Custom Line 50 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 Custom Line Custom Line 50 which offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 12 guests with its 5 cabin layout option does not match its rivals. Many of its competitors including the Gulf Craft Majesty 160 offer slightly more guest accommodation sleeping up to 14 guests in 7 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 Custom Line 50 features a master cabin with a his and hers en-suite bathroom, a private terrace and a walk-in wardrobe and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. Equivalently, the Sanlorenzo 50Steel also offer 5 cabins, but with facilities for 10 guests, however they still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family or group vacations.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Wider Yachts W165 impresses with its extensive range of 5,000 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Sunseeker 50M Ocean, Heesen 50m Aluminium FDHF, Heesen 50m Aluminium Semi-Displacement, Dynamiq G 500 Hybrid, Wider Yachts W165 and Gulf Craft Majesty 160 all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Heesen 50m Aluminium Semi-Displacement is especially impressive, with a top speed of 23 knots and cruising speed of 21 knots. The Sunseeker 50M Ocean has an impressive gross tonnage of 500GT, the largest of the competitors here.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Custom Line 50 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.
