Horizon Yacht FD 102 Series

From the design studio of Cor D. Rover and Horizon Yachts, the FD Series offers advanced fast displacement motor yachts that blend modern flair with functional living and entertaining spaces.

Horizon Yacht FD 102 Series

One of the first things to notice about this second Horizon FD102 is that she’s a Skyline version. This means she has an enclosed sky lounge, which the owners are outfitting for lounging as well as dining. The main deck offers plenty of inviting areas for dining or relaxing, and a large lounge area comprises the main deck aft with access to the swim platform. In a change of pace, the tender won’t sit aft of the sky lounge, however. Rather, the toy as well as the davit to launch it will go forward. This, in turn, frees up more alfresco space on the uppermost deck. Providing a fantastic accommodation the yacht offers the five staterooms features a full-beam master on the main deck with four further staterooms comprising a king, two queen-sized beds and a twin on the lower deck.
