Monte Carlo Yachts MCY 96 (2017 - 2023) 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 96 has won a staggering 3 awards, most recently for "Best Flybridge Yacht (above 80ft to 110ft)"). Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the planing hull of the 96 delivers speeds of up to 27 knots.

Accommodation

If your priority is guest accommodation then the Monte Carlo Yachts 96 offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 12 guests with its 5 cabin layout option. Most of its rivals, including the Ferretti Yachts 960 and Custom Line 28, share the same 12 guest sleeping capacity, making them excellent choices for those seeking to enjoy their yachting experience with family and friends. The 96 benefits from a master cabin with a private stairwell, full-standing headroom and a walk-in wardrobe is a standout and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. The Sunseeker 28M and Gulf Craft 95 SUV, although designed for slightly smaller groups of 8 guests in 4 cabins, still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family getaways.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Monte Carlo Yachts 96 holds its own at a respectable 24 knots and a maximum speed of 27 knots. However, the Ferretti Yachts 960 surpasses this slightly with an impressive cruising speed of 27 knots signalling a lean towards more dynamic performance capabilities. The Pearl Yachts 95 also impresses with a cruising speed of 26 knots. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Benetti Delfino 95, with the slowest cruising speed of 13 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 Benetti Delfino 95 impresses with its extensive range of 2,320 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The shallow draft of the Gulf Craft 90 allows it to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Ferretti Yachts 960 is especially impressive, with a top speed of 31 knots and cruising speed of 27 knots. The Gulf Craft 95 SUV has an impressive gross tonnage of 200GT, the largest of the competitors here.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Monte Carlo Yachts MCY 96 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.
