Silent Yachts Silent 80 Flybridge Rivals
Which yacht is best for you? As always, it’s all about personal choice.
Accommodation
If accommodating guests overnight is your main concern, then the Silent Yachts 80 Fly which offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 8 guests with its 4 cabin layout option does not match its rivals. Many of its competitors including the Fountaine Pajot P80 offer slightly more guest accommodation sleeping up to 14 guests in 7 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 80 Fly features a 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 Silent Yachts 80 Open and VisionF 80 NG also offer 4 cabins, but with facilities for 8 guests, however they still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family vacations.
Unique Characteristics
Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Lagoon Seventy 8 impresses with its extensive range of 4,000 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The VisionF 80 NG, Silent Yachts 80 Open, Sunreef Yachts 80 Sunreef, Silent Yachts 80 Closed and Lagoon Seventy 8 all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Sunreef Yachts 80 Sunreef is especially impressive, with a top speed of 21 knots and cruising speed of 17 knots.
Summary
Despite stiff competition, the Silent Yachts Silent 80 Flybridge 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.
