Poros created a slower environment for comparing volume
EMMYS is designed around in-water inspection, allowing visitors to spend more time understanding circulation, accommodation and deck use than is often possible at larger international shows. Fountaine Pajot says 21 yachts were displayed across its wider presence at the event.
For LYG buyers, the value lies in being able to compare how different lengths translate into real space. Multihulls can change dramatically between roughly eighteen and twenty-three metres even when the basic layout philosophy remains similar.
Samana 59 keeps the package near eighteen metres
The Samana 59 sits at the lower end of the three LYG-focused yachts and is designed around fluid movement between cockpit, saloon and flybridge social areas. It offers substantial living volume without moving into the operational scale of a 24-metre-plus vessel.
That makes the model relevant to private owners who want meaningful guest capacity but still expect the yacht to function as a family or owner-led cruising platform. The balance of volume and manageability is a major part of its appeal.
Alegria 67 adds space while retaining private-yacht proportions
The Alegria 67 moves into a larger multihull footprint with more accommodation and separation between social zones. Owners gain additional privacy and storage, but also accept greater marina, handling and maintenance requirements as beam and systems complexity increase.
Comparing it directly with the Samana 59 helps buyers decide whether the extra scale solves a real cruising need. The best fit depends on guest numbers, intended voyage length and how much of the yacht's operation the owner wants to manage personally.
Thira 80 reaches the top end of LYG
The Thira 80 sits close to the upper limit of the LYG market at roughly twenty-three metres, offering significantly more deck area and interior volume while remaining under the 24-metre editorial boundary. It is therefore the clearest step toward large-yacht scale within this three-model comparison.
At this size, professional crew becomes more common even though the yacht remains below superyacht length. EMMYS therefore gives buyers a useful view of the transition point where private catamaran ownership begins to approach the operational expectations of much larger yachts.
