Sunseeker Manhattan 68

With the occasion of the first boat show of the year, major shipyards unveil new models for this 2025. Among them, Sunseeker, a famous British shipyard, will bring to Düsseldorf, Jan. 18-26, the updated version of the Manhattan 68, a 21.20-meter flybridge.

Sunseeker Manhattan 68

One only has to look at it to recognize it as a Sunseeker: soft broken lines intertwine on the sides and superstructure, where the play of colors in the contrasting windows draws complex patterns that are never banal. The new silhouette starts at the extreme bow, where, on the deckhouse, there is a sundeck and a C-shaped settee facing forward, forming a terrace overlooking the sea with no visual barrier other than the slender stainless steel handrail, which pushes the dynamism of the lines even further. In the stern, however, the cockpit is entirely covered by the large flybridge, the cornerstone element of this boat, where there is room for a sundeck, wet bar, L-shaped sofa and two large chaise longues. In turn, the flybridge is sheltered by an opening hard top, making this deck an integral part of life on board in all conditions.

Another area to which Sunseeker always devotes great attention is the aft beach club, a transitional element between boat and sea. You cannot miss the hydraulic platform, which can also be used for hauling the tender, and a locker set up to hold all the accessories for fun on the water, such as SeaBobs, tanks and Sups.

Interiors

The main salon, where there is a living area and galley with dinette, is fully glazed for a 360-degree sea view. It connects to the cockpit via sliding doors, creating a seamless open space between interior and exterior. Below deck, it can be fitted out with three or four cabins and three bathrooms. In the standard version, the owner’s cabin, acenter of the boat, uses the full width of 5.26 m, and has a separate access staircase to ensure maximum privacy in case of guests, who can stay in the forward cabin and two double cabins.

Manhattan Pacific

Sunseeker has also thought of a special version, called Manhattan 68 Pacific, for the owner who wants to reserve maximum space for long cruises. The salon has a double U-shaped sofa that sacrifices the private access staircase to offer an even larger and more customizable master cabin, with a private lounge and bar, or that can be set up as a study

Both versions can be motorized with a maximum power output of 2,400 hp allowing a maximum speed of as much as 32 knots.
