News: Horizon Births Twin RP110 Yachts

Horizon Gives Birth to Twin RP110 Yachts
​

It’s a story of being separated at “berth” for twin Horizon RP110 Superyachts, which have just launched and are now scheduled to be delivered to their respective owners in the U.S. and Australia. Despite hailing from different continents, these two owners have shared an identical yacht ownership path, which began in 2012 when they each bought a Horizon E78. From there, both owners moved into Horizon E88 yachts before commissioning their own RP110 Superyachts.

The RP110 Hull 5 (pictured below) has been built for a third-time Horizon owner from the U.S. and features a double chine hull designed by Donald Blount. Within her 25’ beam, the owner commissioned Italian designer Luca Dini to incorporate a casually elegant décor that pervades the spacious and flexible four-stateroom layout. Owing to Horizon’s willingness to customize to owner specification, the salon of this RP110 has been fitted with an exquisite 150-bottle wine storage unit, which was customized to satisfy the oenophile owner’s wine collection hobby.

The second Horizon RP110 features exterior styling from J.C. Espinosa and an interior designed by Cor D. Rover and has been completely tailored to her Australian owners’ preferences. Distinguished by an exterior profile that features floor-to-ceiling windows on the deckhouse and a dark blue hull, this yacht has been designed with a combined skylounge/open bridge configuration that offers a climate-controlled skylounge for family gatherings as well as open visibility from the bridge. Measuring 10’ 10”, the swim platform is large enough to facilitate sunning and water sports and can easily launch a three-ton tender.

“The coincidences surrounding these two RP110s are most unusual,” says Horizon Group CEO John Lu, “and it has been our honor to be a part of this story. As the two newest RP110s begin their adventures on opposites sides of the globe, their owners’ stories will continue – with memories made aboard two beautiful, high-performance and well-planned Horizon yachts.” The video below captures the RP110's launch and sea trials in Taiwan.
