Horizon Yachts joined the Seattle Boats Afloat Show for the first time for the Fall Show 2024. Organized by the Northwest Yacht Brokers Association since 1978, The Boats Afloat Show is known as the largest floating boat show in the Pacific Northwest with more than 150 world-class craft on display and is a favorite among boaters across the U.S. and Canada.
The Horizon West Coast Team moved the brand-new Horizon V77 CMY from the Salmon Bay Marine Center in Seattle on Monday, September 9th, and arrived at South Lake Union to dock and begin preparations for the show. The show kicked off on Wednesday evening with a VIP Cocktail Party and guests were invited on board to tour the V77 CMY and learn about the customized features that included the enclosed skylounge and fold-down transom. The grand presence of Horizon Yachts at the dock drew attention from people passing by and the V77 CMY was the most visited vessel throughout the evening.
The show continued through the weekend and boat show attendees toured the V77 CMY while the Horizon Team, consisting of Eli Arvidson and Luis Reyes, were available to answer questions and provide personal tours of the vessel. Guests were impressed with the multiple interior entertainment options to accommodate the climate of the Pacific Northwest. The fold-down transom was a popular feature with the attendees because it allows the option to be on deck while the sun is shining. The matte finishes, the toned-down furniture and light-colored marble were popular talking points amongst the guests who were also impressed with the open galley and excellent use of space.
With its exceptional layout and spacious interior, the V77 CMY was the perfect vessel to introduce the Horizon Yachts’ brand to the boating community in the Pacific Northwest. The Horizon Yachts team met new boating enthusiasts from the Northwest and Canada, as well as current Horizon owners who stopped by to say hello and tour the new V77 CMY. These conversations allowed the Horizon Team to extend the invitation to the guests to visit the V77 CMY at the Horizon West Coast Office in the Salmon Bay Marine Center after the end of the show.
After the event wound down on Sunday afternoon and boats began pulling away from the dock, the Horizon Team agreed that the Fall Boats Afloat 2024 surpassed their expectations and plan to regularly attend the upcoming Boats Afloat Shows in the years ahead. After receiving such positive feedback and reviews about the V77 CMY, the team is now evaluating what Horizon model to showcase next at the Horizon Yachts Seattle West Coast Office.
