Mangusta Oceano 46 Rivals

Which yacht is best for you? As always, it’s all about personal choice. Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the displacement hull of the 46 delivers speeds of up to 15 knots.

Accommodation

If accommodating guests overnight is your main concern, then the Mangusta 46 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 Tankoa Yachts T450 and Sunseeker 50M Ocean offer the same total guests sleeping overnight, but with 6 cabins could be a better choice for those seeking to maximise the number of family and friends they can sleep onboard. However, for maximum comfort for the owner, the 46 features a master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, a dressing room and a study and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. Equivalently, the Sanlorenzo 46 and Sanlorenzo Alloy also offer 5 cabins, but with facilities for 10 guests, however they still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family or group vacations.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Mangusta 46 has been designed for those not in a hurry, with the slowest cruising speed of the group at 12 knots and a top speed of 15 knots. The Mangusta 46 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 Sanlorenzo Alloy which has an impressive cruising speed of 18 knots powered by its twin 1,920hp MTU 12V 2000 M96L engines and can reach a top speed of 21 knots. This is closely followed by the Sunseeker 50M Ocean with a notable cruising speed of 19 knots and top speed of 20 knots.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Benetti Motopanfilo 45M impresses with its extensive range of 4,100 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Sunseeker 50M Ocean and Tankoa Yachts T450 all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The Sunseeker 50M Ocean focuses on performance and efficiency, with a cruising speed of 19 knots. Meanwhile, the Sanlorenzo Alloy offers the best raw performance, with a maximum 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 Mangusta Oceano 46 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.
