Majesty 160 Rivals

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

Accommodation

If your priority is guest accommodation then the Gulf Craft Majesty 160 offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 14 guests with its 7 cabin layout option. Most of its rivals, including the Wider Yachts W165 and Tankoa Yachts S501, share the same 14 guest sleeping capacity, making them excellent choices for those seeking to enjoy their yachting experience with family and friends. The Majesty 160 benefits from a master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, a dressing room and a study is a standout and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. The Riva 50Metri and Custom Line Custom Line 50, although designed for slightly smaller groups of 10 guests in 5 cabins, still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family or group getaways.

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 Custom Line Custom Line 50, Heesen 50m Aluminium FDHF, Heesen 50m Aluminium Semi-Displacement and Dynamiq G 500 Hybrid 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 Tankoa Yachts S501 has an impressive gross tonnage of 500GT, the largest of the competitors here.
