Aicon 70 Vivere Video Review: A Flybridge for Family Weekends

The Aicon 70 Vivere is a 21.74 m (71 ft 4 in) flybridge from Aicon Yachts in Italy. We filmed it in Cannes after the 2026 show, in the US configuration. It has a hydraulic swim platform that can carry a tender or jet ski, a flybridge with a summer kitchen and a beam to beam sunbed, a saloon with a marble galley and a lower helm, and three or four cabins below. Twin 1300 HP engines give 27 knots cruise and 31 knots top speed, and the boat stays quiet on the way there.

Built for weekends with family

The Aicon 70 Vivere is sized for a family and their friends. There is space to eat outside on three levels, a galley that works like a home kitchen and cabins with their own bathrooms.

Aicon makes the metalwork and the woodwork in house, and it shows in the details: thick doors with magnetic latches, suede walls on the lower deck and an engine room that is laid out so a captain can find anything fast.

Swim platform and aft deck

Swim platform

The hydraulic swim platform has fold out steps and can carry a jet ski or a tender. A flush gate with the Aicon bird etched in Plexiglas leads to the crew cabin and the engine room. Up on the aft deck, C shaped seating wraps a fold out table, with side benches and a drop down shade built in.

Saloon, galley and lower helm

Main Saloon

The aft window folds up and the door opens fully, so the saloon and the aft deck become one space. The galley sits on starboard in a U shape with real marble, a Garmin repeater, a home size fridge and a hob with built in extraction. Forward, the lounge has a pop up TV, a wine cooler, a drawer for wine glasses and a table that expands to seat up to 12.

Nothing rattled at about 25 knots.
Lower helm.

Cabins

Primary Cabin

The lower deck has suede walls and carpet, with the breaker panel hidden behind a mirror. The full beam owner cabin has an office desk, a queen plus bed, a vanity with a mirror and a felt jewelry tray, a safe under a tray, a TV and an en suite with a bench in the shower. Our 1.85 m presenter had headroom to spare.

The verdict

The Aicon 70 Vivere is a family boat that does not feel like a compromise. The swim platform, the flybridge kitchen and the marble galley make long days easy, and the quiet ride means guests can talk in the saloon at cruising speed. Below deck the owner cabin, the VIP and the twin all have their own head, and the engine room is one of the tidiest we have seen at this size. If you are looking at 70 ft flybridges, put this one on the list.
