Luxury charter yacht AURA – a customised 2023 Horizon FD90 – is now for sale as a going concern exclusively through Leigh-Smith Yachts.

LSY Director, Ryan Leigh-Smith originally sold the vessel in 2023 and worked closely with the owner on the upgrades and custom features.

AURA currently operates in the Whitsundays as a premium luxury charter offering. She has delivered solid charter returns since year one with forward bookings ahead during 2025.

Designed by esteemed Dutch firm, Cor D. Rover, AURA is hull #25 of the FD90, designed for the Australian charter market to 2C AMSA certification.

Inspired by the rugged profiles and onboard space of automotive SUVs, the FD Series is characterised by a broad beam (23 feet) and a high-performance piercing bow, which together create unrivalled space, comfort and stability.
