Used Sunseeker Yachts For Sale

Sunseeker is one of the top selling yachts around the world and is UK’s premiere luxury yacht builder. It all started with a man named Robert Braithwaite in the town of Poole. Robert worked for Friar’s Cliff Marine, which would later become Poole Powerboats due to moving to Poole in 1969. Poole Powerboats was involved with delivering a variety of boat brands, including the American company Owens Cruisers. Owens Cruisers European market was not doing so well, and they decided to close the manufacturing plant in Poole. This was unfortunate for Owens Cruisers, however this turn of events became something great. Robert decided to take a risk and negotiated a deal with Owens Cruisers, eventually buying the molds from their manufacturing yard. Many friends and family members supported Robert’s entrepreneurial instincts and he gave Poole Powerboats the ability to start building instead of only distributing. They started building and targeting the sport cruiser market in the UK, which lacked thereof. In the early seventies, Robert and the team build two models, the Sovereign 17 and 20. These models were featured at the Southampton Boat Show, where one show goer liked the model so much he wanted one tailored to his needs. This was just the beginning of Sunseekers success and continued efforts to always put the customer first and foremost.
