Which yacht is best for you? As always, it’s all about personal choice. Some people choose a yacht on its characteristics (incidentally the 96' Argo Super has won 1 award, most recently for "Best Layout (24-30m)").

Accommodation

If your priority is guest accommodation then the Riva 96' Argo Super offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 10 guests with its 5 cabin layout option. Most of its rivals, including the Azimut Grande 30M and Princess X95 Vista, share the same 10 guest sleeping capacity, making them excellent choices for those seeking to enjoy their yachting experience with family and friends. The 96' Argo Super benefits from a full-beam master cabin is a standout. The Riva 90' Argo, although designed for slightly smaller groups of 8 guests in 4 cabins, still offers an exceptional level of comfort for family getaways.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Riva 96' Argo Super has been designed for those not in a hurry, with the slowest cruising speed of the group at 22 knots and a top speed of 26 knots. The Riva 96' Argo Super emphasizes stability and comfort over outright speed and its target audience will be those who enjoy the journey over the destination.

The Azimut Grande 30M, Sunseeker Manhattan 94 and Princess X95 Vista all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels.
