Fishing aboard the all-new Horizon ES88

An unforgettable day aboard the all-new Horizon ES88 Sport Yacht on the waters of Australia’s Gold Coast. 🎣🛥️ Lines tight, reels screaming and plenty of action — with fresh cobia and kingfish hitting the deck, this was one of those days on the water we won’t be forgetting anytime soon. And aboard this particular Horizon ES88, fishing isn’t an afterthought. This highly customised yacht has been specifically set up to make the most of the Australian boating lifestyle — whether that means heading offshore in search of big fish, spending the afternoon anchored with friends, or entertaining well into the evening. For serious days on the water, the ES88 features two dedicated live bait tanks, giving anglers plenty of capacity to keep bait healthy and ready when the action starts. The expansive aft entertaining area has also been designed to transition effortlessly from fishing mode to entertaining mode, with a dual teppanyaki grill, fully equipped bar and an electric aft awning providing additional shade and protection when needed. Catch your own dinner, fire up the teppanyaki grills pour a drink at the bar and enjoy it all from the aft deck — this is exactly what Australian yachting should be about. The Horizon ES88 - The Horizon ES88 represents a new expression of luxury performance yachting, combining a sleek, sporty profile with the craftsmanship, engineering and customisation Horizon Yachts is renowned for. Designed by Cor D. Rover, this highly customised ES88 features a single-level profile, four-stateroom accommodation, custom pilothouse helm, tender garage and an expansive main-deck galley — all designed around the way her Australian owner wants to use the yacht. With a 12,000-litre fuel capacity providing extended cruising capability, the ES88 has been created with Australian waters and long-range adventures firmly in mind. From offshore fishing trips and chasing pelagic species to extended coastal cruising, entertaining family and friends or simply dropping anchor somewhere spectacular, the ES88 brings together serious capability and luxury in one incredible package. And because the Horizon experience doesn’t finish when the engines turn off, we brought the day’s catch home to Horizon Yacht Australia HQ at Sanctuary Cove on the Gold Coast. From ocean to plate, it doesn’t get much fresher than cobia and kingfish prepared as sashimi after an incredible day offshore. This is what Horizon is all about. More than yacht ownership — it’s a lifestyle. Good yachts. Great fishing. Even better company.
