Ferretti Yachts 860 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 Ferretti 860 has won 2 awards, most recently for "Best Layout"). Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the planing hull of the Ferretti 860 delivers speeds of up to 32 knots. Some may even choose their yacht based upon features such as: flybridge with superyacht confidence, two or four-cabin layout options, smartly sophisticated salon and cool, minimalist fly.

Accommodation

If accommodating guests overnight is your main concern, then the Ferretti Yachts Ferretti 860 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 Azimut 26M and Sirena Yachts 88 offer slightly more guest accommodation sleeping up to 10 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 Ferretti 860 features a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, a dressing room and a dressing table and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. Equivalently, the Sanlorenzo SL86 and Ferretti Yachts 850 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 Ferretti Yachts Ferretti 860 holds its own at a respectable 27 knots and a maximum speed of 32 knots. However, the Princess Y85 surpasses this slightly with an impressive cruising speed of 30 knots signalling a lean towards more dynamic performance capabilities. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Sanlorenzo SD90, with the slowest cruising speed of 15 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 Sirena Yachts 88 impresses with its extensive range of 2,100 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The shallow draft of the Azimut 26M allows it to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Princess Y85 is especially impressive, with a top speed of 32 knots and cruising speed of 30 knots. The Sanlorenzo SD90 has an impressive gross tonnage of 155GT, the largest of the competitors here.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Ferretti Yachts 860 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.
