Sunseeker Predator 60 EVO, Sporty and Elegant

Sunseeker Predator 60 EVO

EVO. EVOlution. For the new Predator 60 EVO, Sunseeker, the British shipyard that has Andrea Frabetti as Chief Executive Officer, aims high. EVO also indicates a new phase in the history of the shipyard engaged in an important industrial development plan. But there’s more. The Predator 60 EVO, in fact, is the result of new exterior and interior design which nevertheless retains the signs that have always distinguished the Sunseeker yachts.

At first glance, the Predator 60 EVO shows how the Sunseeker Design & Technology Center has succeeded, in respect of the family feeling, in giving concrete expression to the EVO concept. Thus, the side profile is marked by the deckhouse, slender in design and transparencies that, together with the openable hardtop, creates a sheltered internal environment, in direct contact with the sea. Even the windows on the sides of the hull make the silhouette of the yacht lighter, enhancing the sporty character of the Predator 60 EVO.

Even the construction of the new Sunseeker expresses research and modernity through, for example, the hardtop and the garage hatch (a small crew cabin can be accommodated here), in carbon fiber. They are part of a refined construction that has managed to contain the overall displacement of the Predator 60 EVO – 18.24 meters long and 4.70 meters wide – within just 27.9 tons while offering a lot of od space inside. In the foredeck, a sun pad can accommodate three people while the pilot station is comfortable and safe thanks to the presence of a handrail that surrounds the entire decking, from the cockpit to the bow. A sign of attention to safety on board, obviously combined with maximum comfort.

Starting from the cockpit with a full-width sundeck connected to the dinette with a C-shaped sofa facing the bar with grill. A space on the sea that can be expanded. When the door leading to the indoor living room, the deckhouse, and the wide transparent hardtop section are open and the dividing glass is lowered, passengers can enjoy a unique open-air space.
