Which yacht is best for you? As always, it’s all about personal choice. Some people choose a yacht on its characteristics (incidentally the 50m Aluminium FDHF has won a staggering 6 awards, most recently for "Green Yachts"). Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the fast displacement hull of the 50m Aluminium FDHF delivers speeds of up to 16 knots.
If hosting guests overnight is your top priority, then the Heesen 50m Aluminium FDHF offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 12 guests with its 6 cabin layout option. Nonetheless, competitors like the Gulf Craft Majesty 160 and Wider Yachts Wider 52 have a slight edge in guest accommodation, with the capacity to sleep up to 14 guests in 7 cabins. This makes them more suitable for those looking to maximize the number of family and friends accommodated onboard. The 50m Aluminium FDHF benefits from a full-beam 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 Wider Yachts Wider 150 and Custom Line Custom Line 50 are tailored for somewhat smaller groups of 11 guests yet can still deliver an outstanding level of comfort for family or group vacations.
When it comes to cruising speed, the Heesen 50m Aluminium FDHF delivers a steady 14 knots and can't keep up with its faster competitors such as the Heesen 50m Aluminium Semi-Displacement with an impressive cruising speed of 21 knots or the Westport Yachts Westport W172 with a respectable cruising speed of 19 knots. The Heesen 50m Aluminium FDHF 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 Wider Yachts Wider 150, with the slowest cruising speed of 13 knots, emphasizes stability and comfort over outright speed and enjoying the journey over the destination.
Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Westport Yachts Westport W172 impresses with its extensive range of 5,000 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Custom Line Custom Line 50, Sunseeker 50M Ocean, Heesen 50m Aluminium Semi-Displacement, Wider Yachts Wider 150 and Dynamiq G 500 Hybrid all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Heesen 50m Aluminium Semi-Displacement is especially impressive, with a top speed of 23 knots and cruising speed of 21 knots. The Sunseeker 50M Ocean has an impressive gross tonnage of 500GT, the largest of the competitors here.
Despite stiff competition, the Heesen 50m Aluminium FDHF 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.
