Astondoa 80 Flybridge (2017 - 2019) Rivals

Which yacht is best for you? As always, it’s all about personal choice. Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the planing hull of the 80 delivers speeds of up to 33 knots.

Accommodation

If your priority is guest accommodation then the Astondoa 80 offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 8 guests with its 4 cabin layout option. The 80 benefits from a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, hull side windows and a walk-in wardrobe is a standout and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. The Azimut 80 and Sanlorenzo SL78, although designed for slightly smaller groups of 8 guests in 4 cabins, still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family getaways.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Astondoa 80 has been designed for those not in a hurry, with the slowest cruising speed of the group at 26 knots and a top speed of 33 knots. The Astondoa 80 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 Princess Y78 which has an impressive cruising speed of 34 knots powered by its twin 1,800hp MAN V12-1800 engines and can reach a top speed of 36 knots. This is closely followed by the Ferretti Yachts 780 with a notable cruising speed of 27 knots and top speed of 31 knots.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Sanlorenzo SL78 impresses with its extensive range of 853 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The shallow draft of the Princess Y78 allows it to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Princess Y78 is especially impressive, with a top speed of 36 knots and cruising speed of 34 knots.
