Maritimo S75 Rivals

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

Accommodation

If hosting guests overnight is your top priority, then the Maritimo S75 offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 10 guests with its 4 cabin layout option. Nonetheless, competitors like the Princess S72 have a slight edge in guest accommodation, with the capacity to sleep up to 10 guests in 5 cabins. This makes them more suitable for those looking to maximize the number of family and friends accommodated onboard. The S75 benefits from a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, hull side windows and a walk-in wardrobe is a standout. The Pershing 74 and Bluegame BG74 are tailored for somewhat smaller groups of 7 guests yet can still deliver an outstanding level of comfort for family vacations.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Maritimo S75 has been designed for those not in a hurry, with the slowest cruising speed of the group at 22 knots and a top speed of 28 knots. The Maritimo S75 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 Pershing 74 which has an impressive cruising speed of 40 knots powered by its twin 1,920hp MTU 12V 2000 M96L engines and can reach a top speed of 44 knots.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Sunseeker 74 impresses with its extensive range of 800 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The shallow draft of the Pershing 74 allows it to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Pershing 74 is especially impressive, with a top speed of 44 knots and cruising speed of 40 knots.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Maritimo S75 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.
