Tankoa S701 (2014 - 2023) 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 S701 has won a staggering 3 awards, most recently for "The Game Changer Award"). Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the displacement hull of the S701 delivers speeds of up to 17 knots.

Accommodation

If accommodating guests overnight is your main concern, then the Tankoa Yachts S701 which offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 12 guests with its 6 cabin layout option does not match its rivals. Many of its competitors including the Benetti 68M offer slightly more guest accommodation sleeping up to 16 guests in 8 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 S701 features a master cabin with a his and hers en-suite bathroom, a dressing room and a study. Equivalently, the Amels Amels 242 and Heesen 7000 also offer 6 cabins, but with facilities for 12 guests, however they still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family or group vacations.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Tankoa Yachts S701 has been designed for those not in a hurry, with the slowest cruising speed of the group at 15 knots and a top speed of 17 knots. The Tankoa Yachts S701 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 Heesen 7000 which has an impressive cruising speed of 25 knots powered by its twin 5,766hp MTU 20V 4000 M93L engines and can reach a top speed of 30 knots.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Tankoa Yachts S702 Next 70 impresses with its extensive range of 6,000 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Benetti B.Now 67M Oasis and Benetti B.Now 67M all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Heesen 7000 is especially impressive, with a top speed of 30 knots and cruising speed of 25 knots. The Benetti 75M has an impressive gross tonnage of 1,830GT, the largest of the competitors here.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Tankoa S701 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.
