This beautiful Horizon features 4 staterooms plus crew, and a cockpit for increased versatility in water sports, boarding a tender, fishing, and getting on/off a dock. Beautifully maintained, recently (2022/23) upgraded, and with very low time on mains and gensets, she is virtually ready-to-go for summer cruising. She boasts an exceptional layout, with multiple grouping and entertaining areas.

The bridge deck is a highlight of the yacht, and a sunny gathering place for meals, viewing the scenery, or just soaking up the sun in a lounge chair. There is access from the aft deck, as well as from inside the boat, opposite the galley. A hardtop gives shelter from the sun and elements, while the spacious after deck can be utilized for lounge chairs when the tender has been launched. The radar mast on the hardtop can be unbolted and is hinged to drop for low bridge/boat house clearance.

There is a U-shaped settee with table to starboard, opposite a large L-shaped module containing a refrigerator, sink, ample stowage, and twin electric grills. Forward of the lounge area, is a forward-facing bench seat to starboard, and helm with bench seating to port. The sightlines are unobstructed from the helm area.

VAMOS A VER can be considered to be one of the finest cockpit motoryachts of her size and vintage on the West Coast. A low hour boat, she has been well outfitted and maintained, and has gone through extensive upgrading in 2022/2023. A superb seakeeping yacht, she has recently returned from a successful winter cruising season  in Mexico and the Sea of Cortez.

With her large, functional cockpit, spacious deck areas, and ease of movement throughout the vessel, she can be considered extremely versatile - perfect for an active family, or well-suited to entertaining afloat. She has numerous areas to gather guests for meals or cocktails together, or for one to sneak off to to find a quiet spot for some alone time.

Should water sports or fishing be of interest, the ease in which either can be accommodated from the cockpit really makes this yacht stand apart from others in her size.

Owned by only her second owners, VAMOS A VER can be considered ready to go - coastal cruising or entertaining aboard by her next owners. Awaiting her next owner, she is conveniently located just minutes from San Diego or Tijuana airports.

VAMOS A VER can be boarded through gates on the port or starboard decks, or more commonly across the broad molded swim platform, through one of the transom doors, and across the large and versatile cockpit. Rising up port and starboard from the cockpit are steps up to the California Deck. This area offers access to the side decks, stairway up to the flying bridge deck, and glass and stainless double sliders into the main saloon. Prominently featured on this deck is a large, high-gloss dining table with bench and hi-back chair seating, built-in end tables, and a cabinet with refrigerator. 

Moving forward into the main saloon, immediately to starboard is an elegant wet bar with a stairway down to the engine room and crew\'s quarters opposite to port. The area is spacious, light, and airy. Continuing forward and up one step are the galley to port, dining area to starboard, and pilothouse/helm area forward.

From the pilothouse/helm level, are weather doors out to both side decks, and a stairway down to the guest accommodations.

On the accommodations level, coming down the stairwell and towards the bow are the guest stateroom to port and the VIP forward. Heading aft is the guest stateroom to starboard and lastly the large master stateroom, centerline.

Heading back up to the helm level, there is a stairway abaft the dining area that goes up to the massive flyingbridge area. This area features the helm to port, with bench seating port & starboard, followed by a large settee and table to starboard, opposite  an entertaining area with double BBQ grills, sink, stowage, and refrigerator. Aft of the entertaining area is the stairway down to the California deck, and the athwartship-stowed tender.

The foredeck is reached from either side deck, and features a built-in bench seat, along with big sun pads atop the deckhouse.

 

VAMOS A VER has gone through systematic and consistent upgrades since changing hands in 2021, taking an already well-maintained yacht and making her even better. Among the recent upgrades, which have been performed in 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 are the following:
