Azimut S6 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 S6 has won 2 awards, most recently for "Sportscruisers (over 40ft)"). Some may even choose their yacht based upon features such as: hardtop or sportsbridge option, superb aft deck lounge, super-cool owner's stateroom and triple volvo penta ips pod drives.

Accommodation

If hosting guests overnight is your top priority, then the Azimut S6 offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 6 guests with its 3 cabin layout option. Nonetheless, competitors like the Fairline Phantom 65 and Astondoa 677 Coupé have a slight edge in guest accommodation, with the capacity to sleep up to 8 guests in 4 cabins. This makes them more suitable for those looking to maximize the number of family and friends accommodated onboard. The S6 benefits from a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom and hull side windows is a standout. The Riva 56' Rivale is tailored for somewhat smaller groups of 4 guests yet can still deliver an outstanding level of comfort for short trips and overnight vacations.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Azimut S6 delivers a steady 25 knots and can't keep up with its faster competitors such as the Pershing 6X with an impressive cruising speed of 40 knots or the Princess S62 with a respectable cruising speed of 36 knots. The Azimut S6 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 Galeon 560, with the slowest cruising speed of 25 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 Riviera 575 impresses with its extensive range of 727 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The shallow draft of the Galeon 560 allows it to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Pershing 6X is especially impressive, with a top speed of 48 knots and cruising speed of 40 knots.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Azimut S6 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.
