hugo, your audio set up is excellent. even when you are forced to be close to the unwashed during a tour you can barely hear their talk. please give your audio technician a raise for work well done. lovely tour of a lovely boat.
I think they tried to put too much on the bow. I'm not one for laying out in the sun, so really prefer more room to sit up there, especially with that big sunbed aft. Love the salon door design, really alleviates the need for a separate drink fridgeand ice maker. Lower deck is an interesting layout, I'd love to see the 2 cabin design. As small as the single beds were, I think the seperate lounge design would work. You could probably bed down kids there if you wanted.
Enjoyable tour, thank you Hugo. I think I was expecting more from a Sunseeker. It didn’t seem very spacious for a 55, but I guess it’s got a lot of outside space and the expense of interior living.
Great tour. I'm liking the "lips" on this boat, and some others recently. Sunbeds hanging over the back means you don't need to cantilever the seat backrests. The front deck is incredible for a 55 foot sportscruiser, and again that lip gives VIP light without needing cushion removal. Very tidy boat, but about £2m too much for me.
Very interesting boat. It seem odd but I'd like to see 3 or 4 more with different options. The downstairs saloon seems interesting. Does the Galley move down there too?
Me too 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻. If you’re well funded and get one you’re going to have to put a big wedge of cash towards instruction as to how not to put the first scratch on it……
Hmm.. Seems to me you can find better value for that money somewhere else, sunseeker or not.. Not that I will ever have to deal with that particular dilemma though 😂
I’d love to pretend it was a deliberate soft focus effect but you’re right I failed to spot a sun creamed thumb print on the lens - the perils of a hot and sweaty boat show!
Not a particularly good looking boat in my opinion and it seems Sunseeker are being left behind in the interior design stakes as it's very bland compared to the Italians and the Kelly Hoppen designed stuff. That table at the bow was clearly an afterthought with the way it interfered with the middle backrest of the sun pad. For the money I'd definitely be looking elsewhere.

Err, I’d love to claim I had an audio technician but it’s all down to the Rode Go II mics!
The dual-sliding rear doors are ingenious!!
Agreed, simple but effective
That is a beautiful yacht to start with in the Sunseeker range, nice finishes and equipment levels. Nice tour Hugo thank you.
Thanks, their detailing has certainly improved in recent years

Good point re lower lounge doubling as a kids bed
Very smart yacht with a great interior, cheers. 👍❤️🇬🇧

It’s reasonably spacious for a three cabin sportscruiser of that length
Beautifully designed boat.
Big improvement.
Needs drinks fridge in cockpit though... 👍
Pretty sure you could fit one in that corner wet bar if you wanted, although it’s only six feet from the galley fridge!
@@hugoandreae3785 That's nearly a bus ride... 👍😂

I know the feeling!
You go Hugo! 😮😅
Thanks Chris

Yes
There is an option for a galley down layout
“entry-level” … I feel so poor right now.
Me too 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻.

You and me both!
Right...I just spent a 1050 € for a 2004 20 hp Yamaha 2-stroke outboard and was just thinking to up the game a bit...
Now I see this...😂
I’ll choose the Sunseeker Superhawk 55 for the same money.
802 McDermott Wells
Engine space…?
Hmm.. Seems to me you can find better value for that money somewhere else, sunseeker or not.. Not that I will ever have to deal with that particular dilemma though 😂
1.3M.....entry level. But in 4 years, you can sell it still for 1.1M!
With taxes and a couple of things like a tender north of 2 million. If, a big if, I had that kind of money I would be looking at tne used market.
Although I prefer this to the SuperHawk 55 . I think the Predator 50 and 57 both have better layouts than this boat.
Perhaps clean the lens next time? Very 1970s effect :-)
