Sunseeker 65 Sport Yacht 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 65 has won 2 awards, most recently for "Sportscruisers (over 45ft)"). Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the planing hull of the 65 delivers speeds of up to 35 knots. Some may even choose their yacht based upon features such as: spectacular sports bridge style inside and out, 35-knot ips performance, race-car-meets-gamer upper helm, three of four cabins and glass salon with galley aft.

Accommodation

If accommodating guests overnight is your main concern, then the Sunseeker 65 which offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 7 guests with its 3 cabin layout option does not match its rivals. Many of its competitors including the Princess S65 and Cranchi Sessantasette 67 Corsa offer slightly more guest accommodation sleeping up to 8 guests in 4 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 65 features a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, hull side windows and a sofa and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. Equivalently, the Princess S60 and Prestige 630S 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 Sunseeker 65 delivers a steady 30 knots and can't keep up with its faster competitors such as the Princess S62 with an impressive cruising speed of 36 knots or the Princess S66 with a respectable cruising speed of 36 knots. The Sunseeker 65 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 Prestige 630S, with the slowest cruising speed of 19 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 Azimut S7 impresses with its extensive range of 805 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The shallow draft of the Galeon 650 allows it to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Princess S62 is especially impressive, with a top speed of 38 knots and cruising speed of 36 knots.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Sunseeker 65 Sport Yacht 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.
