Viking 62C (2013 - 2023) Rivals

Accommodation

If accommodating guests overnight is your main concern, then the Viking Yachts 62C 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 Riviera Belize 66 and Hatteras GT65 Carolina 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 62C features a master cabin with an en-suite bathroom. Equivalently, the Bertram 61 Convertible also offer 3 cabins, but with facilities for 6 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 Hatteras GT65 Carolina impresses with its extensive range of 1,313 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Bertram 61 Convertible and Hatteras GT65 Carolina all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Hatteras GT65 Carolina is especially impressive, with a top speed of 41 knots and cruising speed of 36 knots.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Viking 62C 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.
