Heesen 50m Aluminium Semi-Displacement 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 semi-displacement hull of the 50m Aluminium Semi-Displacement delivers speeds of up to 23 knots.

Accommodation

If hosting guests overnight is your top priority, then the Heesen 50m Aluminium Semi-Displacement 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 Semi-Displacement benefits from a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, a dressing room and a study is a standout and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. The Gulf Craft 155 and Riva 50Metri are tailored for somewhat smaller groupsoffering up to 5 cabins, yet can still deliver an outstanding level of comfort for family or group vacations.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Heesen 50m Aluminium Semi-Displacement holds its own at a respectable 21 knots and a maximum speed of 23 knots. However, the Mangusta 45 surpasses this slightly with an impressive cruising speed of 23 knots signalling a lean towards more dynamic performance capabilities. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Amels Amels 180, with the slowest cruising speed of 13 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 Westport Yachts Westport W172 impresses with its extensive range of 5,000 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Gulf Craft 155, Custom Line Custom Line 50, Sunseeker 50M Ocean, Heesen 50m Aluminium FDHF, Mangusta 45, Astondoa 151, Wider Yachts Wider 52, Gulf Craft Majesty 160 and Westport Yachts Westport W172 all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels.
