Riva 82' Diva 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 82' Diva has won 1 award, most recently for "Best Exterior Design (24-30m)"). Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the planing hull of the 82' Diva delivers speeds of up to 31 knots.

Accommodation

If hosting guests overnight is your top priority, then the Riva 82' Diva offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 8 guests with its 4 cabin layout option. Nonetheless, competitors like the Azimut Seadeck 9 and Pearl Yachts 82 have a slight edge in guest accommodation, with the capacity to sleep up to guests in 5 cabins. This makes them more suitable for those looking to maximize the number of family and friends accommodated onboard. The 82' Diva benefits from a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, hull side windows and a sofa is a standout. The Schaefer Yachts Schaefer 25M is tailored for somewhat smaller groupsoffering up to 3 cabins, yet can still deliver an outstanding level of comfort for family vacations.

Performance

In terms of cruising performance, the Riva 82' Diva leads the way with an impressive cruising speed of 27 knots thanks to its twin 1,800hp MAN V12-1800 engines and maximum speed of 31 knots at 2,300rpm. Closely followed by, the Schaefer Yachts Schaefer 25M with a respectable cruising speed of 26 knots. The Cranchi Settantotto 78 also impresses with a cruising speed of 23 knots. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Azimut Seadeck 9, with the slowest cruising speed of 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 Cranchi Settantotto 78 impresses with its extensive range of 380 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The shallow draft of the Galeon 800 Fly allows it to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Schaefer Yachts Schaefer 25M is especially impressive, with a top speed of 34 knots and cruising speed of 26 knots.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Riva 82' Diva 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.
