Horizon E75 (Gen 1, 2016 - 2021) Rivals

Which yacht is best for you? As always, it’s all about personal choice. Some people choose their yacht based on its power credentials and the planing hull of the E75 delivers speeds of up to 22 knots.

Accommodation

If accommodating guests overnight is your main concern, then the Horizon E75 which offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 6 guests with its 3 cabin layout option does not match its rivals. Many of its competitors including the Horizon E75 and Riviera 72 offer slightly more guest accommodation sleeping up to 8 guests in 4 cabins, making them better choices for those seeking to maximise the number of family and friends they can sleep onboard. However, for maximum comfort for the owner, the E75 features a full-beam master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, a dressing room and a dressing table. Equivalently, the Gulf Craft 75 also offer 3 cabins, but with facilities for 6 guests, however they still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family vacations.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Horizon E75 has been designed for those not in a hurry, with the slowest cruising speed of the group at 19 knots and a top speed of 22 knots. The Horizon E75 emphasizes stability and comfort over outright speed and its target audience will be those who enjoy the journey over the destination. The title for the fastest cruising speed goes to the Azimut 72 which has an impressive cruising speed of 26 knots powered by its twin 1,400hp MAN V12-1400 engines and can reach a top speed of 33 knots. This is closely followed by the Ferretti Yachts 780 with a notable cruising speed of 27 knots and top speed of 31 knots.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Azimut 72 impresses with its extensive range of 872 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The shallow draft of the Gulf Craft 77 allows it to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The Ferretti Yachts 780 focuses on performance and efficiency, with a cruising speed of 27 knots. Meanwhile, the Azimut 72 offers the best raw performance, with a maximum speed of 33 knots.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Horizon E75 stands out with notable features and design elements. These yachts cater to a wide range of preferences and needs, making the choice a matter of personal taste and specific requirements in the world of luxury yachting.
