Bavaria Virtess 420 Coupé Rivals

Accommodation

If your priority is guest accommodation then the Bavaria Yachts 420 Coupé offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 6 guests with its 3 cabin layout option. Most of its rivals, including the Sealine C430 and Sealine C390, share the same 6 guest sleeping capacity, making them excellent choices for those seeking to enjoy their yachting experience with family and friends. The 420 Coupé benefits from a master cabin with an en-suite bathroom and hull side windows is a standout. The Riviera 395 and Nimbus 365 Coupé, although designed for slightly smaller groups of 5 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 Bavaria Yachts 420 Coupé holds its own at a respectable 28 knots and a maximum speed of 35 knots. However, the Sessa Marine C42 surpasses this slightly with an impressive cruising speed of 26 knots signalling a lean towards more dynamic performance capabilities. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Nimbus 365 Coupé, with the slowest cruising speed of 27 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 Fairline 45 GT impresses with its extensive range of 1,196 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Sessa Marine C42 and Galeon 450 HTC all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The Jeanneau 46 focuses on performance and efficiency, with a cruising speed of 30 knots. Meanwhile, the Sessa Marine C42 offers the best raw performance, with a maximum speed of 36 knots.
