SUNSEEKER INNOVATION
MATERIALS
CARBON FIBRE is a lightweight yet extremely durable material and is extensively used in the yacht structure, hardtop sunroofs and more decorative features such as air intake cowlings and glazed handrails. Structures made from Carbon Fibre can lower the weight and overall centre of gravity of the craft, lending exceptional seakeeping capabilities.
DIAB FOAM is used extensively within the structural build of a Sunseeker. Its low-weight, flexible properties maximises yacht performance, increasing speed and reducing fuel consumption, making for a light, strong and fast craft.
MORE THAN PERFORMANCE
Sunseeker considers the structural arrangement of a yacht in detail at the concept design stage to maximise comfort on-board whilst cruising or at anchor. Employing efficient anti-vibration mounts helps to reduce noise transmission from within the yacht structure. The latest advancements in yacht building also include forming a core structured hull, making use of its natural dampening properties that help to reduce noise derived from the hull structure. Sunseeker installs specialist sound-absorbing materials within the engine room to ensure that you can enjoy your time on board with minimal noise disturbance.
DEEP-V HULL
Typical of all Sunseeker hulls is the renowned deep-V hull design. Over the decades Sunseeker has developed and refined an easily driven, soft-riding, deep-V hull design. An ingenious innovation in modern yacht design, resin-infused, deep-V hulls command exceptional agility, handling and precision.
ON-BOARD SYSTEMS
Sunseeker yachts are fitted with advanced on-board water filtration systems, specially designed to cleanse and rid water of any bacteria. Bilge water filters ensure that no harmful substances like oil, chemicals and micro-plastics escape into the seas or waterways, promoting cleaner and kinder-to-the-environment crafts.
SUPERIOR TECHNOLOGY
Sunseeker strives to maintain apace with relentless technology innovation in production and manufacturing. In recent years, the most radical Sunseeker models have required tremendous manufacturing assets to bring them to life.
CENTRE OF EXCELLENCE
Preserving the future of boat building, Sunseeker has invested in a dedicated Centre of Excellence for Design and Technology, which vertically integrates every detail of the yacht from initial concept design to completion, this allows for seamless quality control processes ensuring each yacht is built to perfection.
SUSTAINABILITY
Sustainability is at the core of our operations and innovation drives our commitment to reducing our environmental impact. We are proud to utilize biomass for site space heating, significantly cutting our carbon footprint while supporting renewable energy sources. Our dedication to sustainability extends to our production processes, where we have actively reduced single-use plastics, demonstrating our resolve to minimize waste.
Looking ahead, we are excited about our planned sustainability initiatives. The installation of solar PV systems will harness clean energy to power our operations, reducing reliance on non-renewable energy sources. Rainwater harvesting systems are set to further our water conservation efforts, ensuring we make the most of natural resources. Additionally, our exploration into the use of alternative fuels showcases our proactive stance in adopting greener technologies.
We believe that innovation and sustainability go hand in hand and are dedicated to leading the way in sustainable luxury yacht manufacturing, ensuring a brighter, greener future for generations to come.

SUNSEEKER HERITAGE
When Robert Braithwaite started up the engine of a small, open-cockpit speedboat in 1969, it wasn’t just the Hostess 17 that roared into life. It was a new standard of yacht making.
