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 580 Motoryacht delivers speeds of up to 17 knots.
If accommodating guests overnight is your main concern, then the Outer Reef Yachts 580 Motoryacht which offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 6 guests with its 3 cabin layout option does not match its rivals. Many of its competitors including the Sundeck Yachts 580 offer slightly more guest accommodation sleeping up to 8 guests in 4 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 580 Motoryacht features a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom and hull side windows. Equivalently, the Nordhavn N59CP and Fleming Yachts Fleming 55 also offer 3 cabins, but with facilities for 6 guests, however they still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family vacations.
When it comes to cruising speed, the Outer Reef Yachts 580 Motoryacht has been designed for those not in a hurry, with the slowest cruising speed of the group at 13 knots and a top speed of 17 knots. The Outer Reef Yachts 580 Motoryacht emphasizes stability and comfort over outright speed and its target audience will be those who enjoy the journey over the destination.

This is closely followed by the Outer Reef Yachts 610 Motoryacht with a notable cruising speed of 18 knots and top speed of 23 knots.
