Owner Experience Review
Owners have used the E98 (New Build Specs)for family cruising, including a hull that joined the Horizon Owner’s Rendezvous in the Abacos, underscoring its suitability for Bahamas itineraries. As a flybridge motoryacht, it fits weekend leisure and coastal passages, and the layouts have been conceived to work for both owner-operators and fully crewed programs. Dedicated crew quarters and a charter-capable arrangement have drawn positive comments from captains and owners.
On the water, the high-performance planing hull by naval architect Jon Lindblom has been reported as efficient with good stability and seakeeping. Reviewers note a comfortable cruise in the high teens, around 19 knots, with ultimate top speed dependent on engine specification. During build and trials, an owner’s representative remarked, "Their attention to detail is unbelievable," with particular praise for the engine-room fit-out.
Onboard, owners emphasize how deeply the interiors can be personalized, noting without hesitation that Horizon Yachtsoperates as a true custom builder; the E‑Series offers multiple layout options to match an owner’s brief. Crew accommodations and overall ergonomics earn consistent praise. From a maintenance perspective, captains cite strong engine-room workmanship and responsive shipyard support during commissioning; no widespread systemic failures were flagged in early launch and test coverage, and routine heavy‑diesel (Caterpillar, per spec sheets) servicing is expected.
