Mochi Craft Dolphin 54 (2008 - 2023) 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 planing hull of the 54 delivers speeds of up to 32 knots.

Accommodation

If your priority is guest accommodation then the Mochi Craft 54 offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 7 guests with its 3 cabin layout option. The 54 benefits from a master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, hull side windows and a skylight is a standout. The Palm Beach PB52 and Palm Beach PB50, although designed for slightly smaller groups of 4 guests in 2 cabins, still offer an exceptional level of comfort for short trips and overnight getaways.

Performance

When it comes to performance, the Mochi Craft 54 with a top speed of 32 knots can't match its competitors and being one of the slowest in the group it clearly prioritises comfort over outright speed. The title for the fastest yacht is the Bertram 50 Sport which has a maximum top speed of 43 knots powered by its twin 1,136hp Caterpillar C18 ACERT E02 HP - U.S. EPA Tier 3 and IMO Tier II engines, this is closely followed by the Palm Beach PB50 Pearl 95 with a maximum speed of 31 knots.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Palm Beach PB52 impresses with its extensive range of 941 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Palm Beach PB50, Palm Beach 50 Express and Palm Beach 50 Open all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The Palm Beach 50 Open focuses on performance and efficiency, with a cruising speed of 35 knots. Meanwhile, the Bertram 50 Sport offers the best raw performance, with a maximum speed of 43 knots.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Mochi Craft Dolphin 54 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.
