Prestige 520 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 520 delivers speeds of up to 26 knots.

Accommodation

If your priority is guest accommodation then the Prestige 520 offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 6 guests with its 3 cabin layout option. The 520 benefits from a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, a private stairwell and hull side windows is a standout. The Sunseeker 52 and Azimut Fly 50, although designed for slightly smaller groups of 6 guests in 3 cabins, still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family getaways.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Prestige 520 has been designed for those not in a hurry, with the slowest cruising speed of the group at 20 knots and a top speed of 26 knots. The Prestige 520 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 F50 which has an impressive cruising speed of 30 knots powered by its twin 600hp Volvo Penta D8-IPS800 engines and can reach a top speed of 36 knots.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Maritimo M51 impresses with its extensive range of 722 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Gulf Craft 48 and Rodman Muse 54 all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Princess F50 is especially impressive, with a top speed of 36 knots and cruising speed of 30 knots.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Prestige 520 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.
