The legendary British manufacturer of luxury yachts Sunseeker International is one of the market leaders for building motor yachts and boats with superior seaworthiness coupled with impeccable stylish design of interior space. The company, founded by Robert Braithwaite, to become an icon of British shipbuilding, was established in 1968 in the town of Poole, and was originally called “Poole Powerboats”. The first yacht with the name Sunseeker was built in the mid-70s, and the company name changed in the early 1980s. The main office and shipyard are now located in Poole (Dorset, UK).
In 2001 Sunseeker opened its new Technology Center. This was considered a big step for the company as it enabled interior designers to work alongside the engineering and sales teams. Most importantly, the new Technology Center enabled engineers to use new manufacturing capabilities.
Today Sunseeker produces 22 models of modern boats with lengths from 10 to 47 m.
Sunseeker boats took part in the world-known pictures of Agent 007. Quantum of Solace used Sunseeker Superhawk 43. Five other models of Sunseeker were involved in the previous Bond films: for filming “Casino” Royal ” (2006) – 108 Predator, XS 2000 and Sportsfish 37; in “Die Another Day”.
