Sanlorenzo 46Steel (2010 - 2020) 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 semi-displacement hull of the 46 delivers speeds of up to 17 knots. Some may even choose their yacht based upon features such as: tri deck yacht design, five en suite cabins and 9 berth crew quarters.

Accommodation

If accommodating guests overnight is your main concern, then the Sanlorenzo 46 which offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 10 guests with its 5 cabin layout option does not match its rivals. Many of its competitors including the Sunseeker 50M Ocean offer slightly more guest accommodation sleeping up to 12 guests in 6 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 46 features a master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, full-standing headroom and a walk-in wardrobe and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. Equivalently, the Mangusta 46 and Sanlorenzo Alloy also offer 5 cabins, but with facilities for 12 guests, however they still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family or group vacations.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Sanlorenzo 46 delivers a steady 15 knots and can't keep up with its faster competitors such as the Sanlorenzo Alloy with an impressive cruising speed of 18 knots or the Sunseeker 50M Ocean with a respectable cruising speed of 19 knots. The Sanlorenzo 46 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 Mangusta 46, with the slowest cruising speed of 12 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 Numarine 45 XP impresses with its extensive range of 4,000 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The shallow draft of the Sunseeker 50M Ocean allows it to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The Sunseeker 50M Ocean focuses on performance and efficiency, with a cruising speed of 19 knots. Meanwhile, the Sanlorenzo Alloy offers the best raw performance, with a maximum speed of 21 knots. The Sunseeker 50M Ocean has an impressive gross tonnage of 500GT, the largest of the competitors here.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Sanlorenzo 46Steel 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.
