Maritimo S51 (Gen 1, 2018 - 2020) Rivals

Accommodation

If your priority is guest accommodation then the Maritimo S51 offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 5 guests with its 3 cabin layout option. Most of its rivals, including the Sealine C530 and Riviera 505 SUV, share the same 5 guest sleeping capacity, making them excellent choices for those seeking to enjoy their yachting experience with family and friends. The S51 benefits from a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom and a sofa is a standout. The Palm Beach 50 Express and Riviera 4800 Sport Yacht Series II, although designed for slightly smaller groups of 4 guests in 2 cabins, still offer an exceptional level of comfort for short trips and overnight getaways.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Maritimo S51 has been designed for those not in a hurry, with the slowest cruising speed of the group at 25 knots and a top speed of 33 knots. The Maritimo S51 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 Palm Beach 50 Express which has an impressive cruising speed of 35 knots powered by its twin 625hp Volvo Penta D11-IPS800 engines and can reach a top speed of 42 knots.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Palm Beach 50 Express impresses with its extensive range of 862 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The shallow draft of the Palm Beach 50 Express allows it to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Palm Beach 50 Express is especially impressive, with a top speed of 42 knots and cruising speed of 35 knots.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Maritimo S51 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.
