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 semi-displacement hull of the 37 delivers speeds of up to 17 knots.
If accommodating guests overnight is your main concern, then the Custom Line 37 which offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 10 guests with its 5 cabin layout option does not match its rivals. Many of its competitors including the Sunseeker 120 and Mangusta 39 offer slightly more guest accommodation sleeping up to 12 guests in 6 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 37 features a master cabin with a his and hers en-suite bathroom, a dressing room and a study and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. Equivalently, the Sunseeker 37M and Sanlorenzo SD126 also offer 5 cabins, but with facilities for 10 guests, however they still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family or group vacations.
When it comes to cruising speed, the Custom Line 37 has been designed for those not in a hurry, with the slowest cruising speed of the group at 13 knots and a top speed of 17 knots. The Custom Line 37 emphasizes stability and comfort over outright speed and its target audience will be those who enjoy the journey over the destination. The title for the fastest cruising speed goes to the Sanlorenzo SL118 which has an impressive cruising speed of 26 knots powered by its twin 2,600hp MTU 16V 2000 M96L engines and can reach a top speed of 30 knots. This is closely followed by the Azimut 35 Metri with a notable cruising speed of 21 knots and top speed of 26 knots.
Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Numarine 37 XP impresses with its extensive range of 6,000 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Westport Yachts 125, Gulf Craft 122, Azimut Grande Trideck, Azimut 35 Metri, Ocean Alexander 118, Benetti Motopanfilo 37M and Horizon RP120 all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Sanlorenzo SL118 is especially impressive, with a top speed of 30 knots and cruising speed of 26 knots. The Numarine 37 XP has an impressive gross tonnage of 499GT, the largest of the competitors here.
Despite stiff competition, the Custom Line Navetta 37 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.
