Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Prestige Prestige 400 2013 vs Prestige Yachts 500 S 2013 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Prestige Prestige 400 2013 vs Prestige Yachts 500 S 2013 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 320 hp, the Prestige Yachts 500 S 2013 has a 318-hp advantage over the Prestige Prestige 400 2013's 2-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Prestige Yachts 500 S 2013 carries 343 gallons versus 212 gallons in the Prestige Prestige 400 2013. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Prestige Yachts 500 S 2013 is rated for 15 passengers, while the Prestige Prestige 400 2013 caps at 12. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Prestige Yachts 500 S 2013 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Prestige Yachts 500 S 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 15 passengers and at 50,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Prestige Prestige 400 2013 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 12 that costs less to run day-to-day.
