Heesen 5700 Aluminium 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 fast displacement hull of the 5700 delivers speeds of up to 22 knots.

Accommodation

If your priority is guest accommodation then the Heesen 5700 offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 12 guests with its 6 cabin layout option. The 5700 benefits from a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, a study and a dressing table is a standout and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. The Tankoa Yachts T560 Apache and Benetti B.Yond 57M, although designed for slightly smaller groups of 10 guests in 6 cabins, still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family or group getaways.

Performance

In terms of cruising performance, the Heesen 5700 leads the way with an impressive cruising speed of 18 knots thanks to its twin 3,433hp MTU 16V 4000 M65L engines and maximum speed of 22 knots at 1,800rpm. Closely followed by, the Benetti B.Yond 57M with a respectable cruising speed of 10 knots. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Benetti B.Yond 57M, with the slowest cruising speed of 10 knots, emphasizes stability and comfort over outright speed and enjoying the journey over the destination.

Unique Characteristics
