Outer Reef Yachts Adventure 780 Rivals

Accommodation

If accommodating guests overnight is your main concern, then the Outer Reef Yachts Adventure 780 which offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 8 guests with its 4 cabin layout option does not match its rivals. Many of its competitors including the Princess X80 and Sirena Yachts 88 offer slightly more guest accommodation sleeping up to 10 guests in 5 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 Adventure 780 features a master cabin and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. Equivalently, the Numarine 26 XP and Sanlorenzo SX88 also offer 4 cabins, but with facilities for 8 guests, however they still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family vacations.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Outer Reef Yachts Adventure 780 has been designed for those not in a hurry, with the slowest cruising speed of the group at 11 knots and a top speed of 12 knots. The Outer Reef Yachts Adventure 780 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 Princess X80 which has an impressive cruising speed of 25 knots powered by its twin 1,900hp MAN V12-1900 engines and can reach a top speed of 31 knots. This is closely followed by the Sirena Yachts 88 with a notable cruising speed of 17 knots and top speed of 25 knots.

Range is an important consideration in judging an explorer yacht's adequacy for long voyages, the Outer Reef Yachts Adventure 780 has a respectable range of 3,000 nautical miles (nm). However, the Cantiere delle Marche Darwin 86 has the most impressive range of this group setting it apart as the most suitable for extended cruising without the need for frequent refuelling with a standard range of 4,000 nautical miles (nm). It boasts a fuel capacity of 38,400 Litres, ensuring extended time at sea without the need for frequent refuelling. The Numarine 26 XP, though slightly behind, still presents a commendable range of 3,500 nmsuitable for a variety of cruising experiences. On the lower end, the Princess X80 offers a much more limited range of 325 nm, indicating a design potentially more suited for shorter trips or coastal cruising.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Cantiere delle Marche Darwin 86 impresses with its extensive range of 4,000 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Sanlorenzo SX88, Horizon FD80, Princess X80 and Sirena Yachts 88 all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Princess X80 is especially impressive, with a top speed of 31 knots and cruising speed of 25 knots. The Numarine 26 XP has an impressive gross tonnage of 149GT, the largest of the competitors here.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Outer Reef Yachts Adventure 780 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.
