Rodman Muse 54 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 Muse 54 delivers speeds of up to 32 knots.

Accommodation

If accommodating guests overnight is your main concern, then the Rodman Muse 54 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 Fairline 53 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 Muse 54 features a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom and a dressing table. Equivalently, the Ferretti Yachts 550 and Galeon 550 Fly also offer 3 cabins, but with facilities for 6 guests, however they still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family vacations.

Performance

In terms of cruising performance, the Rodman Muse 54 leads the way with an impressive cruising speed of 26 knots thanks to its twin 725hp Volvo Penta D11-IPS950 engines and maximum speed of 32 knots at 2,500rpm. Closely followed by, the Sessa Marine Fly54 with a respectable cruising speed of 26 knots. The Fairline 53 also impresses with a cruising speed of 26 knots. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Prestige 520, with the slowest cruising speed of 20 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 Beneteau Yachts 52 impresses with its extensive range of 1,967 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Galeon 550 Fly and Prestige 520 all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The Azimut Fly 53 focuses on performance and efficiency, with a cruising speed of 26 knots. Meanwhile, the Sessa Marine Fly54 offers the best raw performance, with a maximum speed of 35 knots.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Rodman Muse 54 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.
