Which yacht is best for you? As always, it’s all about personal choice. Some people choose a yacht on its characteristics (incidentally the S7 has won 2 awards, most recently for "Above 45ft"). Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the planing hull of the S7 delivers speeds of up to 36 knots. Some may even choose their yacht based upon features such as: thrilling s sportsbridge design, triple 800hp pod drives, four cabins, aft deck lounge and 36-knot top speed.
If your priority is guest accommodation then the Azimut S7 offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 8 guests with its 4 cabin layout option. Most of its rivals, including the Princess S65 and Galeon 650, share the same 8 guest sleeping capacity, making them excellent choices for those seeking to enjoy their yachting experience with family and friends. The S7 benefits from a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, hull side windows and a walk-in wardrobe is a standout. The Riva 63' Virtus and Riva 66' Ribelle, although designed for slightly smaller groups of 6 guests in 3 cabins, still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family getaways.
When it comes to cruising speed, the Azimut S7 delivers a steady 26 knots and can't keep up with its faster competitors such as the Riva 68' Diable with an impressive cruising speed of 34 knots or the Riva 63' Virtus with a respectable cruising speed of 35 knots. The Azimut S7 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 Galeon 650, with the slowest cruising speed of 21 knots, emphasizes stability and comfort over outright speed and enjoying the journey over the destination.
Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Sunseeker 74 impresses with its extensive range of 1,028 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The shallow draft of the Galeon 650 allows it to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The Princess S66 focuses on performance and efficiency, with a cruising speed of 36 knots. Meanwhile, the Riva 68' Diable offers the best raw performance, with a maximum speed of 40 knots.
Despite stiff competition, the Azimut S7 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.
