Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Prestige Prestige 720 2013 vs Prestige Yachts 450 Fly Flybridge 2017 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Prestige Prestige 720 2013 vs Prestige Yachts 450 Fly Flybridge 2017 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 1 200 hp, the Prestige Prestige 720 2013 has a 765-hp advantage over the Prestige Yachts 450 Fly Flybridge 2017's 435-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 Prestige 720 2013 carries 1 162 gallons versus 159 gallons in the Prestige Yachts 450 Fly Flybridge 2017. 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 Prestige 720 2013 is rated for 22 passengers, while the Prestige Yachts 450 Fly Flybridge 2017 caps at 13. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Prestige Prestige 720 2013 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Prestige Prestige 720 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 22 passengers and at 74,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Prestige Yachts 450 Fly Flybridge 2017 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 13 that costs less to run day-to-day.
