Which yacht is best for you? As always, it’s all about personal choice. Some people choose a yacht on its characteristics (incidentally the AB 110 has won a staggering 3 awards, most recently for "Semi-Displacement or Planing Motor Yachts - 33m to 39.9m"). Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the planing hull of the AB 110 delivers speeds of up to 43 knots.
If accommodating guests overnight is your main concern, then the AB Yachts AB 110 which offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 10 guests with its 4 cabin layout option does not match its rivals. Many of its competitors including the Mangusta GranSport 34 offer slightly more guest accommodation sleeping up to 12 guests in 5 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 AB 110 features a master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, hull side windows and a walk-in wardrobe. Equivalently, the Extra Yachts X110 Fast also offer 4 cabins, but with facilities for 8 guests, however they still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family vacations.
In terms of cruising performance, the AB Yachts AB 110 leads the way with an impressive cruising speed of 38 knots thanks to its 3 x 2,000hp MAN V12-2000 engines and maximum speed of 43 knots at 2,300rpm. Closely followed by, the Extra Yachts X110 Fast with a respectable cruising speed of 28 knots. The Mangusta GranSport 34 also impresses with a cruising speed of 20 knots. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Mangusta GranSport 34, with the slowest cruising speed of 20 knots, emphasizes stability and comfort over outright speed and enjoying the journey over the destination.
Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The shallow draft of the Extra Yachts X110 Fast allows it to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Extra Yachts X110 Fast is especially impressive, with a top speed of 33 knots and cruising speed of 28 knots.
Despite stiff competition, the AB 110 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.
