Azimut Magellano 66 (Mk1, 2014 - 2021) 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 66 has won 2 awards, most recently for "Passagemakers"). Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the semi-displacement hull of the 66 delivers speeds of up to 23 knots.

Accommodation

If your priority is guest accommodation then the Azimut 66 offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 8 guests with its 4 cabin layout option. Most of its rivals, including the Azimut 66 and Gulf Craft 70, share the same 8 guest sleeping capacity, making them excellent choices for those seeking to enjoy their yachting experience with family and friends. The 66 benefits from a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom is a standout. The Grand Banks GB60 and Greenline 65 OC, although designed for slightly smaller groups of 8 guests in 3 cabins, still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family getaways.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Azimut 66 delivers a steady 17 knots and can't keep up with its faster competitors such as the Fairline 68 with an impressive cruising speed of 28 knots or the Azimut 66 with a respectable cruising speed of 26 knots. The Azimut 66 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 Outer Reef Yachts 720 Deluxbridge, with the slowest cruising speed of 19 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 Outer Reef Yachts 720 Deluxbridge impresses with its extensive range of 3,400 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The shallow draft of the Gulf Craft 70 allows it to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Fairline 68 is especially impressive, with a top speed of 32 knots and cruising speed of 28 knots.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Azimut Magellano 66 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.
