Tankoa S531 (2014 - 2023) 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 displacement hull of the S531 delivers speeds of up to 16 knots.

Accommodation

If your priority is guest accommodation then the Tankoa Yachts S531 offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 13 guests with its 6 cabin layout option. Most of its rivals, including the Amels Amels 180 and Sanlorenzo 52Steel, share the same 13 guest sleeping capacity, making them excellent choices for those seeking to enjoy their yachting experience with family and friends. The S531 benefits from a master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, a dressing room and a study is a standout and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. The Riva 50Metri and Heesen 50m, although designed for slightly smaller groups of 10 guests in 5 cabins, still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family or group getaways.

Performance
