Horizon FD80 Rivals

Which yacht is best for you? As always, it’s all about personal choice.

Accommodation

If accommodating guests overnight is your main concern, then the Horizon FD80 which offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 8 guests with its 4 cabin layout option does not match its rivals. Many of its competitors including the Ocean Alexander 27R and Ocean Alexander 27R NGP offer slightly more guest accommodation sleeping up to 10 guests in 5 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 FD80 features a master cabin with an en-suite bathroom and a dressing table and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. Equivalently, the Numarine 26 XP and Arcadia Sherpa 80 also offer 4 cabins, but with facilities for 8 guests, however they still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family vacations.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Numarine 26 XP impresses with its extensive range of 3,500 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Ocean Alexander 27E and Arcadia Sherpa 80 all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Princess X80 is especially impressive, with a top speed of 31 knots and cruising speed of 25 knots. The Ocean Alexander 27E has an impressive gross tonnage of 160GT, the largest of the competitors here.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Horizon FD80 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.
