Dave Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 Christ!!.. takes 29,000 litres of fuel.. would cost around £25,000 to fill her up And that will only take you 1,500 miles. stone the crows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ari Posted December 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 It is a bit "challenging" looking isn't it? Blimmin shame, Sunseeker used to make some of the most beautiful boats on the water back in the late '80s early '90s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garcon magnifique Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 Would probably look better without that black hull. But not the most elegant yacht in the world. Talking of superyacht's, anyone seen/know who owns Bjorg III? Moored up in St Katherine's Dock a couple of weeks ago. Veeeeeeery nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnnyopolis Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 I worked it out to cost £17 a mile in fuel to run.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarmac_Terrorist Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 Looks a bit like my Bosch steam iron. A right awkward looking barge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woppum Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 There is certainly a market for quick off the shelf Yachts of this size. I think it will probably do very well. There is an awful lot of worldly money about at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] Very true, we cant build them quick enough (I work for them) These pictures dont do it justice to be honest, it looks a lot better in the flesh and the interior is out of this world .

Ari Posted December 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 I've always been impressed with Sunseeker interiors, they are suberb, but I hope you're right about looking better in the flash. I'll know in about a fortnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cupramax Posted December 25, 2006 Report Share Posted December 25, 2006 There's a tad more engineering goes into it than your average sunroof... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian_C Posted December 28, 2006 Report Share Posted December 28, 2006 Was not questioning that - just me trying to [poorly] say that 400k is a bargain for a Predator 58 compared to list. Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil330 Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 I noticed that this yacht at Excel had 'The Snapper' on the back, which was on Eddie Jordans 105, this must be his then? I wonder how much discount he gets for letting it go to the show . I went on his old 105 at the last show, and that was nice, although not fitted out to my taste, he was still able to market if for charter at 65000euro's a week!!

Tizzy Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 Saw this at Excel yesterday - went aboard too - not really to my taste internally, but the brown hull didn't look as bad in reality as I thought it might. One big gin-palace though, absolutely dwarfed all the other boats - made the Princess 44 near to it look like a tender! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
