Riva 63' Virtus (2012 - 2019) 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 63' Virtus delivers speeds of up to 40 knots.

Accommodation

If hosting guests overnight is your top priority, then the Riva 63' Virtus offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 6 guests with its 3 cabin layout option. Nonetheless, competitors like the Fairline 65 GTO and Fairline 65 GT have a slight edge in guest accommodation, with the capacity to sleep up to 10 guests in 4 cabins. This makes them more suitable for those looking to maximize the number of family and friends accommodated onboard. The 63' Virtus benefits from a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom and hull side windows is a standout. The Wally wallypower58 mk1 is tailored for somewhat smaller groups of 5 guests yet can still deliver an outstanding level of comfort for short trips and overnight vacations.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Riva 63' Virtus holds its own at a respectable 35 knots and a maximum speed of 40 knots. However, the Pershing 70 surpasses this slightly with an impressive cruising speed of 40 knots signalling a lean towards more dynamic performance capabilities. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Fairline Targa 63 GTO, with the slowest cruising speed of 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 Azimut S7 impresses with its extensive range of 805 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The shallow draft of the Pershing 70 allows it to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Pershing 70 is especially impressive, with a top speed of 46 knots and cruising speed of 40 knots.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Riva 63' Virtus 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.
