Pershing 108 (2011 - 2021) 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 108 has won 1 award, most recently for "Best Production Motor Yacht (24-40m)"). Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the planing hull of the 108 delivers speeds of up to 42 knots.

Accommodation

If accommodating guests overnight is your main concern, then the Pershing 108 which offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 8 guests with its 4 cabin layout option does not match its rivals. Many of its competitors including the Mangusta 33 and Astondoa 110 offer slightly more guest accommodation sleeping up to 12 guests in 5 cabins, making them better choices for those seeking to maximise the number of family and friends they can sleep onboard. However, for maximum comfort for the owner, the 108 features a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, a study and a dressing table and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. Equivalently, the Sunseeker 108 and Mangusta 110 also offer 4 cabins, but with facilities for 8 guests, however they still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family vacations.

Performance

In terms of cruising performance, the Pershing 108 leads the way with an impressive cruising speed of 37 knots thanks to its 3 x 1,920hp MTU 12V 2000 M96L engines and maximum speed of 42 knots at 2,450rpm. Closely followed by, the Sunseeker 108 with a respectable cruising speed of 34 knots. The Mangusta 104 REV also impresses with a cruising speed of 30 knots. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Astondoa 110, with the slowest cruising speed of 20 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 Mangusta 33 impresses with its extensive range of 1,150 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Mangusta 104 REV, Sunseeker 108, Mangusta 110 and Mangusta 33 all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Sunseeker 108 is especially impressive, with a top speed of 44 knots and cruising speed of 34 knots. The Mangusta 33 has an impressive gross tonnage of 228GT, the largest of the competitors here.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Pershing 108 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.
