Another excellent review. You have an excellent formula for reviews that i absolutely love to watch. Drone footage, each space segmented, etc. And Jack is an excellent host. Just the right amount of detail, clearly explained. This is a beautiful boat! I love skippering so much, I just wouldn’t buy it because I don’t want the hassle of arranging for a crew. So many beautiful touches. Sunseeker does so well. I wouldn’t buy it strictly due to size, maybe when my kids are teens and can help out crewing. Glad to hear that Sunseeker didn’t skip the fun to drive part!

Nice boat, well laid out. I like the fact that you give the price plus option prices. A lot of these boat reviews seem to use the same theory Rolls Royce used to use with their cars. ‘If you have to ask, you can’t afford it’.

Great interior design very calm colors not so sure about the forward galley great because of the working space but no good if you want to travel at night and also very very hot here in the med would certainly need extra A/c upgrades in the area, funny there’s a tv in the crew area when do crew ever have time to sit and watch tv😂😂😂

I do like this yacht, however, I don't like the Galley so far upfront, I'm sure also, with lights on at night, its not good for the night vision during a night passage. for this size, I much prefer the Princess MY85. Sunseeker do a great 131 which is actually my favorite boat, though some more customisable brands are getting close. Great tour and very informative, we've been through all the cupboards etc with Nick already lol so good you missed a lot of that.

@matthewmartin1970Ай бұрын
Reading everyone's comments I must be alone in not liking it. It's stuck in a middle ground of not quite being stylish enough like the Italian designed yachts but neither is it traditionally British and it has no identity of its own. The helms are a mess which is frankly unforgivable on a boat costing 7.5 million quid plus tax. Great tour as always though. Yachtbuyer are the best in the business.

Hi Jack, at 1.48 you mention if I have heard you right a trading pumps, what is that please.
@YachtbuyerАй бұрын
Hi Vernon, they're called "trailing pumps". They supply oil pressure for gearbox lubrication when the props aren't turning via the gearbox but rather by 'wind milling' in the water when the boat is being towed or running on one engine. Essentially means you can run one one engine without cooking the other gearbox, as I understand it. Hope that helps - Jack

Ive always been a princess guy but sunseekers latest ocean series are stunning ! Especially the 90 skylounge and the new 80 skylounge are just the perfect machines for family with just a skipper! The interior space and the exsterior space is unmatched in the production yacht catagory! This 88 is stunning! If i was to buy a sports series id go princess s78 but if i went for a flybridge it would be the 90 ocean 186 if thats the correct name but its with the skylounge and no lower helm! You cannot compare a flybrige with only 1 main deck! Having main deck saloon and another saloon up in the skylounge is perfection! Kids upstairs and adults on main deck! Sunseeker exstend is also a fantastic thing to have! Never thought id buy a sunseeker over princess but the ocean series from sunseeker are king! Never thought id say that! 🙏🩵

I don't like any yacht where the crew has to go into a dangerous area to get into their quarters. Can you imagine an ocean crossing in poor weather and you have to go the the stern to get to your bed? I don't like it. Not to mention the size of quarters. Nothing like sleeping in a coffin sized shared cabin.

People keep,complaining about the cost of Sunseeker, however, in 20 years, this yacht will have retained more than 85% of its value. Which means that you can use the yacht and the level of depreciation isn't as great as your level of annual ownership. These will always be in demand, amd you'll always ma,make, enough to buy an older smaller model when the kids go off to uni and it's just the 2 of you and a couple,friends
