Windy 40 Maestro (2010 - 2021) 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 planing hull of the W40 delivers speeds of up to 42 knots.

Accommodation

The Windy Boats W40 offers a versatile accommodation layout that caters to both day boating enthusiasts and those who may occasionally seek overnight or weekend getaways. Additionally, its maximum guest capacity of six ensures there's ample space for a small group of friends or family, making it suitable for day outings with the possibility of occasional overnight or weekend use. Conversely, some of its rivals like the Absolute 40 STL, Bluegame BG42 and Sessa Marine C35 with their limited cabin configurations for four guests, may be better suited for day boating enthusiasts who prioritize open-water adventures and occasional overnight escapes.

Performance

In terms of cruising performance, the Windy Boats W40 leads the way with an impressive cruising speed of 34 knots thanks to its twin 370hp Volvo Penta D6-370/DP engines and maximum speed of 42 knots at 3,500rpm. Closely followed by, the Princess V40 with a respectable cruising speed of 32 knots. The Absolute 40 STL also impresses with a cruising speed of 28 knots. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Sessa Marine C35, with the slowest cruising speed of 27 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 Sessa Marine C35 impresses with its extensive range of 694 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Sessa Marine C35, Sessa Marine C35 and Princess V40 all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Princess V40 is especially impressive, with a top speed of 39 knots and cruising speed of 32 knots.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Windy 40 Maestro 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.
