- Join James Lumley from Sunseeker Southampton on a behind the scenes experience of close quarters manoeuvring and running at sea, a brand new 2021 spec Sunseeker Predator 55 Evo Sports Cruiser. Sunseeker Southampton (a part of the Sunseeker London Group) - 41 offices across 20 countries, we are the largest Sunseeker distributor in the world, covering the majority of the Mediterranean, Adriatic and Africa.
I am often asked what yachts are like to handle in close quarters and at sea, so took this opportunity to demonstrate how the awesome new Predator 55 Evo performs. We have a knowledgable team of training captains, who can take you from novice to expert aboard your own boat, so don't be put off by the daunting stories of how hard they are to drive!
A yacht such as this is a real proposition for those still wanting to maintain an owner-operator style of boating, with just 2 people onboard.

Excellent video, so much better than just watching someone endlessly opening cupboard doors👍
James, really impressed with Sunseeker at the SIBS, every customer was treated extremely well and the openness to show people the boat was superb. It was really great to get on board this boat, it may have been my favourite of the whole show. Keep up the good work, Matthew
Great to hear!
Really enjoy these video’s from start to finish. It’s educational and it’s lovely to see the boats in action as you get a feel of what they are about. ✌🏻😎.
She is so smooth and quiet - love it!
Nice work James and Kim... keep them coming, these vids are brilliant, thanks for making the effort to bring them to those of us that can only dream of owning a Sunseeker.
A fabulous Sunday morning viewing, thank you very much.
Great video James. Your “hands on” content is really good.
Great control there James, as you say 'slowly, slowly'
the show was truly amazing! thanks sunseeker for hosting me!
Fantastic!!
Excellent James, and also a big bravo to Kim
Nice to see how it is all done.
Nice....you make it look so easy.....nice boat, beauitful day, calm water, envious.... green with,..... you have a look of a man who really enjoys his job.
Yup, we're very lucky to do this for a living (although the weather isn't always this nice!!)
Thanks for your Sharing 🙇♀️🙏
Great content, best yet. Thanks for doing all that and holding a camera!
beautiful boat and a great video, I love this type and style
great demo on how an owner operator could dock this easily - great job and helpful for new boat buyers.
A great video james it’s nice to see the boats in action and not just tied up 🇬🇧😀👍🏻
Now that, was fun! 👌
I LOVE RADAR SHOTS!!! MORE PLEASE!!!!! Oh and the sound of the engines!
Will do!!
Splendid video James, you have splendid perks with your job - the predator suits you.
Great video and great job !
Great video! You two make a great team!
Very professional 👏
Great to see this underway all credit to you
Many thanks!
Thanks James great video. Good explanation of the trim tabs. We met briefly at SIBS, where I mentioned that I am working on my Sunseeker 23 the first production boat under the Sunseeker brand. If you are ever interested in where it all started, I’d be delighted to show you!
Love these videos James, seeing how to handle one of these beasts is very interesting. One of my earliest experiences was my Dad badly trying to berth on the Hamble when the tide was running fast! It was a disaster. Keep the camera with you it works so much better. Cheers.
Great video again James, great to see you try new things in filming. Thnx for the effort. Enjoyed it.
Thanks 👍
Lovely Lovely video and what a competent maneuvers demonstrated.
well done captain.
keep them coming
Ps.
excellent crew on deck that made the casting off & docking so much easier.
Thanks again
Very informative. Thanks
awesome
I love your videos.
Very impressive video, one of the best to be fair. Actually seeing a boat in action was brilliant and you are obviously a very skilled captain. Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Superb video James luv the predator range can’t believe how fast it is for the size al .
Super
Hi James, firstly cracking video, totally loved the actually working of trim tabs, seen tons of people speaking about them but actually very little in the way of how they actually work while at see. Second love the skinny jeans, both you and myself rock these, and third what amazing sparkle on your wife's shoes. Just saying as it shows I watch all you videos from start to finish.
Lovin your work James...!!
(Deffo could have used a second cam though...needed some b roll)
brilliant. Felt I was there! As usual, so impressed with how you manoeuvre these yachts so easily, and explain it so well.
Thank you
Thanks again!
Absolutely loved this video. Another excellent showing of not just the boat but the systems onboard and how easy it is to handle. Always love these videos and look forward to seeing more of them.
Do you vlog your trips on your own boat? Or is that more personal time you prefer not to share.
Keep up the great work james and look forward to your next upload.
Thanks for the positive feedback, yes we shoot a lot of stuff on our own trips, just never get a chance to sit and edit it all together. My boat is still not quite finished, but we will be doing all sorts on her once the refit is done.
@@TheVirtualYachtBroker really looking forward to seeing your videos and your boat should you ever get a chance to editing them. I know how time consuming they can be especially when you don’t have time to spend doing the edits and a lot of my videos usually go up months after the actual trip because of it.
Have a good day and keep up the great work.
James, you must have one of the best jobs? Driving Sunseeker Yachts and get paid! ❤
Love these videos. Don't see you use the joystick. Less effective than just using the throttles and thrusters individually?
Just a different way to do it. For some the joystick is the difference between getting off the dock or leaving the lines on, I'm lucky to do this several times a week, so just tend to stick with what I know.
Love this content mate. What kind of boat do you have?
We have a 29ft sports fisher (90% through a refit at the moment)
@@TheVirtualYachtBroker james, when are we going to get a tour of your boat?
Hi James, whats the recommended boat size versus being a solo driver? That size of boat seems to be solo'able .
Hi Grant, yes she would certainly be solo capable if the weather was reasonable and you had a suitable departure/arrival berth.
Hello James, are you ready to go boating with your boat?
Not quite, but hopefully not too much longer (work needs to slow down a little!)
How come that sandbank wasn't shown on the chart plotter? Doesn't it show that information?
The plotter needs a nav card in for fine cartography detail (the world is divided up into areas), so these are specced during pdi (when it is known where the boat will be used).
@@TheVirtualYachtBroker I see. Thanks.
I’m interested in the same boat. Any for sale?
Hi yes I have one, drop me an email and we can chat further.
Another great video, who's the chick?
My wife!!
300 litres an hour. So that means about £350 for every 40 miles in fuel? Yikes. I guess that's nothing if you can afford the boat in the first place.
