Extra X98 RPH 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 X98 RPH delivers speeds of up to 28 knots.

Accommodation

If hosting guests overnight is your top priority, then the Extra Yachts X98 RPH offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 10 guests with its 5 cabin layout option. Nonetheless, competitors like the Sunseeker 100 have a slight edge in guest accommodation, with the capacity to sleep up to 13 guests in 6 cabins. This makes them more suitable for those looking to maximize the number of family and friends accommodated onboard. The X98 RPH benefits from a master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, a study and a dressing table is a standout and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. The Riva 90' Argo is tailored for somewhat smaller groups of 8 guests yet can still deliver an outstanding level of comfort for family vacations.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Extra Yachts X98 RPH delivers a steady 22 knots and can't keep up with its faster competitors such as the Riva 90' Argo with an impressive cruising speed of 26 knots or the Riva 102' Corsaro Super with a respectable cruising speed of 23 knots. The Extra Yachts X98 RPH 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 Princess X95, with the slowest cruising speed of 18 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 Princess X95 impresses with its extensive range of 2,000 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Astondoa 100 and Princess X95 all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Riva 90' Argo is especially impressive, with a top speed of 30 knots and cruising speed of 26 knots. The Riva 102' Corsaro Super has an impressive gross tonnage of 171GT, the largest of the competitors here.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Extra X98 RPH 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.
