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 S621 delivers speeds of up to 16 knots.
If accommodating guests overnight is your main concern, then the Tankoa Yachts S621 which offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 12 guests with its 6 cabin layout option does not match its rivals. Many of its competitors including the Benetti B.Now 67M Oasis and Amels Amels 220 offer slightly more guest accommodation sleeping up to 14 guests in 7 cabins, making them better choices for those seeking to maximise the number of family and friends they can sleep onboard. However, for maximum comfort for the owner, the S621 features a master cabin with a his and hers en-suite bathroom, a his and hers dressing room and a study and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. Equivalently, the Sanlorenzo 64Steel and Sanlorenzo 62Steel also offer 6 cabins, but with facilities for 12 guests, however they still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family or group vacations.
When it comes to cruising speed, the Tankoa Yachts S621 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 Tankoa Yachts S621 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 Heesen 6500 which has an impressive cruising speed of 21 knots powered by its twin 4,615hp MTU 16V 4000 M93L engines and can reach a top speed of 24 knots.
Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Sanlorenzo 64Steel impresses with its extensive range of 6,000 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Benetti B.Now 67M Oasis, Benetti 62M, Benetti 63M and Heesen 6500 all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Heesen 6500 is especially impressive, with a top speed of 24 knots and cruising speed of 21 knots. The Damen Yachting 65 has an impressive gross tonnage of 2,000GT, the largest of the competitors here.
Despite stiff competition, the Tankoa S621 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.
