131 Motor Yacht
The Sunseeker Manhattan 68 is a 69-foot luxury motor yacht with a flybridge that was launched by UK boat-building firm Sunseeker in 2020. One of the latest models in the award-winning Manhattan line, this yacht stays true to its name by providing guests will the sort of open space and contemporary style normally found in an Upper East Side condo. Ample living space is matched by a sharp exterior with twin arrowhead hull windows, an expansive flybridge, competitive open water top speeds and a beach club with a toy locker to make this the perfect family motor yacht.

The Manhattan 68’s teak-lined flybridge is partially covered by a fiberglass hard-top with a retractable sunroof for protection from rain and shine, and features room to the rear for a sun-lounge or even a jacuzzi. You will also find a wet-bar console with an icemaker and a Kenyon grill up here, across from a port-side seating area comprised of an L-shaped side sofa next to a forward double sunpad. The upper helm is enclosed by tinted Venturi windscreens that trace the front and sides of the bridge and boasts a pair of leather piloting chairs sitting across from a dashboard with Simrad evo35 touch screens, power-steering, thruster controls, a Xenta joystick and VHF radio.
On the main deck there is an afternoon retreat on the foredeck with a marina-facing sunpad and a Portuguese Bridge-style sofa next to an occasional table, while in the aft-cockpit there is a transom sofa hugging a teak-lined extending table. Side steps at the rear lead down to a full-beam hydraulic swimming platform from where you can access the transom beach club. There is a folding bench, a shower head, a sea-level locker with charging points for a pair of bobs and storage for snorkeling equipment, fenders or fishing lines, while the platform itself can be used to host a water tender.
Sunseeker interiors in recent years have tended towards the ultra-modern and minimalist, and the Manhattan 68 proves no exception, whether you go with the classic layout or choose an optional upgrade from stylists Design Unlimited. Triple sliding glass doors to the rear lead you toward a space with pale oak floors large enough to host an L-shaped leather sofa and a dining table to port, with an open galley to starboard with Miele appliances such as an American-style, full-height fridge-freezer, a convection oven and a four-zone hob. Further forward there is an upholstered U-shaped lounge sofa, a forward lounge and a pair of helm chairs at the lower helm station, all generously lit thanks to wrap-around side windows.
On the lower deck there is room for up to 8 overnight guests across an en-suite double stateroom to bow, an en-suite twin, a further twin bedroom and, of course, the en-suite full-beam owner’s stateroom. In the owner’s suite you will find a king-sized island bed, bedside cabinets, a double-length chaise-longue, a large closet and a spacious bathroom, with plush paneling and accents in wengewood and stainless steel.
No mere floating palace, the Sunseeker Manhattan 68 can reach top speeds of up to 32 knots, and cruising speeds of 26 knots, thanks to a pair of Volvo Penta IPS 1350 or MAN V8 1200 engines. And with 4,000 liters of diesel in the tank you will benefit from a range of 550 nautical miles at the sedate pace of 10 knots.
