On Deck

The yacht's garage feature is highlighted, where a tender can be stored, and features an awning that extends from the back, providing shade for those on the sunbathing area. There is an option of having rear-facing seating, a feature not commonly found on many boats. The yacht's spaciousness is enabled by a sideways-opening door and a window that lifts up to connect two zones seamlessly.

The foredeck area features U-shaped seating that can be transformed into a sunbathing area. Nick praises the thoughtful integration of cup holders, stereo controls, and lighting for nighttime illumination.

Interior

Inside, the Predator 50 has a well-equipped bar area, complete with a wine cooler and ice maker. He also mentions a TV that can be hidden when not in use. A 'snug' by the front, next to the helm, is another feature that Nick finds appealing, providing a cozy area for conversation while underway. A carbon fiber sliding panel overhead lets in a lot of light and can be opened for a more airy feel.

In the lower deck there is another snug area and a guest cabin with versatile sleeping arrangements. The master cabin is where the Sunseeker quality truly shines through with its top-notch finish and ample storage. He further appreciates the ensuite bathrooms, one of which features a rainfall shower.

Performance

In the engine space, there are Volvo Penta D8-600 engines, explaining that this yacht uses a shaft drive instead of the more typical IPS pod drive.  

In Summary

In conclusion, Nick expresses his admiration for the Sunseeker Predator 50, noting its compact size does not detract from the quality and finish typical of a Sunseeker yacht.
