Which yacht is best for you? As always, it’s all about personal choice. Some people choose a yacht on its characteristics (incidentally the Atlantis 45 has won 1 award, most recently for "Best Interior Design"). Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the semi-displacement hull of the Atlantis 45 delivers speeds of up to 33 knots.
The Azimut Atlantis 45 offers a versatile accommodation layout that caters to both day boating enthusiasts and those who may occasionally seek overnight or weekend getaways. Additionally, its maximum guest capacity of seven ensures there's ample space for a small group of friends or family, making it suitable for day outings with the possibility of occasional overnight or weekend use. Conversely, some of its rivals like the Wally wallypower50 with its limited cabin configurations for two guests, may be better suited for day boating enthusiasts who prioritize open-water adventures and occasional overnight escapes.
When it comes to cruising speed, the Azimut Atlantis 45 holds its own at a respectable 28 knots and a maximum speed of 33 knots. However, the Windy Boats W46 surpasses this slightly with an impressive cruising speed of 31 knots signalling a lean towards more dynamic performance capabilities. The Wally wallypower50 also impresses with a cruising speed of 30 knots. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Fairline 45 Open, with the slowest cruising speed of 19 knots, emphasizes stability and comfort over outright speed and enjoying the journey over the destination.
Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Fairline 45 GT impresses with its extensive range of 1,196 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The shallow draft of the Jeanneau 46 allows it to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Windy Boats W46 is especially impressive, with a top speed of 40 knots and cruising speed of 31 knots.
Despite stiff competition, the Azimut Atlantis 45 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.
