Prestige 520:
Tender Garage or Crew Cabin?
The Prestige 520 is a three-stateroom motoryacht with two heads. She can be fitted with a small crew cabin aft that is ideal for an older kid or a nanny, or a tender garage; whichever suits the owner. She has a lot of amenities and functionality, and like all Prestige boats, she is competitively priced.

A Sportboat Built Like a Cruiser
The Cruisers Sport Series 298 Bow Rider is built in the same plant by the same people who build the 60 Cantius. The result? A level of fit and finish not seen in most small boats, and one that shows very well in her new available color scheme.

This comparison includes motoryachts from 51' to 60' (15.5 m to 18.3 m). Each one is arranged for cruising with family and friends. The standard layouts all comprise three staterooms, two doubles (master and VIP), and a twin-berth guest cabin. Boats in this size range have the volume belowdecks for ample accommodations. These six boats differ in design, styling, power, and myriad details, so take some time to study them. There's more information on each one in our Captain's Reports. As always, we encourage you to contact us here at BoatTEST.com if you have any questions, and we'll do our best to answer them.

Ocean Alexander 112 Tri-Level Motor Yacht:
Ocean-Ranging Megayacht w/5 Staterooms
The Ocean Alexander 112 Tri-Level Motor Yacht can sleep up to 10 guests in opulent comfort, thanks in part to the volume granted by her 24’6” (7.47 m) beam and main-deck master suite. The enclosed flying bridge allows for an upper-deck helm station, and the skydeck above that is given over to a hot tub and sun lounges. She’s powered by twin 2,600-hp MTU 16V 2000 M94s, giving her a range of 2,480 NM at 10.5 knots, while at 2000 rpm and 18.7 knots, her range is about 575 NM.
