Extra X96 Triplex (2021 - 2024) 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 X96 Triplex delivers speeds of up to 18 knots.

Accommodation

If hosting guests overnight is your top priority, then the Extra Yachts X96 Triplex offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 10 guests with its 5 cabin layout option. Nonetheless, competitors like the Sunseeker 100 have a slight edge in guest accommodation, with the capacity to sleep up to 13 guests in 6 cabins. This makes them more suitable for those looking to maximize the number of family and friends accommodated onboard. The X96 Triplex benefits from a master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, a dressing room and full-standing headroom is a standout and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. The Sanlorenzo SL96A and Maiora 30 Walkaround are tailored for somewhat smaller groups of 8 guests yet can still deliver an outstanding level of comfort for family vacations.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Extra Yachts X96 Triplex has been designed for those not in a hurry, with the slowest cruising speed of the group at 15 knots and a top speed of 18 knots. The Extra Yachts X96 Triplex 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 Extra Yachts X99 Fast which has an impressive cruising speed of 28 knots powered by its twin 2,600hp MTU 16V 2000 M96L engines and can reach a top speed of 34 knots. This is closely followed by the Sunseeker 100 with a notable cruising speed of 25 knots and top speed of 28 knots.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Arcadia A96 impresses with its extensive range of 2,000 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Extra Yachts X99 Fast, Gulf Craft Nomad 101 and Maiora 30 Walkaround all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Extra Yachts X99 Fast is especially impressive, with a top speed of 34 knots and cruising speed of 28 knots. The Extra Yachts X99 Fast has an impressive gross tonnage of 238GT, the largest of the competitors here.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Extra X96 Triplex 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.
