Numarine 32 XP 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 32 XP has won 2 awards, most recently for "Best Explorer Yacht"). Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the displacement hull of the 32 XP delivers speeds of up to 14 knots.

Accommodation

If your priority is guest accommodation then the Numarine 32 XP offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 12 guests with its 6 cabin layout option. Most of its rivals, including the Cantiere delle Marche Darwin 102 and Horizon FD102 Skyline, share the same 12 guest sleeping capacity, making them excellent choices for those seeking to enjoy their yachting experience with family and friends. The 32 XP benefits from a master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, full-standing headroom and a walk-in wardrobe is a standout and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. The Gulf Craft 95 SUV, although designed for slightly smaller groups of 8 guests in 4 cabins, still offers an exceptional level of comfort for family getaways.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Numarine 32 XP has been designed for those not in a hurry, with the slowest cruising speed of the group at 12 knots and a top speed of 14 knots. The Numarine 32 XP 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 Gulf Craft 95 SUV which has an impressive cruising speed of 17 knots powered by its twin 1,900hp MAN V12-1900 engines and can reach a top speed of 25 knots. This is closely followed by the Sanlorenzo SX112 with a notable cruising speed of 20 knots and top speed of 23 knots.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Cantiere delle Marche Deep Blue 115 impresses with its extensive range of 5,500 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Horizon FD102 Skyline, Sanlorenzo SX112, Horizon FD100 Skyline and Gulf Craft 95 SUV all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The Sanlorenzo SX112 focuses on performance and efficiency, with a cruising speed of 20 knots. Meanwhile, the Gulf Craft 95 SUV offers the best raw performance, with a maximum speed of 25 knots. The Gulf Craft 95 SUV has an impressive gross tonnage of 200GT, the largest of the competitors here.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Numarine 32 XP 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.
