Horizon FD110 Skyline Rivals

Which yacht is best for you? As always, it’s all about personal choice. Some may even choose their yacht based upon features such as: high-volume five-cabin suv, 2000 nm range + 20-knot top speed, semi-custom build and main deck owner’s stateroom.

Accommodation

If hosting guests overnight is your top priority, then the Horizon FD110 Skyline offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 10 guests with its 5 cabin layout option. Nonetheless, competitors like the Extra Yachts X115 and Gulf Craft Majesty 111 have a slight edge in guest accommodation, with the capacity to sleep up to 12 guests in 6 cabins. This makes them more suitable for those looking to maximize the number of family and friends accommodated onboard. The FD110 Skyline benefits from a master cabin with an en-suite bathroom, a his and hers dressing room and a dressing table is a standout and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. The Cantiere delle Marche Darwin 115 is tailored for somewhat smaller groupsoffering up to 4 cabins, yet can still deliver an outstanding level of comfort for family vacations.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Cantiere delle Marche Darwin 115 impresses with its extensive range of 5,000 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Gulf Craft Majesty 111, Sanlorenzo SX112 and Benetti Motopanfilo 37M all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Sanlorenzo SX112 is especially impressive, with a top speed of 23 knots and cruising speed of 20 knots. The Benetti 37M has an impressive gross tonnage of 395GT, the largest of the competitors here.
