Azimut Magellano 43 HT (2012 - 2022) 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 43 HT delivers speeds of up to 25 knots. Some may even choose their yacht based upon features such as: smooth semi-displacement trawler, liveaboard practicality, design flair, easy owner operation and two+1 liveaboard cabin layout.

Accommodation

If your priority is guest accommodation then the Azimut 43 HT offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 5 guests with its 3 cabin layout option. Most of its rivals, including the Azimut 43 and Ferretti Yachts 450, share the same 5 guest sleeping capacity, making them excellent choices for those seeking to enjoy their yachting experience with family and friends. The 43 HT benefits from a master cabin with an en-suite bathroom and hull side windows is a standout. The Palm Beach PB42 and Beneteau Yachts 44, although designed for slightly smaller groups of 4 guests in 2 cabins, still offer an exceptional level of comfort for short trips and overnight getaways.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Azimut 43 HT has been designed for those not in a hurry, with the slowest cruising speed of the group at 17 knots and a top speed of 25 knots. The Azimut 43 HT 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 Palm Beach PB42 which has an impressive cruising speed of 25 knots powered by its twin 510hp Volvo Penta D11-IPS650 engines and can reach a top speed of 32 knots. This is closely followed by the Ferretti Yachts 450 with a notable cruising speed of 27 knots and top speed of 31 knots.

The Palm Beach PB42 and Cranchi T43 Trawler all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The Ferretti Yachts 450 focuses on performance and efficiency, with a cruising speed of 27 knots. Meanwhile, the Palm Beach PB42 offers the best raw performance, with a maximum speed of 32 knots.
