Absolute 60 FLY Rivals

Which yacht is best for you? As always, it’s all about personal choice. Some people choose a yacht on its characteristics (incidentally the 60 FLY has won 1 award, most recently for "Best Layout (13-20m)"). Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the planing hull of the 60 FLY delivers speeds of up to 31 knots.

Accommodation

If hosting guests overnight is your top priority, then the Absolute 60 FLY offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 6 guests with its 3 cabin layout option. Nonetheless, competitors like the Fairline 58 have a slight edge in guest accommodation, with the capacity to sleep up to 8 guests in 4 cabins. This makes them more suitable for those looking to maximize the number of family and friends accommodated onboard. The 60 FLY benefits from a master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, hull side windows and a walk-in wardrobe is a standout. The Gulf Craft Majesty 62 M is tailored for somewhat smaller groups of 4 guests yet can still deliver an outstanding level of comfort for short trips and overnight vacations.

Performance

In terms of cruising performance, the Absolute 60 FLY leads the way with an impressive cruising speed of 25 knots thanks to its twin 725hp Volvo Penta D11-IPS950 engines and maximum speed of 31 knots at 2,500rpm. Closely followed by, the Fairline 58 with a respectable cruising speed of 25 knots. The Absolute 60 FLY also impresses with a cruising speed of 21 knots. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Schaefer Yachts Schaefer 600, 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 Absolute 60 FLY impresses with its extensive range of 538 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The shallow draft of the Greenline 58 Fly allows it to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Fairline 58 is especially impressive, with a top speed of 34 knots and cruising speed of 25 knots.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Absolute 60 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.
