We have recently just booked a 60ft Horizon power cat and was wondering if anyone has had any experience with one?
Thank you!

Have seen 2 of them and really liked what I saw. Easily could give up sail for a good power cat.
This is a crewed boat, not bareboat for those wondering. Pretty sure Virgin Traders has it on their website.

It is most likely Sea Boss. Looks like Horizon also does them directly from their website.

Trying to imagine adjacent 60 footers at Cooper! Don't leave your dinghy at your stern.
