Horizon Yachts is excited to be back at the prestigious Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show (SCIBS) taking place May 22-25, 2025. Visit us at Pier G to experience the pinnacle of yachting excellence.

An impressive lineup of luxury yachts that exemplify innovation, performance, and bespoke design is in the cards. Prepare to be captivated by the unveiling of the FD90 Hull 30, FD80 Hull 12, and the sleek V74, alongside a selection of exceptional brokerage yachts. Plus, more details on the FD100 Skyline will be shared.

"We are proud to be presenting our most comprehensive and versatile display to date, including Australia's largest-ever Fast Displacement Series showcase," said Mark Western, Director at Horizon Yacht Australia. "From entry-level models ideal for owner-operators, to vessels offering full commercial AMSA certification and charter business potential, our lineup reflects the diversity and depth of the Horizon range."

Three superb builds lead Horizon's showcase:

Headlining the display is the FD90 Hull 30 with a full-beam enclosed skylounge, the latest evolution of Horizon's signature FD Series. As the 11th FD90 delivered to the Australian market and the 30th built globally, this stunning vessel underscores Horizon's unwavering commitment to the Australian market, with inventory available for immediate delivery and handover during the show. The FD90 is the most trusted and best-selling 90+ft motoryacht in Australia, purposefully designed to suit local conditions and highly regarded by Australian helmsmen for its space, stability, and performance. A personally guided tour of the FD90 is offered during the show. With limited availability and high demand, early registration is encouraged to secure an opportunity to experience the show's highlight firsthand. (Register your interest directly with or ).

Marking a milestone for Horizon in Australia, the FD80 Hull 12 was the second AMSA 2C-compliant yacht. With an adaptable layout suitable for both private and charter use, the main deck features floor-to-ceiling windows and a modern koto wood-refined interior. The full-beam master stateroom features a skylight, while the lower deck houses three ensuite staterooms. In the skylounge and bridge deck aft, a U-shaped sofa, dining table, and a heated Jacuzzi with a bar counter offer an exceptional setting for entertaining guests. Other standout details include a hydraulic folding radar mast for seamless bridge cruising and a ceiling engineered to support a one-ton helicopter.

The V74 is a sleek and modern design and presents an enclosed skylounge configuration with a spacious four-stateroom layout. Her plumb bow design and bold exterior profile are by Stimson Yachts, while the luxurious interior incorporates light Acacia satin wood floors, natural tones, and Michelangelo marble countertops. Wraparound side decks and the foredeck lounging area offer plenty of convenient amenities for enjoying the outdoors, while the beach club and a Hi-Lo swim platform facilitate water activities. Prioritizing comfort and functionality within a compact framework, the V74 is well-positioned as a market leader in its size category.

Together with these headliners, visitors can also look forward to a selection of outstanding brokerage yachts, including the FD75 Hull 4, which was the first FD75 sold in Australia and the first to feature an enclosed skylounge, and the RP125, the largest Horizon yacht sold in Australia and noteworthy for her low engine hours. Additionally, the RP100 Hull 33 and E75 Hull 72 will also be on the brokerage list.

Sneak Peek: FD100 Skyline

Horizon is thrilled to be offering a preview of the FD100 Hull 15, the world's first FD100 Skyline model, where Cor D. Rover's exquisite design takes center stage. This exceptional yacht will be available in the summer, with more details to be unveiled at SCIBS—stay tuned.

Horizon looks forward to welcoming clients, industry partners, and boating enthusiasts alike to experience the Horizon difference this year at Pier G.
