Riviera Belize 66 Daybridge Rivals

Which yacht is best for you? As always, it’s all about personal choice. Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the planing hull of the Belize 66 delivers speeds of up to 35 knots.

Accommodation

If your priority is guest accommodation then the Riviera Belize 66 offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 8 guests with its 4 cabin layout option. Some of its rivals, including the Riviera 68 and Palm Beach PB65, share the same 8 guest sleeping capacity, making them excellent choices for those seeking to enjoy their yachting experience with family and friends. The Belize 66 benefits from a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom and hull side windows is a standout. The Hampton Yachts Hampton 650 and Grand Banks GB60, although designed for slightly smaller groups of 6 guests in 3 cabins, still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family getaways.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Riviera Belize 66 delivers a steady 30 knots and can't keep up with its faster competitors such as the Palm Beach 60 with an impressive cruising speed of 35 knots. The Riviera Belize 66 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 Greenline 68, 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 Grand Banks GB60 impresses with its extensive range of 2,000 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Palm Beach 60 and Palm Beach PB65 all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Palm Beach 60 is especially impressive, with a top speed of 45 knots and cruising speed of 35 knots.
