Horizon Polaris successfully completes sea trials

Since her launch earlier this summer, Horizon Polaris has successfully completed five sea trials; among these sea trials was a journey to Pong Hu, an island off of Taiwan, for an extended two-day cruise crucial to examining the EP148’s durability and operational performance.   

Designed for worldwide exploration, the Horizon EP148 Horizon Polaris superyacht features long-range cruising capabilities with high performance, reliability and luxury.

Throughout the EP148 Horizon Polaris sea trials, professional QC engineers from all departments conducted rigorous and extensive testing on all mechanical systems, including stability tests, speed tests, vibration tests, zero stabilizer tests, turning radius tests and steering tests; as well as testing all facilities and equipment on board for successful operation. 

The EP148 Horizon Polaris is capable of over 4,500 nautical miles at 9 knots and a top speed of over 16 knots.

Founded in 1987, Horizon is one of the world’s top 10 luxury megayacht builders.  For further information visit, www.horizonyacht.com
