Sunseeker Predator 115 Review (2013 Edition) by Aquaholic

Interior

Inside, the decor has been lightened with the American oak flooring replacing the original dark wenge and the replacement of oak panels with an upholstered finish to lift the ambiance. In the saloon, two side balconies with hydraulic openings are a wonderful feature, enhancing the indoor space with fresh air and views when anchored.

In the lounge area, a hidden TV rises for viewing in the comfortable seating area.  Behind the lounge, there is a dining area with feature artwork and plenty of storage solutions for cutlery and crockery.

In the main deck owner's cabin, Nick notes the new curtains, carpet, and contemporary vibe maintained despite the yacht's age. He is pleased with the cabin's large wardrobe and en-suite, which features a big shower instead of a bath, based on owner preference.

The lower deck accommodations feature two VIP cabins, one double and one twin. The cabins have a unique V-shaped configuration which differs from the typical flat bulkhead layout. The interiors have all been refreshed with various finishes and sizeable en-suite bathrooms. 

The bridge features an array of controls, communication equipment, and controls for the hydraulic fin stabilizers.

Stairs lead straight up from the bridge to the spacious flybridge.  There is an additional twin-seat helm position with expansive views. The flybridge has large entertaining spaces, including a bar, sunbathing, a dining area for twelve guests, and a sizeable hot tub with matched upholstery, all covered by a huge sliding roof.

Wide side decks lead to the foredeck. On the bow, Nick enjoys the lounging and sunbathing areas, including mounts for parasols/awnings, considering this an ideal place for enjoying coastal views while cruising. 

At the stern, there is a bathing platform and a large tender garage, capable of housing a tender over six meters in length. Steps lead up to a spacious cockpit area.

The crew area is well-appointed with a large galley with professional appliances and laundry. Stairs lead down to a comfortable mess area, and crew berths. There are three cabins, one single cabin and two cabins with bunkbeds, sleeping up to 5 crew.

In the engineering space, the yacht houses upgraded generators, watermakers and a pair of MTU 16V 200 M94 engines that give the yacht a top speed of 26 knots and a range of over 1,000 nautical miles while cruising at 20 knots. Nick also mentions the Atlas system for voltage and frequency conversion, allowing the yacht to adapt to different shore power systems worldwide. 

Closing the tour, Nick reiterates his admiration for the recently refitted yacht. Nick admires the refit improvements which have made it modern and fresh, highlighting the new upholstery with Bentley-style stitching and the refinished teak decking.
