Pershing 140 Rivals

Some people choose a yacht on its characteristics (incidentally the 140 has won 1 award, most recently for "Best Naval Architecture: Semi-Displacement or Planing Motor Yachts"). Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the planing hull of the 140 delivers speeds of up to 38 knots.

Most of its rivals, including the Mangusta 45 and AB Yachts AB 130, share the same 10 guest sleeping capacity, making them excellent choices for those seeking to enjoy their yachting experience with family and friends.
