Princess Y72 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 Y72 has won 1 award, most recently for "Flybridge (over 60ft)"). Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the planing hull of the Y72 delivers speeds of up to 35 knots.

Accommodation

If your priority is guest accommodation then the Princess Y72 offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 8 guests with its 4 cabin layout option. The Y72 benefits from a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, hull side windows and a walk-in wardrobe is a standout. The Azimut 72 and Numarine 70, although designed for slightly smaller groups of 8 guests in 4 cabins, still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family getaways.

Performance

In terms of cruising performance, the Princess Y72 leads the way with an impressive cruising speed of 30 knots thanks to its twin 1,650hp MAN V12-1650 engines and maximum speed of 35 knots at 2,300rpm. Closely followed by, the Princess F70 with a respectable cruising speed of 27 knots. The Numarine 70 also impresses with a cruising speed of 28 knots. 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.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Hatteras M75 Panacera impresses with its extensive range of 950 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 Sunseeker 68 focuses on performance and efficiency, with a cruising speed of 30 knots. Meanwhile, the Princess F70 offers the best raw performance, with a maximum speed of 36 knots.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Princess Y72 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.
