Outer Reef 740 Deluxbridge Motoryacht 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 semi-displacement hull of the 740 Deluxbridge delivers speeds of up to 19 knots.

Accommodation

If accommodating guests overnight is your main concern, then the Outer Reef Yachts 740 Deluxbridge 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 Gulf Craft Nomad 70 SUV offer slightly more guest accommodation sleeping up to 10 guests in 5 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 740 Deluxbridge features a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, hull side windows and a walk-in wardrobe and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. Equivalently, the Nordhavn N76 and Hampton Yachts Endurance 680 Skylounge 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 Outer Reef Yachts 740 Deluxbridge delivers a steady 15 knots and can't keep up with its faster competitors such as the Gulf Craft Nomad 70 SUV with an impressive cruising speed of knots or the Absolute 73 with a respectable cruising speed of 22 knots. The Outer Reef Yachts 740 Deluxbridge emphasizes stability and comfort over outright speed, catering to a different set of priorities. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Outer Reef Yachts 730 Motoryacht, 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 Outer Reef Yachts 700 / 720 Motoryacht impresses with its extensive range of 3,541 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Gulf Craft Nomad 70 SUV, Outer Reef Yachts 700 / 720 Motoryacht, Hampton Yachts Endurance 680 Skylounge and Outer Reef Yachts 720 Deluxbridge all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The Absolute 73 focuses on performance and efficiency, with a cruising speed of 22 knots. Meanwhile, the Gulf Craft Nomad 70 SUV offers the best raw performance, with a maximum speed of 25 knots.

Summary
