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 semi-displacement hull of the 28R Enclosed delivers speeds of up to 25 knots.
If your priority is guest accommodation then the Ocean Alexander 28R Enclosed offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 10 guests with its 5 cabin layout option. Most of its rivals, including the Horizon FD87 and Ocean Alexander 90R Enclosed, share the same 10 guest sleeping capacity, making them excellent choices for those seeking to enjoy their yachting experience with family and friends. The 28R Enclosed benefits from a master cabin with a his and hers en-suite bathroom, a skylight and a dressing table is a standout. The Sanlorenzo SX88, although designed for slightly smaller groups of 8 guests in 4 cabins, still offers an exceptional level of comfort for family getaways.
When it comes to cruising speed, the Ocean Alexander 28R Enclosed holds its own at a respectable 18 knots and a maximum speed of 25 knots. However, the Ocean Alexander 90R Enclosed surpasses this slightly with an impressive cruising speed of 18 knots signalling a lean towards more dynamic performance capabilities. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Horizon FD92 Tri Deck, with the slowest cruising speed of 16 knots, emphasizes stability and comfort over outright speed and enjoying the journey over the destination.
Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Sirena Yachts 88 impresses with its extensive range of 2,100 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The shallow draft of the Ocean Alexander 28E allows it to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The Sanlorenzo SX88 focuses on performance and efficiency, with a cruising speed of 20 knots. Meanwhile, the Ocean Alexander 90R Enclosed offers the best raw performance, with a maximum speed of 27 knots. The Ocean Alexander 28E has an impressive gross tonnage of 163GT, the largest of the competitors here.
Despite stiff competition, the Ocean Alexander 28R Enclosed 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.
