RIO for sale

Delivered in 2022 as a 2023 model by Horizon Yachts, RIO represents an opportunity to acquire a virtually new FD90 in turnkey condition. Purpose-built for coastal and island cruising across the Caribbean, Bahamas, and U.S. East Coast, this yacht offers a combination of volume and onboard luxury.

At 90’ (27.45m) in length with a beam of 23’4” (7.11m) and a draft of 6’ (1.83m), RIO delivers exceptional volume. Her GRP hull and superstructure are paired with Horizon’s proprietary High Performance Piercing Bow (HPPB) and Fast Displacement Hull Form (FDHF), a combination that ensures superior seakeeping, fuel economy, and ride comfort across a range of speeds and conditions. Performance is driven by twin MTU 16V engines (2,060 hours each) with extended warranty through 2027, achieving a cruising speed of 11 knots and top speeds between 17 and 19 knots. Fuel burn is efficient, with consumption measured at 32 gallons per hour at 9 knots, 40 gallons at 10.5 knots, and 100 gallons at 15.5 knots. Stabilizers (at anchor and underway), along with bow and stern thrusters, deliver confident handling and guest comfort underway and at rest.

The interior is designed around light, flow, and function. The main salon features panoramic windows, an open lounge area, and a forward dining space, all finished in a contemporary palette of natural woods and neutral tones. The enclosed galley layout offers a more refined and private service experience, distinguishing this build from open-plan alternatives. On the upper deck, a skylounge with fold-out bed leads to an aft bridge deck equipped with a dining table, grill, and lounge area, shaded by custom sun sails for all-day usability.

Guest accommodations are generous and flexible: five en-suite cabins support up to 10 guests, complemented by quarters for four crew. The full-beam master suite on the main deck includes a king-size bed, dressing area, and a spacious en-suite bath. Below, two queen cabins, a VIP that converts from king to twins, and a midship cabin that converts from twins to a queen provide adaptable sleeping arrangements suitable for family use or charter flexibility.

Exterior spaces are optimized for lifestyle. The aft deck supports alfresco dining with direct access to a hydraulic swim platform that forms a lounge at water level. Forward, a Jacuzzi and bow lounge offer private open-air relaxation. The flybridge features sunpads and shaded entertaining zones. Watersports equipment includes a 2022 Zodiac Open 18’ tender, two Seabobs, a Fliteboard, two paddleboards, plus snorkeling, scuba, spearfishing gear, and a Tiwal inflatable sailboat.
