Azimut Fly 50 (Mk3, 2018 - 2024) 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 Fly 50 delivers speeds of up to 32 knots. Some may even choose their yacht based upon features such as: excellent flybridge, three cabins, full-beam owner's suite and 30-knot top speed.
Accommodation
If accommodating guests overnight is your main concern, then the Azimut Fly 50 which offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 6 guests with its 3 cabin layout option does not match its rivals. Many of its competitors including the Fairline 53 offer slightly more guest accommodation sleeping up to 8 guests in 4 cabins, making them better choices for those seeking to maximise the number of family and friends they can sleep onboard. However, for maximum comfort for the owner, the Fly 50 features a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom and hull side windows. Equivalently, the Sunseeker 52 and Galeon 510 also offer 3 cabins, but with facilities for 6 guests, however they still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family vacations.
Performance
When it comes to cruising speed, the Azimut Fly 50 delivers a steady 22 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 Sessa Marine Fly54 with a respectable cruising speed of 26 knots. The Azimut Fly 50 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 Absolute 52, with the slowest cruising speed of 20 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 Beneteau Yachts 52 impresses with its extensive range of 1,967 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Astondoa 52 and Gulf Craft 48 all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The Carver Yachts C52 focuses on performance and efficiency, with a cruising speed of 32 knots. Meanwhile, the Princess F50 offers the best raw performance, with a maximum speed of 36 knots.
Summary
Despite stiff competition, the Azimut Fly 50 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.
