Sunseeker International, a British luxury yacht manufacturer, will launch its eagerly anticipated 131 Yacht at the London Boat Show, to be held in January.

At 131 feet (40 metres), it will be the largest model to make its debut in London, and will appear alongside a stunning collection of other Sunseeker models ranging from 50 feet upwards.

The London Boat Show will run from January 8 to 17 at ExCeL.

The groundbreaking new 131 Yacht takes Sunseeker’s superyacht capabilities to new levels and, is the first of three large models set for launch in early 2016.

Demand for the 131 Yacht is already extremely high with the first five already sold. Exclusive pictures released earlier this year revealed the sumptuous quality and attention to detail that have gone into this innovative new take on Sunseeker’s proven superyacht platform.

A standout feature is the addition of feature glass in the Master Stateroom, Saloon and Upper Saloon to create a light filled relaxed, comfortable and enjoyable environment for owner and guests.

The 131 Yacht enables its owners to tailor every element of the interior design and layout to their personal preferences via Sunseeker’s unique ‘Bespoke’ service. Standard guest configuration is for 10 guests in five cabins, with scope for up to 12 to be accommodated depending on the layout and options selected. A spacious garage can accommodate a tender of up to 6.0 m in length plus two PWCs.

Based on the classic Sunseeker deep V hull, this large tri-deck yacht is equally comfortable operating at 10 knots for an extended cruising range of 1,500 nautical miles or at 23 knots for ultimate performance. Build time for each new 131 Yacht is around one year, with capacity in place to have up to five yachts in build simultaneously.

Sean Robertson, sales director at Sunseeker International, said: "The London Boat Show is always extremely exciting and draws a truly international selection of clients. I am delighted we are launching this special new yacht, the first – and largest – of four new Sunseeker models set to debut in 2016.

“The 131 Yacht really builds on the success of our proven superyacht platform, adding more technical innovation, more advanced features and contemporary layouts that can be tailored in every way to meet the needs of our most discerning customers.”
