Nord Star 49 SCY (2018 - 2022) Rivals

Accommodation

If your priority is guest accommodation then the Nord Star 49 SCY offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 6 guests with its 3 cabin layout option. Most of its rivals, including the Okean Yachts 50X and Bluegame BG54, share the same 6 guest sleeping capacity, making them excellent choices for those seeking to enjoy their yachting experience with family and friends. The 49 SCY benefits from a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom and hull side windows is a standout. The Targa Targa 44, although designed for slightly smaller groups of 5 guests in 2 cabins, still offers an exceptional level of comfort for short trips and overnight getaways.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Nord Star 49 SCY has been designed for those not in a hurry, with the slowest cruising speed of the group at 26 knots and a top speed of 34 knots. The Nord Star 49 SCY 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 Targa Targa 46 which has an impressive cruising speed of 25 knots powered by its twin 440hp Volvo Penta D6-440 engines and can reach a top speed of 40 knots.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Sargo Boats 45 impresses with its extensive range of 440 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Targa Targa 44 and Targa Targa 46 all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The Bluegame BG54 focuses on performance and efficiency, with a cruising speed of 30 knots. Meanwhile, the Targa Targa 46 offers the best raw performance, with a maximum speed of 40 knots.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Nord Star 49 SCY 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.
