The crew area and the engine room were certainly an after thought

[@davidodonovan1699]

10 47 I LOVE how beautiful that outside helm station looks.

[@rone7104]

LOL, everyone complaining about the engine room space, as an owner you'll never be in their exept to inspect it! And by inspect I mean stick your head in the door and make sure it's not dirty.

[@lottaaction8072]

Wow. This boat really has it all. The space, the detailing, design-just need to start a go fund me page for my $9 million super yacht!

[@theislandsc]

90 feet and that’s the best they could do for engine room space?

[@EpicSlug]

It's not actually 90 feet.

I like the direction sunseeker is going. Amazing yacht

Bless you Hugo - your videos so often have issues of one kind or another; sound, ghosting, key areas missed etc but in an odd way it's endearing like my grandmother as you are 'doing your best'. 😆 Love the vids and the mag - keep up the great(ish) work 👍

[@adamcotterill3511]

Much classier interior from Sunseeker. For me it would have been an easy choice of Princess over Sunseeker simply down to the interiors, but this boat has complicated my fantasy decision 👌😀

[@peterheinrichs7634]

It's a close match between these two brands, indeed!

Nice layout all around. Sunseeker has always had very nice yachts. This 90' is top shelf. ☘️🇺🇸

[@andrewpark6223]

Great boat overall and i do love the Sunseeker brand. It has to be said though, that has to be one of the messiest engine rooms ive ever seen. It looks like an after thought. Utterly bizzare.

[@alimitchell5346]

Engine space a nightmare....

[@gglen2141]

What a stunning boat. To the engine room complainers: Engine rooms are engine rooms, they are not designed for ballroom dancing. You need enough space for machinery, and a dude to clamber in there if it needs work. A dude who does not suffer from claustrophobia.....

[@JimmyTRUELOVE]

Nice one Hugo

[@ianscott3180]

As a sailor, I guess this boat is not designed to ever see proper weather? Free standing furnature everywhere, swivel helm seating? I guess a quick jaunt from Cannes to Nice would be nice. Thmbs up for the video all the same.

[@randychase305]

Everyone talking about the lack of engine room space, two minutes in and you knew something was getting cut down big-time with that oversized swim platform.

[@robertfrost1683]

Beautiful, but they scrunched up the engine space too much. You are being generous with the term busy. I wonder about fire issues because of ventilation ? Great work on you and your teams part in getting this video edited and uploaded. You are gonna get ahead of the other yacht you tubers.

[@justthink5854]

wonderful tour and narration. i missed the washer dryer. plenty of details in the décor, yet at the same time light and airy.

[@darthkek1953]

Almost certainly in the cabinetry in the crew area.

[@hughmitchell3278]

It's definitely in the crew area - the Aquaholic tour includes it. I think you could also have a washer/dryer where the A/V cupboard is near the owner's cabin if you wanted too.

[@michaelschneider3446]

Nice yacht. But why are the guest beds facing into the cabin rather looking out of the huge wondows?

[@jkennett9104]

Does it have a water maker ?

[@brenley6799]

What are the ceiling heights on each deck?

[@TOM-C.]

FYI, Cruising range is 1800 miles at 12 knots, haven't seen what she'll do at 10 or 8 knots? 👍✌

[@TChalla007]

Great point

[@crazyirish__2171]

Now, that’s a beautiful yacht!

[@eyesofisabelofficial]

I was exhausted just watching you struggle around the confines of that engine room, and you've seen plenty of more spacious ones in your time. But my main concern was the gap in the safety rail when the sunpad was in the raised position, certainly large enough for a child to fall through whilst on the sunpad with mum or dad. Why did they not use the second folded section to close that gap ?

[@markszulc1182]

I agree with the concern about the safety rail, but my first thought was you're blocking my view of the ocean.

[@peterheinrichs7634]

Both of you found some big points! :D But, blocking the view isn't as bad as it seems at first... There's still the option to sit at the beach club, looking backwards.

[@Speedbird2037]

How long does it take for Sunseeker to build a boat like this one? 6 months? 12 months? if i was spending 10 Million Pounds on a boat of this size i would want it in time for maybe Christmas or Easter if i placed an order now?

[@wayneschwabe3349]

Thank you for the video its a nice looking yacht but lost me with the engine room as I saw in comments, where if any are the washer and dryer, captain quarters and fridge and freezer. Hard to make it a nice charter boat without those or a nice Liveaboard. I'm curious on the distance at 8 or 29 knots

[@hugoandreae3495]

2,050nm at 10knots at 57lph and around 440nm at 27 knots at approx 700lph

[@darthkek1953]

Laundry will be in the Crew area, 100% certain on that. The Captain will be in one of the bunk rooms. This is a yacht not a superyacht. Charter yachts and "small" crewed private yachts do not have mansions for captains.

[@jdstan9650]

Beautiful, but 4 cabins? ...on a beamy 90' Yacht?

[@marksaunders4149]

Shocking engine room

[@rtbinc2273]

Hi Hugo - Lovely yacht, but the engine room does seem very cramped. I went back and looked at Aquaholic tours of Princesses and Sunseekers of this range and they all had very similar engine room layouts that seems much more "GetAtAble" than this one. Would the change in design have made that much difference?

[@ronen160]

Agreed but the ones Nick toured did not have such a massive rear deck

[@ukpm]

Is there any part of the boat he didn't touch and paw over 🤔

[@nickwebb9290]

Great tour, fantastic motor yacht, many thanks 👍

[@nicbennett6554]

Amazing amount of space and high quality finishes throughout, right up until you reached the engine room, which was a mess! I’d love to be able to afford one, and a crew too make sure I never had to go into the engineering space 😬

[@Toby_the_Glen]

Agree, engine room is a mess!

[@matthewmiddleton2141]

She’s a lovely boat but I think my favourite still has to be the new 88 yacht.

[@MikeiLike]

Why didn't you use a wide lens?

[@hugoandreae3495]

I’m not a fan of the distortion you get on wide angle

[@sc0or]

Was a captain cabin there? If no, they will not like to work on such yacht

[@jasonreeve3040]

Lovely boat in many ways, but I can't help feeling that Sunseeker are just catching up with the Italian brands rather than forging ahead; some new boats from Mangusta, Azimut, etc, this year will be pushing further ahead. I'd love to buy British, but where are the next generation environmentally friendly engine options from UK companies? - it's a huge growth area that Sunseeker and Princess need to invest in and get ahead of the competition.

[@dospalmascb]

Where’s the captains cabin?

[@hugoagnehall9777]

Why is it called "Ocean" - when it cant even cross one? Needs a range of 5000 KM or 3500 Miles right?

[@darthkek1953]

Screams "Med Charter" to me. You'd also have to be a bit bonkers to pay VAT on it. Lots of options, from Malta to Cayman, to flag it.

[@paulfrost4678]

Depends on how long you are planning on having it . Paying the VAT now will get you a bigger sell on fee

[@darthkek1953]

@@paulfrost4678 a $5m yacht will cost $1m in VAT, the sorts of guys with this money can invest that $1m to give a bigger return than a potential increased sell-on.

[@constantineding8700]

Oh, that's a very cramped engine room. Maybe that's because it has to give more space to the gorgeous aft recreational area. Good for the owner and bad for the technician.

[@mrboaty7162]

Nice boat / yacht but that engine room ! Jeez for a 90’ it’s tiny , wouldn’t want to the captain / engineer on that boat , you’d be cut to ribbons trying to fix anything in a bad seaway .

[@superyachtchef]

Unfortunately, nothing in the SK range has that wow factor 😕

[@scottbloomer8696]

27 minutes and I have to look up the stats. Did an excellent job talking about the walls, and windows. This yacht won't last, too much beach club, not enough engine room.

[@MotorBoatYachting]

Hi Scott, thanks for watching right to the end! Btw, we always put all the key stats in the description ;-)

[@DanFrederiksen]

It's an interesting size and config, many good qualities but particular the boxes built on the windows in the cabin encroach on the room and gives an imprisoning sensation, especially with the blinds. Without being impolite I'd like to emphasize how vital that is to redesign immediately. Keeping the passenger from enjoying the view is at odds with obvious values of yachts. I'm not yet in the market for this price range of boat but at any price level, that design alone would be a deal breaker. The sensation from the cabin windows is all important, both size and unfettered. The cabin windows on the this boat could stand to be a fair bit larger but that added frame weighs it down tremendously. You may also want to avoid the brown beige palette but I assume that's an option. The round porthole inserts with thick bezel is another significant obstruction to the view. Why not let the full window open in for instance the bathrooms where the window is already fairly small. That way it can serve as escape hatch and reduce a claustrophobic sense. Particularly in the crew quarters the porthole filling almost the entire window is an obvious invitation to rethink a few things. I like the open galley layout, I would even pursue open to the bridge and to that end maybe consider if a captain needs such a wide room to pilot the ship or if that could be much smaller. Blocking off the entire front of the main deck is quite the sacrifice if it could be done another way. A door forward to the foredeck I think would further enhance the open living sensation. Galleon has that in one model and it seems like an obvious barrier to break. Could even do away with the side decks entirely.

[@CarstenDittrich2014]

Awesome - until the engine room... that's really a shame...

[@APTW42]

Where does the captain sleep? In one of the bunks? Beautiful boat, not great crew facilities at all, seems like they’re trying to cram too much in. Great quality video as always, thank you.

[@darthkek1953]

Yes, one of the bunks. He gets more space than some charter yachts.

[@katprowler6805]

No crew would work in that engine room. You better be a 4 ft 8' Olympic gymnast to work in there for 5 mins! And the 'garage' door is really stupid.

Overpriced would prefer garage to hold a tender and jet skis, hidden out of view. Not a practical looking boat and big areas to fill.

[@wings9925]

Lovely boat, although it lacks some of the finesse of Princess, to my eye. May I comment on the presentation? When delivering to camera, keeping a consistent flow and pacing is important, especially in the narration. When you pause and hesitate mid sentence it rather distracts from your message and the visuals
