Andrea Frabetti, CEO at Sunseeker International, said: "We are really looking forward to boot Düsseldorf where we will have 10 of our fantastic yachts on display. We are delighted to introduce our new Predator 65 - it's an incredibly dynamic yacht and will set the scene for the year ahead, when we have further outstanding global debuts planned.

"The response to our Famous Five models has been simply phenomenal and we are confident 2022 will be an even stronger year for Sunseeker as we launch even more new models including the Superhawk 55 and 100 Yacht. We are on target to double our range which will deliver 22 of the most up to date and innovative models ever seen under a single brand. The innovation we are bringing to every model is beyond compare, a fact that has not gone unnoticed by prospective owners seeking the very best in style, luxury and performance."

Predator 65 - Global Premiere

The all-new Predator 65 benefits from the latest Volvo Penta IPS-1200 or IPS-1350 offering enhanced performance, comfort, efficiency, and manoeuvrability. Complete with joystick control and 35-knot capability, she will provide an exhilarating, one-of-a-kind driving experience in well-appointed surroundings.

The dramatic exterior is a striking blend of tinted glazing, teak, carbon fibre and polished stainless steel, perfectly balancing traditional Sunseeker design concepts with cutting-edge material innovation to create a dynamic performance model.

In a standard arrangement, the aft cockpit comprises of comfortable seating backing onto a large sunpad over the garage and a social bar unit with matching stools on the port side. Owners can opt for a fully integrated wet bar or extended J-shaped lounge seating running aft from the galley across the width of the cockpit if desired. This new model benefits from an optional crew cabin, accessed via a dedicated stairwell in the aft cockpit.

Below deck, the three-cabin layout provides accommodation for up to six guests. A spacious, full-beam master stateroom features a generous en-suite, while the thoughtfully designed forward VIP cabin provides an equally comfortable haven for guests. Each guest cabin has an en suite, and there is a separate day-head below.

An extra-wide tender garage allows a Williams 345 jet tender to be carried and launched via a new diagonal sliding hydraulic bathing platform. The additional garage space can store SeaBobs, inflatable paddleboards, diving equipment or racking. If specified as a Beach Club, the fully-flush floor lends itself to free-standing furniture with a rain shower, lighting and speakers built into the overhead garage door.

65 Sport Yacht

The Sunseeker 65 Sport Yacht is fundamentally different from the current Sunseeker range in the 60ft segment due to its sculptured exterior design, innovative helm concept and stylish interior appointments. Her sleek exterior profile, with an almost invisible minimalist bridge deck, has been enhanced by the addition of rakish hull glazing, emphasising her modern sporting prowess whilst increasing natural light into the lower deck spaces. The dramatic exterior is a striking blend of tinted glazing, teak, carbon fibre and polished stainless steel, perfectly balancing traditional Sunseeker design concepts with cutting-edge material innovation to create a dynamic performance model.

Central to this yacht's appeal, owners can specify a revolutionary and exceptionally innovative 'SkyHelm™'. Featuring twin bolstered seats set very low on either side of a central console, the instrumentation is courtesy of a state-of-the-art glass bridge plotter complete with retro chrome dials housing LED displays. This design sets off a very modern fully-carbon steering arm that the driver can raise to ease ingress into this racing-cockpit design or locked in a raised position for helming while standing. Altogether, the experience is one of pure adrenaline, akin to driving a high-performance convertible supercar.

Owners can tailor the layout below decks, with the option to have an Owner's office linked to the master stateroom, single berth, lower deck galley or saloon. This level of customisation offers flexibility to suit the exact requirements of any owner.

Owners can also opt for fixed stools to turn this into a lively bar area. The teak foredeck features another private, social space with a Portuguese bridge, ready for owner and guests to enjoy the ultimate yachting experience in secluded bliss.
