Kaohsiung, Taiwan – August 15, 2024 – Horizon Yachts is proud to announce the successful completion of the latest E75 Skylounge, an elegant and powerful yacht designed specifically for the Australian market. This model, which follows the brand's renowned craftsmanship, offers a perfect blend of contemporary design, advanced engineering, and luxurious amenities, making it an exceptional choice for discerning yacht enthusiasts.

A Masterclass in Design and Elegance

The Horizon E75 Skylounge stands out with its sleek and modern exterior, characterized by refined lines and extensive use of glass, which lend the yacht a sophisticated and streamlined profile. The main deck’s layout is thoughtfully designed, with an enclosed area that places the galley at the heart of the space, flanked by the forward dining area and the salon. This central positioning not only facilitates easy service but also enhances the social flow of the yacht, making it ideal for entertaining.

The galley features exquisite quartz countertops and Fenix Grigio Bromo finishings in a serene grey-and-blue palette, perfectly complementing the Andari-silver furniture found in the dining and lounge areas. Forward, a semi-circular dinette with a high-gloss European walnut table is bathed in natural light, thanks to the expansive overhead windows, creating a bright and inviting space.

The main lounge area, located on the opposite side of the galley, is defined by its distinctive arc-shaped sofas, which serve as a focal point and provide ample seating around a 65” TV. Aft on the main deck, a versatile seating arrangement around a Hi/Lo table offers flexible space that can be configured to suit various needs. Twin Disc Joystick Systems are installed on both port and starboard sides, enhancing the yacht's maneuverability.

Luxury Below Deck

Below deck, the E75 offers a three-stateroom layout, including a full-beam master stateroom amidships, a twin cabin to starboard, and a VIP stateroom in the bow. The master stateroom is a luxurious retreat, featuring ample storage space, including a walk-in closet, and a large ensuite with dual basins and a smart mirror, all finished in high gloss. The VIP stateroom and twin cabin are equally well-appointed, ensuring guests enjoy the highest levels of comfort.

Crew quarters for two are situated aft of the engine room, and the extended Hi/Lo swim platform has been upgraded to accommodate a 450kg/1,000lbs load capacity, further enhancing the yacht's versatility and convenience.

Performance Meets Comfort

The bridge deck of the E75 is home to an enclosed skylounge, which integrates the helm station with a second salon area. This space features twin chairs positioned forward and offset to starboard, while a curved sofa and Hi/Lo table ensemble can convert into a bed, providing a convenient spot for rest. A day head is located to port for added convenience.

The extended bridge deck aft offers a spacious outdoor living area, complete with a well-equipped entertainment space, including a wet bar, freezer, and BBQ station with three stern-facing bar stools. This area is shaded by a hard top, making it the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the views. The foredeck, with its sun pads and U-shaped dinette, offers a private terrace-like space where guests can unwind and enjoy the serenity of the sea.

Power and Precision

Beneath its sleek exterior, the E75 is powered by a robust propulsion system featuring twin MAN V8 1,300hp engines, an upgraded five-blade propeller, as well as bow and stern thrusters and Humphree stabilizers. These enhancements ensure that the E75 delivers a powerful and smooth performance, making it a perfect choice for the active Australian boating market.

The Horizon E75 Skylounge distills the most desirable features of larger yachts into a streamlined and efficient layout, offering expansive teak decks, a spacious swim platform, and a modern interior. This elegant and powerful yacht is ideal for couples, young families, or owner-operators seeking a yacht that combines style, performance, and versatility.
