Description
HORIZON is currently under construction at newly formed Leapher Shipyard in Holland with a scheduled delivery date of September 2025. Leapher Shipyard has been formed with a team combining over a 130 years of experience with heritage from well known shipyards such as Feadship, Oceanco, and Heesen. HORIZON is a polar classed 60m explorer with massive volume of 1,700GRT that is currently under construction, hull already completed and the superstructure is being assembled + all major machinery already delivered to the shipyard. Construction will continue as planned so this is an excellent opportunity for a new client to step in and take advantage of a relatively short delivery period for a true global explorer and still be able to customize the project to make it uniquely their own.
