Which yacht is best for you? As always, it’s all about personal choice. Some people choose a yacht on its characteristics (incidentally the 460 has won a staggering 3 awards, most recently for "Best Explorer Yacht"). Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the displacement hull of the 460 delivers speeds of up to 16 knots. Some may even choose their yacht based upon features such as: exploration style, s.u.v yacht, long range, five en suite cabins, main deck master suite, pool and crew quarters.
If hosting guests overnight is your top priority, then the Sanlorenzo 460 offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 12 guests with its 6 cabin layout option. Nonetheless, competitors like the Gulf Craft 140 have a slight edge in guest accommodation, with the capacity to sleep up to 14 guests in 7 cabins. This makes them more suitable for those looking to maximize the number of family and friends accommodated onboard. The 460 benefits from a full-beam master cabin with a his and hers en-suite bathroom, a dressing room and full-standing headroom is a standout and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. The Sanlorenzo 40 and Mangusta 43 are tailored for somewhat smaller groups of 10 guests yet can still deliver an outstanding level of comfort for family or group vacations.
When it comes to cruising speed, the Sanlorenzo 460 has been designed for those not in a hurry, with the slowest cruising speed of the group at 14 knots and a top speed of 16 knots. The Sanlorenzo 460 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 Sanlorenzo 40 which has an impressive cruising speed of 24 knots powered by its twin 2,600hp MTU 16V 2000 M94 engines and can reach a top speed of 27 knots. This is closely followed by the Gulf Craft 140 with a notable cruising speed of 16 knots and top speed of 20 knots.
Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Mangusta 43 impresses with its extensive range of 4,500 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Gulf Craft 140, Benetti Diamond 44M and Astondoa 151 all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Sanlorenzo 40 is especially impressive, with a top speed of 27 knots and cruising speed of 24 knots. The Mangusta 46 has an impressive gross tonnage of 499GT, the largest of the competitors here.
Despite stiff competition, the Sanlorenzo 460Exp 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.
