The Horizon E75 is a 76-foot luxury flybridge yacht that was launched by award-winning Taiwanese yacht-building company Horizon in 2016. Successor vessel to the immensely popular E73, this updated watercraft is a curvaceous, stylish cruiser with half-moon glazing, a wealth of outdoor space and a sleek finish throughout. Big enough for the whole family but compact enough for owner-operators, the E75 guarantees and fun and sporty ride.
The flybridge is split between a sun terrace to aft that can also be used for tender storage and an enclosed upper-lounge with 360-degree views and a skylight. Outside you will find a walk-in wet-bar with granite, Corian or marbled surfaces or an elevated jacuzzi, while indoors there is a swish L-shaped leather sofa, a parquet or timber floorboard sole and a centrally located helm station with Stidd helm seating. The dashboard up here boasts Garmin MFD screens, bow and stern thruster controls, power-steering, ABT stabilizer switches, a high-speed compass and VHF radio.
The best spot to soak up the rays on this beautiful vessel is out on the foredeck, where a forward sofa with a breakfast table is joined by a double-width sunpad featuring flip-up headrests, integrated cup-holders and astonishing views. Follow discreet guardrails all the way back to transom to discover a shaded aft-deck with teak decking, an outdoor bar and a sprawling transom sofa with room for a dining table. Side steps lead down to a split-level swimming deck with a hydraulic platform and access into a stern-side room that can be used as a crew quarters or as a water-level bar.
Interiors can be customized to match your taste, with options including grey oak, high-gloss maple or dark exotic timber surrounds. Widescreen glazing, sliding glass doors, mood lighting and plenty of plush seating options make the main-deck salon the social hub of this yacht, while further forward there is a live-aboard kitchen with high-end appliances and your choice of marble or granite countertops. Ahead of the galley you will find a snug dining lounge for up to five guests with mullioned forward glazing.
Typical lower-deck layouts feature sleeping quarters for up to six overnight guests, with rooms down here boasting oval portholes, mullioned or picture-frame hull glazing. You can also expect refined carpeting, authentic timber surfaces and a sedate atmosphere on this level. A twin cabin to starboard features its own en-suite with a shower, while a VIP stateroom by the bow includes a queen-sized island bed, two full-height closets and a large bathroom. The full-beam master stateroom amidship impresses with a king-sized bed, a work-desk, a side sofa, a walk-in closet and a couple’s bathroom with two sinks and a wet-room shower.
This yacht is powered by twin 1136HP Caterpillar C18A diesels as standard, though some models also feature a pair of 1200HP MAN V8 engines or upgrades to Caterpillar C32s. The former option should produce top speeds of around 22 knots, while the upgrades take the high-speeds to 27 knots. A 1,720 gallon fuel tank and an efficient hull, meanwhile, are primed for long-haul adventures of up to 900 nautical miles at cruising speeds.
