Taiwanese-based shipyard Horizon has announced the launch of its first 33 metre FD110. Now the new flagship of Horizon's FD (Fast Displacement) fleet, the yacht has a tri-deck design from Cor D. Rover.
The yacht is characterised by full-height windows, elongated decks and plenty of internal volume. Accommodation is offered for a total of ten guests in five cabins, with a large, light-drenched owner’s cabin on the main deck and four ensuite cabins on the lower deck. Crew quarters for six are located on the lower deck forward.
Italian lighting firm Slamp has used sculptural light fixtures alongside a blend of washed wenge wood and dark oak to create the yacht’s sophisticated interior. Polished chrome and pops of colour feature throughout.
The FD110 draws its inspiration from trending residential design. "The style throughout emphasises natural finishes, subtle coloring and clean, modern elements,” the yard said in a statement. “Stained walnut mimics the coziness of aged wood, while muted lacquer in French grey lightens up the tone overall.” In the galley, gleaming Cambria stone has been used to give the yacht a luxury feeling, even in the service areas.
Entertainment and relaxation are the cornerstones of the yacht’s design language. The FD110 boasts a large saloon with a dayhead and multi-purpose dining area that can serve as a breakfast bar or formal dining arrangement. It is connected to the exterior by sliding glass doors, which together with the large windows, contribute to an airy ambience.
Opportunities to unwind continue on the exterior, where the yacht is equipped with a large sundeck complete with a sunpad. There is also an enclosed skylounge with a wet bar, wine cooler and dayhead. As well as generous exterior areas on the aft, the FD110 also makes full use of its foredeck, which boasts its own jacuzzi and Portuguese bridge.
Twin Caterpillar engines power the yacht, and she is expected to reach a top speed of 21 knots.
Horizon's flagship line has proved popular already, with at least five units sold since it was released to the market.
