Princess Y80 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 planing hull of the Y80 delivers speeds of up to 32 knots.

Accommodation

If hosting guests overnight is your top priority, then the Princess Y80 offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 8 guests with its 4 cabin layout option. Nonetheless, competitors like the Princess Princess S80 and Pearl Yachts 82 have a slight edge in guest accommodation, with the capacity to sleep up to 10 guests in 5 cabins. This makes them more suitable for those looking to maximize the number of family and friends accommodated onboard. The Y80 benefits from a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, hull side windows and a walk-in wardrobe is a standout and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. The Schaefer Yachts Schaefer 25M is tailored for somewhat smaller groupsoffering up to 3 cabins, yet can still deliver an outstanding level of comfort for family vacations.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Princess Y80 delivers a steady 25 knots and can't keep up with its faster competitors such as the Princess Princess S80 with an impressive cruising speed of 25 knots or the Princess Y78 with a respectable cruising speed of 34 knots. The Princess Y80 emphasizes stability and comfort over outright speed, catering to a different set of priorities. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Riviera 78 Open Bridge Deck, with the slowest cruising speed of 7 knots, emphasizes stability and comfort over outright speed and enjoying the journey over the destination.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Riviera 78 Open Bridge Deck impresses with its extensive range of 2,500 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Azimut 26M and Galeon 800 Fly all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The Princess Y78 focuses on performance and efficiency, with a cruising speed of 34 knots. Meanwhile, the Princess Princess S80 offers the best raw performance, with a maximum speed of 38 knots. The Azimut 26M has an impressive gross tonnage of 130GT, the largest of the competitors here.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Princess Y80 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.

When considering a new (or indeed used) yacht, it’s certainly important to wonder about the alternatives in the Princess Y Class range or indeed its competitors. Browse our hand-picked selection of 20 competing models.
