Pearl 95 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 95 has won 2 awards, most recently for "Power Yacht Interior Design"). Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the planing hull of the 95 delivers speeds of up to 30 knots. Some may even choose their yacht based upon features such as: pocket superyacht, 30-knot performance, 380-mile cruising range, huge owner’s cabin with forward-facing windows, private sun lounge recessed into the lower foredeck, fold-down buttresses in the aft quarters and accommodation for up to 10 guests and five crew.

Accommodation

If hosting guests overnight is your top priority, then the Pearl Yachts 95 offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 10 guests with its 5 cabin layout option. Nonetheless, competitors like the Sunseeker 100 have a slight edge in guest accommodation, with the capacity to sleep up to 13 guests in 6 cabins. This makes them more suitable for those looking to maximize the number of family and friends accommodated onboard. The 95 benefits from a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, a study and a dressing table is a standout and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. The Riva 90' Argo and Sanlorenzo SL96A are tailored for somewhat smaller groups of 8 guests yet can still deliver an outstanding level of comfort for family vacations.

Performance

In terms of cruising performance, the Pearl Yachts 95 leads the way with an impressive cruising speed of 26 knots thanks to its twin 1,900hp Caterpillar C32 ACERT E03 - U.S. EPA Tier 3 and IMO Tier II/III engines and maximum speed of 30 knots at 2,300rpm. Closely followed by, the Riva 90' Argo with a respectable cruising speed of 26 knots. The Ferretti Yachts 920 also impresses with a cruising speed of 26 knots. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Sanlorenzo SD96, with the slowest cruising speed of 15 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 Monte Carlo Yachts 96 impresses with its extensive range of 2,787 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The shallow draft of the Sunseeker 90 Ocean Enclosed allows it to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Riva 90' Argo is especially impressive, with a top speed of 30 knots and cruising speed of 26 knots. The Sunseeker 100 has an impressive gross tonnage of 155GT, the largest of the competitors here.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Pearl 95 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.
