- Bluewater capability:
- With a displacement of 52910.0 lb and a capsize ratio of 1.89, the Advanced 66 exhibits strong offshore stability and seakeeping characteristics suitable for bluewater passages.
- Comparables:
- Comparable boats include other Reichel/Pugh designs from the same era, such as the Nauticat 41 or larger custom builds, as well as other Italian-built performance cruisers like the Benetti or Pershing models that prioritize speed and modern aesthetics.
