Beijing Buys Out The Very Best of British Yachting

Sunseeker is Britain's largest and most recognised yacht builder, renowned for stunning aesthetics and build quality. Based in Dorset, Sunseeker produce the iconic Predator motor yacht series, as well as the classic Manhattan line and Portofino model.

The Snapper Luxury Sunseeker Motor Yacht

For a company whose success is heavily based upon tradition, a radical change to the management and culture of the company is naturally going to face some serious opposition. This comes with the news that Dalian Wanda, the Chinese property group are set to pay around £300 million for a 92% stake in Sunseeker International.
Sunseeker's are popular because of their spacious accommodation and deck areas, making them very popular with sporting icons, such as French footballer Marcel Desailly, as well as Formula 1 veterans Eddie Jordan and Nigel Mansell. This takeover follows the growing trend for Chinese companies acquiring top end British companies, in search of bringing western luxury to the country. Mr Wang of Dalian Wanda has been a lifelong fan of the Sunseeker brand, illustrated by the acquisition of a custom built Sunseeker Predator 108, which featured in James Bond, Casino Royale.

Brand New Eddie Jordan Sunseeker Yacht

The Snapper was Eddie Jordan's first Sunseeker motor yacht. This 37m fully crewed motor yacht features accommodation for up to 10 guests in 5 cabins, as well as stunning decks throughout. However, Mr Jordan has recently commissioned Sunseeker for a larger yacht, which will blow The Snapper out of the water. The 155ft new build project will feature four decks, accommodating up to 12 guests. The Sky deck is likely to feature a Jacuzzi and a bar, which would be the perfect place to enjoy cocktails while watching the sunset.

If spending £25 million on a brand new Sunseeker motor yacht is out of your budget, try your hand as owner by chartering your very own luxury Sunseeker! We have a host of stunning Sunseeker motor yachts all over the world, but it is hard to find one that is better equipped or better placed than Natalie, a Sunseeker Predator 84, based in the Golfe of St Tropez.

Our second choice for your day charter is DELHIA, a Mangusta 92, accommodating for up to 11 guests for day charters along the French Riviera. Charter Brokers Ben and Adam recently saw her and were both amazed by her crew and the food prepared on board. Ben said, about the food, “the preparation on DELHIA was second to none, I would highly recommend trying the chicken in soy and honey sauce!” She has a large open interior, and our favourite space on board was on the aft deck, DELHIA is available at a daily rate of €8,125 plus expenses.

Our third and final option is a new yacht to the charter market. The Sessa C48, a slightly smaller option, offers guests an extremely luxurious day out on board. The Captain is absolutely fantastic, and he will make sure that you have an extremely special day out, whether you're planning a day to Monaco, Saint Tropez, or just a trip to the stunning Iles de Lerins.
