Horizon Yachts launches new 27m FD90

Taiwanese yard Horizon Yachts has launched the 22nd hull in its popular FD90 fast displacement series.

The 27.45 metre yacht is the first in the series to feature a JUNG automation system, which allows the owner to control lighting, window treatments, audio and aircon through a phone or an iPad.

Constructed in GRP to a design by Cor D. Rover and defined by its plumb bow, the tri-deck yacht possesses a beam of 7.1 metres and an internal volume of 185GT.

Stand out amenities include a fully equipped beach club with a bar and lounge settee that converts into a bed. 

Elsewhere, the yacht features a cosy enclosed skylounge aft, which is accessed along a painted feature wall. The main saloon hosts a large sofa and armchair alongside a dining table for six guests and a glass cabinet. The area is defined by large glass windows on either side, affording guests a clear view of the ocean.

The aft deck features a convertible coffee table, which hints at the “contemporary Art Deco vibe within the interior” according to the yard.

Accommodation on board can sleep eight guests in four staterooms, including a main deck master suite with its own in-built ‘love-seat’, two VIP staterooms amidships and a twin cabin on the lower deck. Crew quarters for a team of four are located aft of the engine room.

Twin MAN V12 engines power the yacht to a top speed of 19.4 knots and a cruising speed of 10 knots.
