Owner Experience Review
Owners lean on the 46byPERSHINGas a versatile sport yacht: a genuine three-cabin layout makes family cruising workable, while its presence on Mediterranean day-charter listings shows it adapts well to crewed charter use. On the water it is repeatedly described as fast and nimble, with typical cruising reported around 32 knots and top speeds in the high-30s to low-40s. Most boats are shaft-driven rather than on surface drives. Several owners note that in head seas the boat can be on the wet side, a trade-off to keep in mind on longer coastal hops.
Onboard, the aft cabin is what turns it into a true three-cabin platform, with a compact but usable salon/galley suited to day-cruising more than full-beam luxury living. Interior quality is often praised, though some owners point to fit-and-finish inconsistencies. Maintenance commentary centers on small-system failures (automatic bilge and shower sump switches), attention to shaft seals and corrosion on running gear, and an occasional MAN engine electronics niggle around the 500-hour mark. A thorough survey and engine inspection are commonly recommended, and a few owners report higher upkeep on running gear and electrics compared with peers.
Pros and Cons
- Genuine three-cabin layout suits families and flexible guest arrangements.
- Fast, responsive sport yacht with typical 32-knot cruise and 37–40+ knot top speeds.
- Compact but usable salon/galley supports day-cruising and charter routines.
- Can deliver a wetter ride in head seas, per owner reports.
- Some owners cite small-system failures, notably automatic bilge and shower sump switches.
- Running gear/electrics may need above-average attention, including shaft seal/corrosion checks and MAN electronics around ~500 hours.
