Absolute 58 FLY (2016 - 2020) Rivals

Which yacht is best for you? As always, it’s all about personal choice. Some people choose a yacht on its characteristics (incidentally the 58 FLY has won 2 awards, most recently for "Best Flybridge Yacht (above 55ft to 80ft)"). Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the planing hull of the 58 FLY delivers speeds of up to 32 knots.

Accommodation

If accommodating guests overnight is your main concern, then the Absolute 58 FLY 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 Princess F55 and Fairline 58 offer slightly more guest accommodation sleeping up to 7 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 58 FLY features a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, hull side windows and a dressing table. Equivalently, the Ferretti Yachts 550 and Sunseeker 52 also offer 3 cabins, but with facilities for 6 guests, however they still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family vacations.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Absolute 58 FLY holds its own at a respectable 23 knots and a maximum speed of 32 knots. However, the Fairline 58 surpasses this slightly with an impressive cruising speed of 25 knots signalling a lean towards more dynamic performance capabilities. The Fairline 53 also impresses with a cruising speed of 26 knots. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Gulf Craft 55, 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 Maritimo M59 impresses with its extensive range of 1,125 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The shallow draft of the Astondoa As5 allows it to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The Ferretti Yachts 580 focuses on performance and efficiency, with a cruising speed of 26 knots. Meanwhile, the Fairline 58 offers the best raw performance, with a maximum speed of 34 knots.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Absolute 58 FLY 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.
