Which yacht is best for you? As always, it’s all about personal choice. Some people choose a yacht on its characteristics (incidentally the 72 has won 2 awards, most recently for "Flybridge (over 60ft)"). Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the planing hull of the 72 delivers speeds of up to 32 knots. Some may even choose their yacht based upon features such as: four-cabin, two stateroom design, sharp exterior styling, 30 knots, massive flybridge and salon and tender garage.
If your priority is guest accommodation then the Pearl Yachts 72 offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 8 guests with its 4 cabin layout option. Most of its rivals, including the Numarine 70 and Absolute 72 FLY, share the same 8 guest sleeping capacity, making them excellent choices for those seeking to enjoy their yachting experience with family and friends. The 72 benefits from a master cabin with an en-suite bathroom and a dressing table is a standout. The Pershing GTX70, although designed for slightly smaller groups of 6 guests in 3 cabins, still offers an exceptional level of comfort for family getaways.
When it comes to cruising speed, the Pearl Yachts 72 delivers a steady 25 knots and can't keep up with its faster competitors such as the Princess Y72 with an impressive cruising speed of 30 knots or the Numarine 70 with a respectable cruising speed of 28 knots. The Pearl Yachts 72 emphasizes stability and comfort over outright speed, catering to a different set of priorities. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Monte Carlo Yachts 70, with the slowest cruising speed of 21 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 Princess Y72 impresses with its extensive range of 1,500 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Gulf Craft Majesty 72 and Sirena Yachts 68 all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Princess Y72 is especially impressive, with a top speed of 35 knots and cruising speed of 30 knots.
Despite stiff competition, the Pearl 72 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.
