Maiora 36 Exuma Rivals

Accommodation

If accommodating guests overnight is your main concern, then the Maiora Maiora 36 Exuma 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 Benetti 37M 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 Maiora 36 Exuma features a master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, hull side windows and full-standing headroom and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. Equivalently, the Astondoa 110 and Benetti Motopanfilo 37M also offer 5 cabins, but with facilities for 10 guests, however they still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family or group vacations.

Performance

In terms of cruising performance, the Maiora Maiora 36 Exuma leads the way with an impressive cruising speed of 20 knots thanks to its 3 x 2,000hp MAN V12-2000 engines and maximum speed of 32 knots at 2,300rpm. Closely followed by, the Ocean Alexander 37L with a respectable cruising speed of 19 knots. The Astondoa 110 also impresses with a cruising speed of 20 knots. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Benetti 37M, with the slowest cruising speed of 12 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 Benetti 37M impresses with its extensive range of 5,000 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Benetti Motopanfilo 37M, Ocean Alexander 37L, Ocean Alexander 35R and Benetti 37M all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The Astondoa 110 focuses on performance and efficiency, with a cruising speed of 20 knots. Meanwhile, the Ocean Alexander 37L offers the best raw performance, with a maximum speed of 24 knots. The Benetti 37M has an impressive gross tonnage of 395GT, the largest of the competitors here.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Maiora 36 Exuma 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.
