Sunseeker announces nine models for Cannes Yachting Festival
The Poole shipyard has revealed a nine-model line-up including the Superhawk 55 and 75 Sport Yacht that debuted at Boot Dusseldorf this year.
Sunseeker has released a nine-model line-up for this year’s Cannes Yachting Festival (September 12-17), where the British builder will host guests at an exclusive VIP lounge and a Whispering Angel bar courtesy of Moët Hennessy.
The line-up of yachts is headed by a spectacular edition of the 100 Yacht in Midnight Grey and includes the new Superhawk 55 and 75 Sport Yacht, which both had their world premieres at the Boot Dusseldorf indoor show in January.
An open day boat design, the Superhawk 55 (click for article) is a new addition to the Poole shipyard’s Performance series and has proved a hugely popular addition to the portfolio, with the entire Willis Way facility dedicated to its production.
The Manhattan series of flybridge motor yachts will be represented by the Manhattan 55 and 68. The Predator 65 will represent the builder’s sport cruiser series, while the new 75 Sport Yacht, an upgrade of the former 74, represents the sportbridge series.
The 90 Ocean will represent the new Ocean line of wide-beam, high-volume yachts, while the Yacht series of large flybridge motor yachts will include the 76 Yacht, 88 Yacht and an eye-catching version of the 100 Yacht, a model that had its world premiere at last year’s Cannes Yachting Festival.
Sunseeker vows that the bespoke 100 Yacht in Midnight Grey “will be the most photographed yacht in the Mediterranean this summer” and is set to catch the eye of onlookers in Cannes with an all-grey exterior, black hardtop, glimpses of stainless steel and crystal-clear glazing.
Sean Robertson, Sales and Marketing Director at Sunseeker International, said: “The upcoming Cannes Yachting Festival will be one of the best yet. We’ve never seen so much variation in a product line-up, including two of the most highly anticipated launches from the last year. The Superhawk 55, an open yacht with a performance heart, will stand proudly next to the groundbreaking 100 Yacht.
“Joining these two exceptional yachts and having a show debut is the brand-new 75 Sport Yacht, alongside the Manhattan 55, Predator 65, Manhattan 68, 76 Yacht, 88 Yacht and 90 Ocean. Together, these yachts will all make for an exciting showcase of Sunseeker yachts.”
