Cantiere delle Marche RJ 102 Rivals

Which yacht is best for you? As always, it’s all about personal choice.

Accommodation

If accommodating guests overnight is your main concern, then the Cantiere delle Marche RJ 102 which offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 8 guests with its 4 cabin layout option does not match its rivals. Many of its competitors including the Gulf Craft Majesty 100 Terrace and Ferretti Yachts 1000 S offer slightly more guest accommodation sleeping up to 11 guests in 5 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 RJ 102 features a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, a dressing table and a sofa and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. Equivalently, the Sanlorenzo SX100 also offer 4 cabins, but with facilities for 8 guests, however they still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family vacations.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Cantiere delle Marche RJ 102 has been designed for those not in a hurry, with the slowest cruising speed of the group at 10 knots and a top speed of 13 knots. The Cantiere delle Marche RJ 102 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 Monte Carlo Yachts MCY 105 Skylounge which has an impressive cruising speed of 21 knots powered by its twin 2,400hp MTU 16V 2000 M96 engines and can reach a top speed of 26 knots. This is closely followed by the Gulf Craft Majesty 100 Terrace with a notable cruising speed of 19 knots and top speed of 23 knots.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Horizon FD100 Skyline impresses with its extensive range of 2,000 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Gulf Craft Majesty 100 Terrace, Horizon FD100 Skyline, Ocean Alexander 32L, Sanlorenzo SX100 and Monte Carlo Yachts MCY 105 Skylounge all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Monte Carlo Yachts MCY 105 Skylounge is especially impressive, with a top speed of 26 knots and cruising speed of 21 knots. The Sanlorenzo SX100 has an impressive gross tonnage of 211GT, the largest of the competitors here.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Cantiere delle Marche RJ 102 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.
