Westport 112 (Gen 3, 2017 - 2022) 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 semi-displacement hull of the 112 delivers speeds of up to 26 knots. Some may even choose their yacht based upon features such as: top-quality composite construction, semi-custom production, relatively low maintenance and notably fast cruising speed.

Accommodation

If accommodating guests overnight is your main concern, then the Westport Yachts W112 which offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 8 guests with its 4 cabin layout option does not match its rivals. Many of its competitors including the Gulf Craft Majesty 111 and Gulf Craft 110 offer slightly more guest accommodation sleeping up to 12 guests in 6 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 W112 features a full-beam master cabin with a his and hers en-suite bathroom, hull side windows and full-standing headroom and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. Equivalently, the Horizon P110 and Maiora 30 Walkaround also offer 4 cabins, but with facilities for 8 guests, however they still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family vacations.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Westport Yachts W112 delivers a steady 22 knots and can't keep up with its faster competitors such as the Maiora 35 Exuma with an impressive cruising speed of 28 knots or the Sanlorenzo SL106 with a respectable cruising speed of 25 knots. The Westport Yachts W112 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 Custom Line 33, with the slowest cruising speed of 13 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 Moonen Martinique 112 impresses with its extensive range of 3,900 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Maiora 35 Exuma, Maiora 30 Walkaround, Johnson Yachts 110 and Gulf Craft 110 all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Maiora 35 Exuma is especially impressive, with a top speed of 33 knots and cruising speed of 28 knots. The Moonen Martinique 112 has an impressive gross tonnage of 334GT, the largest of the competitors here.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Westport 112 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.
