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 MCY 105 Skylounge delivers speeds of up to 26 knots.
If your priority is guest accommodation then the Monte Carlo Yachts MCY 105 Skylounge offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 11 guests with its 5 cabin layout option. Most of its rivals, including the Azimut 32M and Ocean Alexander 32L, share the same 11 guest sleeping capacity, making them excellent choices for those seeking to enjoy their yachting experience with family and friends. The MCY 105 Skylounge benefits from a master cabin is a standout. The Sanlorenzo SX100 and Cantiere delle Marche RJ 102, although designed for slightly smaller groups of 8 guests in 4 cabins, still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family getaways.
When it comes to cruising speed, the Monte Carlo Yachts MCY 105 Skylounge holds its own at a respectable 21 knots and a maximum speed of 26 knots. However, the Sanlorenzo SL106A surpasses this slightly with an impressive cruising speed of 24 knots signalling a lean towards more dynamic performance capabilities. The Maiora 30 Convertible also impresses with a cruising speed of 23 knots. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Cantiere delle Marche RJ 102, with the slowest cruising speed of 10 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 Cantiere delle Marche RJ 102 impresses with its extensive range of 4,000 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Azimut 32M, Ocean Alexander 32L, Horizon FD110 Tri-deck, Sanlorenzo SL106A and Maiora 30 Convertible all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Sanlorenzo SL106A is especially impressive, with a top speed of 28 knots and cruising speed of 24 knots. The Azimut 32M has an impressive gross tonnage of 212GT, the largest of the competitors here.
