See full version: The top 5 long-range luxury motoryachts reviewed
Incredibly quiet, beautifully
smooth, seaworthy and stable, the Riviera 68 Sports Motor Yacht delivers
the ultimate luxury boating experience, powerful and fast ride and above all a sophisticated
drive. The top-end of town has voted and the Gold Coast boatbuilder is
now rolling out a fleet of 68 and 72 sister ships to buyers all around
the world. The pinnacle of Australian boatbuilding arrived with a big splash this year. here
Compared with the E73 it supplants, the new 75 footer has a much-improved layout with open-plan living areas, an extended cockpit, aft galley and enclosed flying bridge for all weather cruising. But with the spa, box jellyfish, crocs and sharks remain at arm's length no matter where and when you want to dive in. Leave Cairns, round Cape York and arrive at The Kimberley.
The
standard 1550hp V12 MAN engines deliver power in the most sophisticated way.
Coupled to the Seatorque shaft system in V-drive configuration, the
engines' vibration levels are the lowest we’ve experienced on a boat
this fast. The smooth delivery of power and torque is on tap all the
way from displacement speeds, where your range is 2000nm-plus, right up
to a flying 31-32 knots. Acceleration is mighty, though you don’t necessarily
feel it in the enclosed flying bridge, where sound levels are just
mid-60dba when cruising offshore. more
If not shelling out a few million or five for one, you can at least share in the spoils vicariously with these luxury-boat reviews brought to you from the pneumatic helm chair, full-beam stateroom, marble en suite and, yes, spa bar. here
Bareboat charter companies, such as The Moorings and MarineMax Vacations, use powercats for their fleets, where customers charter and pilot the boats themselves. (Allowing charter customers to pilot vessels unaided says a lot about how well powercats perform.) And once you take a tour of the luxury powercats, you will be amazed at the size; the sprawling interiors seem more like apartments than boats. here
The multi-hull catamaran design has centuries-old roots in seafaring cultures around the world— think outrigger canoes in the South Pacific. As engine technology evolved, applying power to sailing catamarans was a natural progression. Today, powercats range from 28-foot fishing boats to 70-foot luxury yachts that come equipped with sought-after mono-hull features like generous interior appointments, advanced electronics, and equipment that ensures ease of use. These days, the top catamarans for cruising are wide and varied.
Here’s a look at some of the leading powercats and the top catamarans for cruising from top builders worldwide. Anglers will recognize some that are ideal for fishing, while cruisers will spot those designed for relaxation and luxury. Whatever your reason for looking at powercats, you’ll agree that two hulls just might be better than one. more
