Sanlorenzo SD90 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 SD90 delivers speeds of up to 17 knots.

Accommodation

If accommodating guests overnight is your main concern, then the Sanlorenzo SD90 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 Arcadia A96 and Ferretti Yachts INFYNITO 90 offer slightly more guest accommodation sleeping up to 12 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 SD90 features a master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, a dressing room and a dressing table and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. Equivalently, the Ferretti Yachts 860 and Ocean Alexander 28L 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 Sanlorenzo SD90 delivers a steady 15 knots and can't keep up with its faster competitors such as the Ferretti Yachts 860 with an impressive cruising speed of 27 knots or the Azimut 26M with a respectable cruising speed of 24 knots. The Sanlorenzo SD90 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 Custom Line Navetta 30, with the slowest cruising speed of 13 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 Custom Line Navetta 30 impresses with its extensive range of 2,150 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Ocean Alexander 28E and Azimut 26M all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Ferretti Yachts 860 is especially impressive, with a top speed of 32 knots and cruising speed of 27 knots. The Extra Yachts X96 Triplex has an impressive gross tonnage of 238GT, the largest of the competitors here.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Sanlorenzo SD90 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.
