Absolute 52 FLY (Mk2, 2017 - 2022) Rivals

Which yacht is best for you? As always, it’s all about personal choice. Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the planing hull of the 52 FLY delivers speeds of up to 33 knots. Some may even choose their yacht based upon features such as: excellent three-cabin design, bright salon with galley aft, ips, 30-knot performance and superb decks include forward lounge.

Accommodation

If your priority is guest accommodation then the Absolute 52 FLY offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 6 guests with its 3 cabin layout option. The 52 FLY benefits from a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, hull side windows and a dressing table is a standout. The Princess F49 and Sunseeker 52, although designed for slightly smaller groups of 6 guests in 3 cabins, still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family getaways.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Absolute 52 FLY delivers a steady 25 knots and can't keep up with its faster competitors such as the Princess F50 with an impressive cruising speed of 30 knots or the Princess F49 with a respectable cruising speed of 31 knots. The Absolute 52 FLY emphasizes stability and comfort over outright speed, catering to a different set of priorities. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Maritimo M51, with the slowest cruising speed of 24 knots, emphasizes stability and comfort over outright speed and enjoying the journey over the destination.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Maritimo M51 impresses with its extensive range of 722 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The shallow draft of the Gulf Craft 48 allows it to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The Princess F49 focuses on performance and efficiency, with a cruising speed of 31 knots. Meanwhile, the Princess F50 offers the best raw performance, with a maximum speed of 36 knots.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Absolute 52 FLY stands out with notable features and design elements. These yachts cater to a wide range of preferences and needs, making the choice a matter of personal taste and specific requirements in the world of luxury yachting.
