Horizon FD90 Skylounge Rivals

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

Accommodation

If your priority is guest accommodation then the Horizon FD90S offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 10 guests with its 5 cabin layout option. The FD90S benefits from a full-beam master cabin with a his and hers en-suite bathroom, a dressing table and a sofa is a standout and all cabins have dedicated en-suite bathrooms for family or guest convenience. The Princess X80 and Ocean Alexander 27R, although designed for slightly smaller groups of 10 guests in 5 cabins, still offer an exceptional level of comfort for family or group getaways.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Horizon FD90S has been designed for those not in a hurry, with the slowest cruising speed of the group at 10 knots and a top speed of 16 knots. The Horizon FD90S 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 Princess X80 which has an impressive cruising speed of 25 knots powered by its twin 1,900hp MAN V12-1900 engines and can reach a top speed of 31 knots. This is closely followed by the Sunseeker Ocean 182 with a notable cruising speed of 12 knots and top speed of 27 knots.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Ocean Alexander 27R impresses with its extensive range of 2,000 nautical miles, ideal for long voyages. The Ocean Alexander 27R and Princess X80 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.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Horizon FD90 Skylounge 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.
