2005 HORIZON YACHTS 82 Skylounge Compare

Built by Horizon Yachts in 2005, BABE is a 24.99-metre motor yacht — the 82 Skylounge model — that offers a balanced combination of comfort, usability and presence on the water. With a timeless hull design and a high-gloss wood interior, she has been exceptionally well maintained throughout her entire life, reflecting the dedication of a long-term owner who has cared for her with great attention to detail.

BABE accommodates guests across three staterooms and benefits from a stabilised platform, making her a comfortable vessel for extended cruising. Her proven hull delivers an 18-knot cruising speed and an approximate range of 400 miles, giving her genuine offshore capability for those looking to cover meaningful distances in comfort. The Skylounge configuration adds a further dimension to on-board life, providing an elevated, sheltered space ideal for socialising or enjoying the surroundings at anchor or underway.

BABE is well suited to buyers looking for a private cruising yacht that combines performance, range and easy ownership. Her manageable size, three-cabin layout and well-preserved condition make her particularly appealing for couples or small families seeking a reliable and characterful vessel for coastal or offshore passages without the operational complexity of a larger yacht.
