Pursuit of enjoyment.

From the helm-operated retractable glass and carbon fiber sunroof to the single-piece glass forward windshield and spectacular interior layout, the Sunseeker Predator 55 presents an uncompromising balance of state-of-the-art boat building with upscale features meant to enhance any cruising needs.

“The Sunseeker Predator 55 delivers the perfect blend of luxury and performance,” says Ron Silvia, partner & VP of sales at Jefferson Beach Yacht Sales, the exclusive Great Lakes Sunseeker dealer.

Her exterior — featuring a contemporary profile, distinctive windows, and classy black and white paint — is a striking welcome to come aboard. Starting with the aft cockpit, seating can be shifted to accommodate six at the fixed dining table with an electrically operated sunshade that offers sun protection.

The single-level main deck, L-shape galley, salon and wetbar take full advantage of the 16-foot, 2-inch beam, providing comfortable seating and entertaining space, all surrounded by expansive windows and that sunroof above. And with the sliding glass patio door open, the interior and exterior blend seamlessly. Twin bolstered seats forward and to starboard allow driver and guest to enjoy the helm while powering up the twin 750-hp Volvo Penta IPS-950 inboard diesel engines and enjoying the view at a top speed of 36 knots.

The full-beam owner’s quarters and the standard arrangement of a forward VIP stateroom in the forepeak are both ensuites. As found throughout the living accommodations, there is enhanced headroom in both these staterooms. A comfortable twin berth stateroom is to starboard, and storage space is abundant, including wardrobes, drawer space and an ensuite utility room with washer/dryer combo unit. As one would expect from this prominent builder, Sunseeker has provided a modified layout to fit an individual owner’s needs.

“This yacht is designed for those who crave power, precision and style on the water,” Silvia adds.
