VisionF 80 NG Rivals

Which yacht is best for you? As always, it’s all about personal choice.

Accommodation

If accommodating guests overnight is your main concern, then the VisionF 80 NG 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 Fountaine Pajot P80 offer slightly more guest accommodation sleeping up to 14 guests in 7 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 80 NG features a master cabin with an en-suite bathroom and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. Equivalently, the Horizon PC74 and Silent Yachts 80 Fly 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 VisionF 80 NG has been designed for those not in a hurry, with the slowest cruising speed of the group at 12 knots and a top speed of 12 knots. The VisionF 80 NG emphasizes stability and comfort over outright speed and its target audience will be those who enjoy the journey over the destination. The title for the fastest cruising speed goes to the Bluegame BGM75 which has an impressive cruising speed of 18 knots powered by its twin 550hp Volvo Penta D8-550 engines and can reach a top speed of 23 knots. This is closely followed by the Horizon PC74 with a notable cruising speed of 20 knots and top speed of 23 knots.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Lagoon Seventy 8 impresses with its extensive range of 4,000 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The shallow draft of the VisionF 80 allows it to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The Horizon PC74 focuses on performance and efficiency, with a cruising speed of 20 knots. Meanwhile, the Bluegame BGM75 offers the best raw performance, with a maximum speed of 23 knots.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the VisionF 80 NG 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.
