About Encore

The 98ft (30m) Encore was built by Horizon in 2011 and refitted in 2021, bringing modern finishes and updated systems to a proven motor yacht platform. She welcomes up to 12 guests for day charters and sleeps 8 across 4 cabins for longer voyages, with a crew of 4 onboard providing full service.

 

Versatile Chartering

Encore is equally at home on a day trip as she is on a week-long cruise through Australia, New Zealand and Fiji. The 2021 refit modernised her living spaces and amenities, making her a comfortable option for groups who want a deck jacuzzi and a swim platform without the price tag of a brand-new yacht. At 12 knots, she reaches the best anchorages quickly, maximising time spent enjoying each destination. The crew keeps the experience smooth whether you have six hours or six days.

 

Fun on the Water

She carries 12 water toys including a jet ski, two sea scooters, two SUP boards, water skis, a wakeboard, two kayaks, towable inflatables, and surf and kite gear – available whether you book a half day or a full week. The crew prepares equipment at each stop, and guests can jump between activities at will. The swim platform makes water access easy for all ages, and the 14ft RIB tender is ready to ferry groups to beaches and shoreside restaurants.

 

Season & Destinations

Encore charters across Australia, New Zealand and Fiji in the Australia and South Pacific, following the best cruising conditions through the year. The prime chartering window falls within Jan, Feb, Dec. Her day charter flexibility makes Encore a strong choice for first-time charterers, special events, or anyone looking to explore the Australia and South Pacific at their own pace.
