Yacht or Penthouse? - Horizon V77S Tour & Review

Video Description

Join YachtBuyer, for a detailed walkthrough of the Horizon V77S. Based on the V68 but stretched with a clever drop-down transom platform, this planing yacht carries its helm on the upper deck to free a full-length saloon on the main deck. Headline stats include twin 1,150hp Caterpillars, 25 knot top speed, comfortable 20 knot cruise and around 300nm at a fast cruise. In size and intent, it brushes rivals like the Princess X80 and Absolute Navetta 70, not to mention the mighty Maritimo M75. On deck, the big story is that transformable platform which creates a waterline mezzanine cockpit for lounging, toys and easy swim access. The cockpit adds fixed dining, deep overhang shade and split mooring gear high and low for flexible docking, plus side gates on both sides. Wide bulwarks lead to a versatile foredeck with opposing sofas, two-way backrests, a sun canopy option and proper stowage for covers and fenders. The upper aft deck carries the tender on chocks with a crane and still manages a grill, fridge and bar. Inside, the main deck is a true open plan arrangement; almost condo-like. Aft lounging faces the TV with a handy bar and switch panel by the door. Amidships sits a full domestic-scale galley with a big island and stools, generous cold storage hidden behind timber facias, induction hob, oven and microwave, plus considered lighting and durable finishes. Forward, an internal dining area gives apartment-style separation for cooler climates. An internal staircase rises to the enclosed sky lounge helm with triple Garmin MFDs, in-house switching, STIDD seats and a dark, glare-free dash. This deck also adds a servery with fridge and ice maker, a ratchet-lift table at the dinette and a day head. Below, accommodation can be three or four guest cabins plus crew for two. The owner’s cabin brings a true walk-in wardrobe, a bureau and a split bathroom with sliding doors separating the shower and WC. Aft, the crew space is unusually generous for this size, finished to guest standards and connected to a neatly executed tech room and a super-tidy engine room housing twin generators, water maker and Humphree electric stabilisers. Ideal for owner-operators or family cruising with fishing in mind, the V77S blends American-style liveability with fast, offshore capability.
