Few brands can confidently claim to rank amongst the world’s finest. Sunseeker is one of them. A brand with enormous global strength, part of its success lies in the commitment to constantly set new standards and benchmarks. A belief in the power of innovation, in the tireless pursuit of excellence, means never settling for second best.
It’s this spirit of excellence that has driven Sunseeker to its pre-eminent position in the marine market – a spirit of adventure that has its roots in the decades of economic and technological revival that followed the Second World War. Since then, the range has expanded, with each new addition adding something rather special to a highly competitive market.
Design
Through computer aided design to manufacture (CAD/CAM), lines on screen and paper become reality via high technology and advanced engineering. CAD allows designers and naval architects to juggle at will with sheer lines and flybridge profiles, configure spaces until the ergonomics are right, play with the quality of light, and even experiment with the texture of the soft furnishings.
The construction of a Sunseeker may well start with hi-tech vacuum infusion moulding, whereby resin is injected in precisely controlled conditions, but it will invariably finish with classic cabinetmaking and polishing techniques.
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) allows the designers to experiment with variations of hull shape, length, beam and deadrise angle before a single mold is made or five-axis milling machine programmed. They can then assess sea-keeping, fuel economy, and ride quality, try different drive systems and powering options many months before construction begins.
The design stage is crucial, leaving nothing to chance. Keeping weight to design parameters ensures every Sunseeker performs as predicted, taking heavy seas in its stride and without intrusive vibration. Noise attenuation has long been a goal at Sunseeker. Every generation is quieter and smoother than the last, and the search for ever-better efficiency is ongoing.
