The Sunseeker Manhattan 56 is the modern evolution of a 1990s legend. Sleek, spacious and unmistakably Sunseeker, the 17.21-metre yacht updates one of the brand's most iconic lines while staying true to its DNA.

Exterior

The Manhattan 56 cuts a contemporary silhouette defined by sweeping curves, stainless steel detailing and uninterrupted main deck glazing along the hull. At the stern, the aft cockpit has been reimagined as a modular social space that converts from a dining area to a full-beam sunpad.

The layout flows naturally to the bathing platform and Beach Club, optionally equipped with a built-in barbecue and overhead shower.

Interior

Inside, the Manhattan 56 trades traditional yacht interiors for an apartment-style minimalist aesthetic developed in conjunction with Design Unlimited. Panoramic hull windows flood the salon with natural light, while the open-plan layout connects the saloon, dining and helm areas in one generous flow.

Below deck, three cabins include an exceptional master suite with full-height headroom, a curved king-size bed and a fully fitted en suite. Warm natural finishes and clean contemporary lines complete the look.
