Amels 220 (2018 - 2020) 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 displacement hull of the 220 delivers speeds of up to 17 knots.

Accommodation

If hosting guests overnight is your top priority, then the Amels Amels 220 offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 14 guests with its 7 cabin layout option. Nonetheless, competitors like the Benetti 68M have a slight edge in guest accommodation, with the capacity to sleep up to 16 guests in 8 cabins. This makes them more suitable for those looking to maximize the number of family and friends accommodated onboard. The Amels 220 benefits from a master cabin with a his and hers en-suite bathroom, a dressing room and a study is a standout and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. The Amels Amels 242 and Sanlorenzo 64Steel are tailored for somewhat smaller groups of 12 guests yet can still deliver an outstanding level of comfort for family or group vacations.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Amels Amels 220 has been designed for those not in a hurry, with the slowest cruising speed of the group at 12 knots and a top speed of 17 knots. The Amels Amels 220 emphasizes stability and comfort over outright speed and its target audience will be those who enjoy the journey over the destination. The title for the fastest cruising speed goes to the Heesen 6500 which has an impressive cruising speed of 21 knots powered by its twin 4,615hp MTU 16V 4000 M93L engines and can reach a top speed of 24 knots. This is closely followed by the Tankoa Yachts Bolide with a notable cruising speed of 16 knots and top speed of 18 knots.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Tankoa Yachts S701 impresses with its extensive range of 6,000 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Tankoa Yachts S621, Benetti 63M and Heesen 6500 all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Heesen 6500 is especially impressive, with a top speed of 24 knots and cruising speed of 21 knots. The Tankoa Yachts Bolide has an impressive gross tonnage of 1,800GT, the largest of the competitors here.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Amels 220 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.
