Beneteau Grand Trawler 62 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 62 delivers speeds of up to 20 knots. Some may even choose their yacht based upon features such as: three or four cabin layout with roomy owner’s cabin, expansive flybridge, plenty of social spaces and “terrace on the sea” style aft cockpit.

Accommodation

If your priority is guest accommodation then the Beneteau Yachts 62 offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 8 guests with its 4 cabin layout option. Some of its rivals, including the Apreamare 66, share the same 8 guest sleeping capacity, making them excellent choices for those seeking to enjoy their yachting experience with family and friends. The 62 benefits from a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, hull side windows and a dressing table is a standout. The Outer Reef Yachts 620 Trident Evo and Hampton Yachts Hampton 590, although designed for slightly smaller groups of 6 guests in 3 cabins, still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family getaways.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Beneteau Yachts 62 has been designed for those not in a hurry, with the slowest cruising speed of the group at 16 knots and a top speed of 20 knots. The Beneteau Yachts 62 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 Apreamare 56 which has an impressive cruising speed of 25 knots powered by its twin 725hp Volvo Penta D11-IPS950 engines and can reach a top speed of 30 knots.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Outer Reef Yachts 620 Trident Evo impresses with its extensive range of 1,376 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Greenline 58 Fly, Galeon 560 Fly, Outer Reef Yachts 620 Trident Evo and Pardo Yachts E60 all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The Apreamare 66 focuses on performance and efficiency, with a cruising speed of 25 knots. Meanwhile, the Apreamare 56 offers the best raw performance, with a maximum speed of 30 knots.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Beneteau Grand Trawler 62 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.
