Specifications

A foundation of ABS/DNV type-approved fiber/resin and sandwich core materials underpins a one-piece hull and superstructure executed with SCRIMPTM technology and Horizon’s patented 6Dinfusion, incorporating longitudinal and transverse stringers for unwavering rigidity. The hybrid hull bottom blends sandwich construction and solid fiberglass, while high-density Divinycell or equivalent foam cores reinforce the hull sides, decks, superstructure and the stringers themselves. Every interior structural element is meticulously bonded to the hull, and a robust collision bulkhead enhances safety. A white gelcoat finish graces the hull above the waterline, exterior decks and furniture, and the underwater body benefits from international anti-fouling bottom paint with anti-osmosis treatment, complemented by PropSpeed/PropGold metal coatings on underwater appendages. Efficiency is refined through tunnels for reduced draft, and authority at sea is asserted by a High Performance Piercing Bow (HPPB) with S/S protection plates. On deck, a purposeful geometry reveals an upper deck with bump-out design at PORT and STBD, and an asymmetrical open-skylounge arrangement with a STBD-side wide body, including a non-skid ledge and a grab rail above, for confident movement and commanding views.

Exterior deck & equipment

Teak lays the stage across the aft deck, the swim platform, the open skylounge and the stairways leading to the upper deck and the platform, with non-skid finishing the remaining walkways. A sleek FRP cap rail frames the profile, while anchoring muscle comes from a pair of Maxwell VWC3500 vertical hydraulic anchor winches with local foot switches and remote control, supported by two Maxwell VC2500 electrical rope capstans on the aft deck. Ground tackle is formidable: two ACCO 300 ft high-tensile 1/2" anchor chains feed two 100 kg S/S anchors through twin S/S rollers with a chain stopper, with chain counters—one per windlass—conveniently positioned at the pilothouse. Heavy-duty 316 S/S cleats and fairleads with rollers partner with two aft-deck corner hawsers, and the bulwarks integrate flush-mounted courtesy lighting. Boarding is effortless via two bulwark side doors at the aft deck and a MarQuipt seven-step aluminum side-boarding sea stair with an FRP storage box. A manual freshwater/seawater anchor-chain washdown system keeps the forepeak pristine, and a continuous 1-3/4" handrail with 1-1/2" S/S stanchions and a steel safety cable encircles the yacht. A bow S/S flagpole flies the colors, while standard lines accompany ProStock fenders—PF7 in four units and PF36x48 in one unit—with Horizon logo covers. Up front, the Portuguese bridge carries sofa seating as laid out, and the foredeck sunpad presents cup holders and two pop-up lights, with a hidden sink discreetly set into the FWD PORT sidewalk.

Glasswork is refined and resilient: the windshield is frameless, crafted in slightly tinted, tempered, laminated Low‑E glass, and the side windows are frameless in tinted, tempered, laminated glass. Movement flows naturally via stairs from the aft deck to the swim platform with S/S gate doors and handrails, a locally crafted S/S electric sliding entrance door to the salon, and deckhouse sliding side doors with inflatable seals—one to each side—plus a wind door each side of the aft deck to its side walkway. Social life expands with a full aft-deck seating set that includes a Hi‑Lo, slidable table with two leaves, a rear sofa with backrest and a side countertop, and an aft-deck bar equipped with a sink, a Vitrifrigo refrigerator and an ice maker (C85IXD4X and IMHYDIXN1‑X). One integrated stair rises from the aft deck to the upper deck. At water level, a hydraulic Hi‑Lo swim platform serves double duty as a tender lift up to 2500 lbs / 1130 kg and carries two pop-up cleats; two boat hooks stand ready; a built-in hot/cold shower crowns the platform; and an extractable or foldable swim ladder invites the sea. Shade is assured by sun awnings for the foredeck and upper deck—two sets in total. Protection includes a rub rail tracing the hull sides and S/S portholes, among them two openable units in the master stateroom and one in the galley. Exterior LED step lights guide every stride, and the swim platform features two removable corner rails of 2", with four extra sockets on the fixed platform. The yacht is prewired for an LED boat name on PORT, STBD and stern—three sets, maximum 8 letters per set—and exterior doors are supplied with screens where applicable, excluding the curved door, L-shaped hatch door and pantograph door.

Garage

A purposeful utility bay begins with a non-skid floor and is accessed through a hydraulic stern door featuring a pantograph door at its center. Storage is arranged as per the layout to keep equipment secure and close at hand, while a Miele laundry pairing—washer and dryer (WXF660 and TXD160WP)—delivers domestic convenience that matches the yacht’s cruising ambitions.

Open skylounge & boat deck

The custom asymmetric open skylounge sets a relaxed yet refined tone: to PORT, a two-level bar gathers four stools around a sink, a Vitrifrigo C85IXD4X‑1 refrigerator and an IMHYDIXN1‑X ice maker, joined by a SUMMIT SCR611GLOSHLHD wine cooler; to STBD, a U‑shaped settee with a table follows the layout to frame the views. Underfoot, teak flooring brings warmth and grip, the ceiling is pre‑wired for future fans, and a hardtop hatch with a ship‑loose retractable ladder provides easy access above.

Aft, the boat deck continues in teak (excluding the side walkways) and is arranged per the upper‑deck layout with two L‑shaped sofas and side tables. Engineering foresight includes pre‑wiring and structural reinforcement to accept a davit rated at 2500 lbs and a hot tub (JNJ Spa‑543) when desired. Exterior cushions and sunpads are trimmed in Andari/Trend/4 Spaces/Fabrica fabrics, and Stamoid “Smart 1” or equivalent white covers safeguard the upper‑deck loose furniture, helm seats, aft‑deck seats and the foredeck sunpads and seats. One hidden Propane 24" BBQ with manual Hi‑Lo elevates open‑air entertaining, while oversized drains with strainers at each upper‑deck corner and internal overboard drains keep the deck dry. A radar arch with an antenna bracket supports navigation, joined by two Tokai Sanshin LED search lights and four Lumitec flooding lights—two on the mast and two on the upper deck. Chrome‑plated Buell air horns crown the arch; a stern S/S flagpole flies proudly; LED warm white lighting illuminates the Horizon logo on the PORT and STBD sides; and safety readiness is assured with an eight‑person life raft with bracket (A pack, two units).

Engine & propulsion details

Authority and finesse converge in a drivetrain anchored by twin diesel engines with reduction gears, delivering smooth, efficient thrust throughout the range. Live SAE‑C PTOs on the gearboxes feed continuous power to the thrusters, windlass and stabilizer system, while SAE‑A PTOs on the engines drive the hydraulic steering gear for confident, feedback‑rich control. The Seatorque shaft system integrates the Seatorque Bolt On Shaft System “BOSS” M4B with AQ22HS stainless‑steel shafting, a Cardan shaft and QuicKutter line cutters to reduce vibration, enhance alignment and add line‑shedding resilience. High‑performance VEEM Superyacht six‑blade propellers translate torque into quiet, bite‑rich propulsion, supported by bronze struts with backing plates for unwavering stability. Directional authority comes from twin FRP foil‑balanced blade rudders with stainless‑steel stocks, sealed by Tides Marine dripless rudder packing glands for dry, dependable operation.

At the helm, ZF Mathers engine controls with chrome control heads are installed at each station for precision response. A remote handheld control with throttles, gears and thrusters connects via two plugs—one on the aft deck and one in the pilothouse—expanding docking options; the Yacht Controller Supremo STL wireless system further elevates close‑quarters mastery with acceleration, thruster and windlass buttons and a digital cone antenna. The Hypro power steering system delivers effortless accuracy; an S/S emergency tiller resides in the rudder cabin for redundant assurance; and 24" stainless‑steel steering wheels complete the tactile command suite. The engines exhaust underwater through a system equipped with bypass mufflers, reducing noise and back‑pressure for poised departures and arrivals.

Comfort and control underway and at rest are secured by the Side‑Power hydraulic stabilizer system SPS93B with VF1650 fins measuring 1.65 square meters and featuring an “At Anchor” function. Maneuvering muscle is delivered by a Side‑Power hydraulic bow thruster SH550 rated at 550 kg and a stern thruster SH420 rated at 420 kg, while a Zipwake interceptor system continually optimizes running attitude for efficiency, visibility and comfort.

Mechanical systems

An engineered backbone of marine‑grade piping runs throughout the yacht, organized by a color‑coded scheme for instant identification. In the engine room, strainer plumbing incorporates a crossover line, freshwater flush and an extra custom cap to streamline service, and the vessel arrives pre‑wired and pre‑plumbed for a future diving compressor.

Fuel management is robust and redundant: fuel tanks are fitted with sight and electric gauges with capacity as specified in the Principal Dimensions; ISO‑grade fuel hose serves the entire circuit; each engine breathes through dual Racor 75/1000 MA fuel filters/water separators; each generator is protected by a Racor 500 MA; and transfer duties are handled by two Oberdorfer electric fuel transfer pumps. An oil‑change pump system services engines, gears and generators, while a Reverso FPS210 fuel polishing system keeps the supply clean and ready for passage‑making.

The freshwater system centers on an FRP water tank with capacity as specified in the Principal Dimensions, with freshwater hose bibbs at the foredeck, aft deck and upper deck simplifying washdowns and maintenance. Hot water is assured by two 30‑gal water heaters, pressure is maintained by a high‑volume Headhunter AC freshwater pump with a DC pump in reserve, and purity is elevated by a Spot Zero watermaker package (SeaXchange XTCII 1800 and ZTC II 2000). A dedicated freshwater outlet and hose simplify filling engine and generator expansion tanks; charcoal filters are plumbed into the shore‑water inlet and the galley line; and a hot‑water circulation pump ensures instant comfort at every tap.

Climate control is delivered by a Marine Air Dometic Smart Start chilled‑water air‑conditioning system with air handlers throughout the interior, including the engine room, rated at 18K BTU with integrated controllers. Humidity is mastered by a Honeywell dehumidification suite—Honeywell DR65A3000 in five units, each with a T10 Pro smart thermostat control panel. For resilience, a backup Side Power seawater cooling pump supports the stabilizer, and a ship‑loose backup air‑conditioning seawater circulation pump rides aboard ready for rapid change‑out.

Sanitary systems are equally comprehensive: a Headhunter and Tecma toilet installation feeds a 200‑gal holding tank with a deck fitting for dockside pump‑out, and a 100‑gal sump tank with pump serves each shower and washer drainage area. Treatment is handled by a Headhunter TW‑HMX 6001LP sanitary system, with electric level indicators monitoring both holding and sump tanks.

Dry confidence below the sole comes from electric Rule bilge pumps complemented by two manual bilge pumps located in the engine room and forward staterooms, a high‑water bilge alarm, bilge exhaust ventilation fans, and a deck wash‑down pump with outlets at the chain lockers and the transom. Fire protection is multi‑layered: the engine room is fire‑insulated; pipe penetrations receive fire‑resistant treatments; a fixed fire extinguisher protects the engine room with a remote pull station; automatic/manual shutdown and automatic fire damper systems stand ready; five portable fire extinguishers are positioned throughout; three ship‑loose fire blankets are supplied; and an integrated fire alarm system in the pilothouse ties together CO and smoke detection in the accommodation spaces with heat detection in the galley and the engine room. Throughout, marine‑grade pipes are applied across the boat to ensure long‑term reliability.

Electrical systems

The yacht’s electrical architecture is purposeful and intuitive, beginning with color‑coded wiring for instant identification and anchored by AC and DC main panels with circuit breakers. Distribution is refined through sub‑panels with breakers in each zone, while an emergency power and lighting package stands ready for contingencies. AC receptacles are thoughtfully placed throughout, including the engine room, and every exterior, head, galley and engine room outlet is safeguarded by GFI protection. Generator hush is elevated by a fiberglass water/exhaust separator, long‑term integrity is preserved by an electrolysis bonding system, and the running gear is shielded by cathodic protection with zinc anodes on shafts, struts and beyond. Atmosphere and control are curated with indirect lighting under the valances in the salon, staterooms, open skylounge and galley, LED ceiling‑light dimmers on the aft deck and open skylounge, and separate dimming for the salon, pilothouse, master and VIP staterooms. Italian Vimar outlets and switches enrich every touchpoint, a motion‑detection light at the guest foyer near the staircase guides night movement, eight underwater lights sculpt the waterline after dark, and the yacht is pre‑wired and pre‑engineered to accept a FLIR M364C night‑vision system when desired.

Power delivery is robust and precisely specified. The AC electrical system is 240V/120V, single‑phase, 3‑wire, 60Hz. Starting duties are handled by four 255 Ah 12V AGM batteries dedicated to engines and generators, supported by two battery chargers; ship’s service is entrusted to eight 210 Ah AGM batteries feeding the 24V DC network through two combined inverter/chargers; and two 210 Ah emergency batteries are located above the main deck with a dedicated, independent charger. All batteries are securely enclosed with proper fixtures, an ignition‑protected battery switch adds an extra layer of safety, and system intelligence is delivered by an Octoplex multiplexing power distribution system paired with a Maretron monitoring and control backbone.

Shore‑side connectivity is effortless via two Glendinning shore power Cablemasters, each 100 Amp with a 75' power cable. Twin shore power connections employ 100 Amp ISO boost polarization transformers with galvanic isolators, while two 100 Amp shore power plugs and two 100 Amp bow inlets provide flexible access points to suit every berth.
