Mangusta Oceano 60 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 displacement hull of the 60 delivers speeds of up to 17 knots.

Accommodation

If your priority is guest accommodation then the Mangusta 60 offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 12 guests with its 5 cabin layout option. The 60 benefits from a full-beam master cabin with a his and hers en-suite bathroom, a study and an owners balcony is a standout and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. The Sanlorenzo 62Steel and Heesen 60m, although designed for slightly smaller groups of 12 guests in 6 cabins, still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family or group getaways.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Mangusta 60 has been designed for those not in a hurry, with the slowest cruising speed of the group at 12 knots and a top speed of 17 knots. The Mangusta 60 emphasizes stability and comfort over outright speed and its target audience will be those who enjoy the journey over the destination. The title for the fastest cruising speed goes to the Heesen 6500 which has an impressive cruising speed of 21 knots powered by its twin 4,615hp MTU 16V 4000 M93L engines and can reach a top speed of 24 knots. This is closely followed by the Amels Amels 206 with a notable cruising speed of 13 knots and top speed of 16 knots.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Amels Amels 206 impresses with its extensive range of 5,000 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The shallow draft of the Benetti 55M allows it to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Heesen 6500 is especially impressive, with a top speed of 24 knots and cruising speed of 21 knots. The Sanlorenzo 62Steel has an impressive gross tonnage of 1,350GT, the largest of the competitors here.
