Heesen 7000 Aluminium (2013 - 2021) Rivals

Which yacht is best for you? As always, it’s all about personal choice. Some people choose a yacht on its characteristics (incidentally the 7000 has won a staggering 5 awards, most recently for "Semi-Displacement or Planing Motor Yachts - 50m and above"). Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the fast displacement hull of the 7000 delivers speeds of up to 30 knots.

Accommodation

If accommodating guests overnight is your main concern, then the Heesen 7000 which offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 12 guests with its 6 cabin layout option does not match its rivals. Many of its competitors including the Tankoa Yachts T700 Milano and Benetti B.Now 67M Oasis offer slightly more guest accommodation sleeping up to 14 guests in 7 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 7000 features a full-beam master cabin with a his and hers en-suite bathroom, a dressing room and a study and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. Equivalently, the Mangusta 215 and Amels Amels 242 also offer 6 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 Heesen 7000 holds its own at a respectable 25 knots and a maximum speed of 30 knots. However, the Mangusta 215 surpasses this slightly with an impressive cruising speed of 26 knots signalling a lean towards more dynamic performance capabilities. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Amels Amels 242, with the slowest cruising speed of 12 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 Tankoa Yachts S701 impresses with its extensive range of 6,000 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Mangusta 215 and Benetti B.Now 67M Oasis all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Mangusta 215 is especially impressive, with a top speed of 30 knots and cruising speed of 26 knots. The Amels Amels 242 has an impressive gross tonnage of 1,790GT, the largest of the competitors here.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Heesen 7000 Aluminium 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.
