Azimut Fly 60 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 Fly 60 has won 2 awards, most recently for "Best Layout (18.5-24m)"). Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the planing hull of the Fly 60 delivers speeds of up to 31 knots. Some may even choose their yacht based upon features such as: smart three-cabin flybridge design, foredeck lounge, 32-knot top speed and optional stern cabin.

Accommodation

If accommodating guests overnight is your main concern, then the Azimut Fly 60 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 58 and Pearl Yachts 62 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 60 features a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom and hull side windows. Equivalently, the Princess S60 and Ferretti Yachts 550 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 60 delivers a steady 26 knots and can't keep up with its faster competitors such as the Princess S60 with an impressive cruising speed of 28 knots or the Princess F62 with a respectable cruising speed of 30 knots. The Azimut Fly 60 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 Gulf Craft 62, 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 Maritimo M59 impresses with its extensive range of 2,500 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Greenline 58 Fly and Galeon 560 Fly all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The Princess F62 focuses on performance and efficiency, with a cruising speed of 30 knots. Meanwhile, the Princess S60 offers the best raw performance, with a maximum speed of 38 knots.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Azimut Fly 60 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.
