Westport 125 (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 semi-displacement hull of the 125 delivers speeds of up to 25 knots. Some may even choose their yacht based upon features such as: streamlined silhouette, raised pilothouse, separate accommodation for up to six crew and relatively shallow draught.

Accommodation

If accommodating guests overnight is your main concern, then the Westport Yachts 125 which offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 10 guests with its 5 cabin layout option does not match its rivals. Many of its competitors including the Horizon FD130 Tri-Deck and Azimut Grande Trideck 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 125 features a master cabin with a his and hers en-suite bathroom, full-standing headroom and a dressing table. Equivalently, the Westport Yachts W130 and Sanlorenzo SD126 also offer 5 cabins, but with facilities for 12 guests, however they still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family or group vacations.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Westport Yachts 125 delivers a steady 20 knots and can't keep up with its faster competitors such as the Sanlorenzo SL118 with an impressive cruising speed of 26 knots or the Sanlorenzo SL120A with a respectable cruising speed of 23 knots. The Westport Yachts 125 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 Astondoa 120 Steel Explorer, with the slowest cruising speed of 10 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 122 Martinique impresses with its extensive range of 4,000 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Gulf Craft 122, Azimut Grande Trideck, Westport Yachts W130, Benetti Motopanfilo 37M, Horizon RP120, Sanlorenzo SL120A, Sanlorenzo SL118, Benetti Fast 125 and Gulf Craft 120 all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Sanlorenzo SL118 is especially impressive, with a top speed of 30 knots and cruising speed of 26 knots. The Moonen 122 Martinique has an impressive gross tonnage of 345GT, the largest of the competitors here.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Westport 125 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.
