Horizon PC60

Overview

The Horizon PC60 is a 60-foot luxury powered catamaran, positioned for family cruising, long-distance travel, and a high-quality maritime lifestyle. Compared to traditional monohull yachts, the PC60 utilizes a catamaran structure to provide greater lateral space, better sailing stability, and lower drag, resulting in more spacious interiors and outdoor areas. The yacht typically features a four-cabin layout, a large main salon, an open cockpit, and expansive fore and aft decks, accommodating large groups for multi-day cruises. The overall design prioritizes comfort, practicality, and extended living experiences, making it ideal for those seeking a "floating retreat."
 

Key Highlights

• Powered Catamaran Design: Stable sailing, less roll, and greater comfort.
• Wide Hull Space Advantage: Larger interior and deck area compared to similarly sized monohull yachts.
• Four-Cabin Layout: Ideal for family travel and extended multi-person voyages.
• Excellent Fuel Efficiency: The low drag design of the catamaran helps reduce fuel consumption during cruising.
• Large Outdoor Space: Perfect for sunbathing, dining, water activities, and gatherings with friends. Shallow draft: Allows access to shallow waters that are difficult for some traditional large yachts to reach.
• Good sailing capability: Suitable for coastal cruising, island hopping, and long-distance voyages.
• Luxury customization space: Interior and equipment can be personalized to meet the owner's needs.

Use Cases & Suitable Audience

The Horizon PC60 is primarily suitable for family owners who value space, stability, and comfort. It is ideal for weekend getaways, island hopping, coastal cruising, and multi-day sea voyages. The four-cabin layout can accommodate a family or a group of friends. For users who enjoy longer stays at sea, the spacious main salon, galley, and outdoor areas provide a more residential experience.

The PC60 is also suitable for owners upgrading from a 50-foot yacht. Compared to high-speed sports yachts, it emphasizes smooth cruising and living space; compared to large superyachts, it has a relatively manageable size and operating costs. If you plan regional voyages and want ample living space and good fuel economy, the PC60 is more suitable.
 

Cost of Ownership & Market Perspective

The Horizon PC60 is a 60-foot luxury powered catamaran. New boat prices typically range from approximately $2.5 million to $4 million, with the actual price influenced by engine, interior, navigation equipment, and customization options. The price of a used PC60 depends primarily on its year of construction, engine condition, maintenance history, and upgrades.

The annual cost of ownership for this class of yacht is typically 8% to 12% of the boat's price, mainly including marina berthing, insurance, fuel, engine maintenance, hull maintenance, and crew costs. While catamarans can reduce fuel costs through lower drag, their greater beam can increase marina berthing costs. Therefore, it's advisable to confirm the suitability of your local port for a 60-foot catamaran before purchasing.

From a market perspective, powered catamarans have gained attention in recent years from buyers who value family space and cruising capabilities. Horizon enjoys high recognition in the customized yacht market, and the PC60, balancing space, comfort, and cruising ability, is competitive in the high-end powered catamaran market.
 

Buying Advice

If you're looking for a luxury motorized catamaran suitable for long-distance family cruising with ample living space, the Horizon PC60 is worth considering. Its core strengths aren't top speed, but rather stability, space utilization, comfort, and long-term livability, making it particularly suitable for family vacations and island hopping.

When buying a used PC60, it's recommended to thoroughly inspect the hull structure on both sides, the engine and transmission system, electronics, hydraulic system, and hull maintenance records. Pay special attention to the compatibility of the beam with the target marina. If you prioritize quality of life at sea and long-distance cruising over high-speed driving, the PC60 is a highly practical choice.
