Horizon launches 27m Mineral Water

Horizon has just launched the fourth Horizon E88 motoryacht, Mineral Water, which successfully completed her sea trials on 13 October 13 in Kaohsiung, Taiwan.

Powered by twin MTU 1920HP engines, the 27m (89ft) yacht ran smoothly and reached a speed of 23kt under fully loaded conditions.

Complying to owner Mark McKay's requirements, Horizon created an optimally designed shaft system and used lightweight materials to attain the lowest possible draft for the yacht.

Additionally, in order for Mineral Water to meet height restrictions for cruising under bridges, Horizon built the radar arch with a foldable feature that lowers the overall yacht height.

Mineral Water will be delivered to the owners in Australia in early November.
