Which yacht is best for you? As always, it’s all about personal choice.
If your priority is guest accommodation then the Fountaine Pajot P80 offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 14 guests with its 7 cabin layout option. Some of its rivals, including the Lagoon Seventy 8, share the same 14 guest sleeping capacity, making them excellent choices for those seeking to enjoy their yachting experience with family and friends. The P80 benefits from a master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, hull side windows and a dressing table is a standout and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. The Sunreef Yachts 80 Sunreef and Silent Yachts 80 Closed, although designed for slightly smaller groups of 12 guests in 5 cabins, still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family or group getaways.
Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Lagoon Seventy 8 impresses with its extensive range of 4,000 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The VisionF 80, VisionF 82 and VisionF 80 NG all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The Horizon PC74 focuses on performance and efficiency, with a cruising speed of 20 knots. Meanwhile, the Bluegame BGM75 offers the best raw performance, with a maximum speed of 23 knots.
Despite stiff competition, the Fountaine Pajot Power 80 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.
