Bavaria S40 HT (2014 - 2022) 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 S40 HT delivers speeds of up to 32 knots.

Accommodation

The Bavaria Yachts S40 HT offers a versatile accommodation layout that caters to both day boating enthusiasts and those who may occasionally seek overnight or weekend getaways. Additionally, its maximum guest capacity of four ensures there's ample space for a small group of friends or family, making it suitable for day outings with the possibility of occasional overnight or weekend use. Conversely, some of its rivals like the Bavaria Yachts S40 Open, Sessa Marine C42, Galeon 410 HTC and Galeon 405 HTS with their simpler two cabin configurations may be better suited for day boating enthusiasts who prioritize open-water adventures and occasional overnight escapes.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Bavaria Yachts S40 HT holds its own at a respectable 25 knots and a maximum speed of 32 knots. However, the Sessa Marine C42 surpasses this slightly with an impressive cruising speed of 26 knots signalling a lean towards more dynamic performance capabilities. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Galeon 410 HTC, 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 Galeon 405 HTS impresses with its extensive range of 1,732 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The shallow draft of the Sessa Marine C42 allows it to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Sessa Marine C42 is especially impressive, with a top speed of 36 knots and cruising speed of 26 knots.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Bavaria S40 HT 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.
