Sport Yachts Review

Sport yachts can be looked upon as being the Ferraris or Lamborghinis of the sea. Starting at about 35 ft and ranging anywhere up to 51 ft, these luxurious speedsters are the envy of any boat enthusiast. Brands such as Viking, Maxum, Sea Ray and Tiara are the ultimate of luxury. Standard features are typically a pair of 420 hp diesel engines giving a cruise speed of 25 knots and a maximum speed in excess of 30 knots, Long range fuel tanks, Hi-fi and satellite with a flat-screen TV, a separate shower and head, generator, VHF radio and a swimming platform with underwater lights at the stern. Two staterooms each sleep 2 and there is a spacious salon and galley. With the degree of luxury that you get in sports yachts you can expect to pay at least seven figures for a new boat. Most major manufacturers produce a range of boats covering the broad spectrum of boat lengths. If you’re ordering a new boat you normally have the opportunity of being able to have it customized according to your specifications, and there is usually a broad selection of options to choose from. Control stations on sports yachts feature power steering, high gloss instrument panel, display units, diagnostics as well as the usual controls and instruments.
