Prestige X70 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 X70 has won 1 award, most recently for "Best Layout (18.5-24m)"). Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the planing hull of the X70 delivers speeds of up to 29 knots.

Accommodation

If your priority is guest accommodation then the Prestige X70 offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 8 guests with its 4 cabin layout option. The X70 benefits from a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, a private stairwell and hull side windows is a standout. The Ferretti Yachts 720 and Monte Carlo Yachts 70, 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 Prestige X70 has been designed for those not in a hurry, with the slowest cruising speed of the group at 20 knots and a top speed of 29 knots. The Prestige X70 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 Pearl Yachts 72 which has an impressive cruising speed of 25 knots powered by its twin 1,400hp MAN V12-1400 engines and can reach a top speed of 32 knots. This is closely followed by the Ferretti Yachts 720 with a notable cruising speed of 28 knots and top speed of 32 knots.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Numarine 22 XP impresses with its extensive range of 2,000 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The shallow draft of the Gulf Craft Majesty 72 allows it to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The Ferretti Yachts 720 focuses on performance and efficiency, with a cruising speed of 28 knots. Meanwhile, the Pearl Yachts 72 offers the best raw performance, with a maximum speed of 32 knots.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Prestige X70 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.
