Horizon E62 Rivals

Which yacht is best for you? As always, it’s all about personal choice.

Accommodation

If accommodating guests overnight is your main concern, then the Horizon E62 which offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 6 guests with its 3 cabin layout option does not match its rivals. Many of its competitors including the Schaefer Yachts Schaefer 660 and Princess F65 offer slightly more guest accommodation sleeping up to 8 guests in 4 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 E62 features a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, hull side windows and a dressing table. Equivalently, the CL Yachts CLB65 and Cranchi Sessantadue 62 also offer 3 cabins, but with facilities for 6 guests, however they still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family vacations.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Horizon E62 has been designed for those not in a hurry, with the slowest cruising speed of the group at 22 knots and a top speed of 25 knots. The Horizon E62 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 Princess F65 which has an impressive cruising speed of knots powered by its twin 1,200hp MAN V8-1200 engines and can reach a top speed of 33 knots. This is closely followed by the Astondoa 66 with a notable cruising speed of 26 knots and top speed of 31 knots.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Schaefer Yachts Schaefer 660 and CL Yachts CLB65 all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The Astondoa 66 focuses on performance and efficiency, with a cruising speed of 26 knots. Meanwhile, the Princess F65 offers the best raw performance, with a maximum speed of 33 knots.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Horizon E62 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.
