Boats under 70ft, 4 cabins and sub $600K. What are my options?

Think about a Vizianello Vz18. They have an excellent use uf interiour space.

Ferretti 68. Azimut 68 Plus, Princess 20M, and or Sunseeker 74 Manhattan, and the Astondoa 72 GLX

Semi customs would be Maiora 20, Sanlorenzo 72, and the Posillipo Technema 70.

The Italian semi-custom would be heavier and therefore drink more. Expect 15 liters plus per nm at fast cruise (more like 17).
While the above are all below 15. I know the Azimut 68 Plus is at around 13 litres per nm at fast cruise.

Hi Liam,
good selection. However, I would recommend not to make fuel consumption the most important aspect.
For example the SL72 will give a much better ride especially at lower speeds while the performance in terms of top speed is lower. But then a true ship needs to have the weight of a ship to sit in the water like one.
It all boils down to the question of what profile of use the OP has in mind. One strength allways has to be bought with a weakness on other aspects and it´s allways a matter of the right balance for the profile of use.
The Astondoa and The SanLorenzo are pretty much the antipodes in this comparison within same high build- and interiour quality.

I think Ferretti 68 is much nicer to the Princess 20M in every regards, and feels much more a yacht. (high bulwurks, deeper aft deck, and also space is engine room is much better)
Also she is more a yacht in every regards.
The only caveat for you Amuricans is the separate galley, which I know most of you do not like.

It will take about ten years for Princess to have a model with that standard, and that is when they launch the 67 or 21M in 2006.

If there is no sail, this is a very important question. Because fuel consumption determines cruise range.

Hello, everyone. This is my first post.

62' Neptunus is a solid choice.

If you are a bit flexible on the 4th cabin... Queenship 64 or 68 with Cats or MAN's. 3 staterooms plus a nice crew area. Above average quality, very nice layout.

Pacific Mariner 65's are getting to that price range. The 4th cabin is not ideal, mostly intended for crew or storage - aft of the engine room, access is a hatch under the aft deck settee.

If the 4th cabin isn't good enough for guests, why would it be good enough for crew???

No argument from me. I bet the grandkids would love it though.

Well, crew for most people don't have as nice of a cabin as the owners and their guests. It's a small cabin, which, as mentioned, is just aft of the engine room. It has a bed, sink, toilet, but no shower. I likely wouldn't have a crew member living there, but then we don't have a crew member on our PM65. I know some owners that do travel with a crew, but they gave them the third (twin) bedroom.

65'/66' Sunseeker has 4 nice Cabins Plus crew cabin.
