Manufacturer provided description

Exemplifying Sunseeker’s latest design prowess, the Manhattan 55 has been meticulously conceived to elevate comfort and long-range cruising while gifting her owner a wealth of sociable spaces more commonly reserved for larger yachts. Her exterior language is all confidence and clarity, with expansive curved glass and finely executed stainless-steel detailing underscoring performance and poise. Specify bar stools at the aft galley and the culinary hub appears to flow onto the main deck, creating an effortless indoor–outdoor transition that turns every moment aboard into an invitation to linger. Inside, a thoughtfully arranged layout delivers remarkable flexibility, celebrating volume and light and leading the eye aft to the well-appointed bathing platform and Beach Club. Here, family and friends gather around an optional built‑in barbeque, rinse beneath the overhead shower, and relax on fold‑down transom seating that transforms the water’s edge into a private resort. Powered by Volvo Penta D13‑800 engines, the Manhattan 55 cruises comfortably at 25 knots for a range of 230 nautical miles, with exhilarating performance in excess of 30 knots at full throttle.

Features

Everyday convenience meets blue‑water capability in a specification curated to delight. A Single 50 Amp shore power inlet with a Glendenning Power Reel brings effortless dockside connection, while a robust 17kW Onan generator quietly sustains comfort and autonomy offshore. The electronics suite is pure confidence at the helm: depth and speed are handled by the Simrad B744V W/N2K transducer, with the same unit providing log‑speedometer data, while a Simrad Halo 4 Pulse Compression Radar Open Array paints a crisp picture to the horizon. Navigation is centered on dual Simrad NSS16 evo3 16‑inch displays at both upper and lower helms, with matching NSS16 evo3 repeater functionality, and guidance refined by a Simrad Autopilot. Position and traffic awareness are reinforced by the NAIS‑500 Class B AIS with GPS, complemented by Simrad RS90S VHF with DSC. Zone‑controlled audio powered by Sonos amps sets the soundtrack, Starlink Wi‑Fi keeps you connected, and the helm is completed with the essentials including a compass and dedicated cockpit speakers.

Inside, comfort is stabilized by the Seakeeper 6 Gyro, while precision close‑quarters control comes from proportional bow and stern thrusters with joystick and hold function PJC212. Daily life is effortless thanks to thoughtful domestic amenities: provision for a dishwasher and an electric bilge pump, a Splendede washing machine, Miele oven and Miele microwave oven, multizone air conditioning with additional BTU for warm climates, Techma Quiet electric heads, and reverse‑cycle Dometic heating. Cold storage is generous with four Vitrifrigo refrigerators, and ship systems are rounded out with hot water, a sea water pump, and a battery charger.

On deck, the essentials for outdoor living are all here: a teak cockpit, cockpit shower, upholstered cockpit cushions, a cockpit table for lingering meals, and a swimming ladder for easy water access. Comfort underway is further enhanced by the Seakeeper 6 gyroscopic stabilizer, and at the waterline a hydraulic bathing platform turns arrivals and departures into theatre while doubling as a private beach.

Standard features

Forward, the foredeck is carefully detailed for both relaxation and readiness. A black‑mesh windscreen cover protects the glass, while bespoke covers shield the foredeck seating, table, and sunbed. Wash down with the freshwater deck outlet, then drop the Lewmar 55‑pound Delta anchor on an all‑chain rode comprising 60 meters of 9.5 mm chain. The foredeck anchor chain access hatch integrates fender storage with a stainless tie bar, and a folding backrest at the sunpad along with an adjustable‑height teak table create a private lounge at the bow. An anchor windlass with vertical gypsy and drum makes light work of ground tackle, and low‑level LED lighting at deck completes the scene after dusk.

At the waterline, natural teak extends across cockpit and platform. A pair of retractible cleats at the port and starboard corners secure the tender, fold‑down platform seating welcomes you beside the sea, and a hand‑held shower wand refreshes after a swim. In the cockpit, natural teak underfoot sets the tone for easy entertaining. Upholstered bar stools with stainless steel pivoting bases are fitted in deck sockets beside a teak aft cockpit table with folding top on a polished stainless steel leg. An icemaker with teak door stands ready, a 12V socket powers the dinghy inflator, and stainless steel LED overhead lighting with dimmer switches preserves the mood long into the evening.

Above, the flybridge is an elevated haven. An instrument cover protects the dash, natural teak decking defines the space, and a stainless steel ensign staff and socket add a finishing touch. Engine data is crystal clear via Volvo Penta twin 2.5 inch LCD displays for the shaft engines, with Volvo Penta trip control, cruise control, and single‑lever control for effortless command. Night operations benefit from a Sanshin twin beam remote‑controlled halogen searchlight. Gather around the teak dining table with folding top on its stainless steel leg, then reach for refreshments from the Vitrofrigo IM Classic Hydro icemaker and the Vitrifrigo C75 refrigerator. A resounding AFI dual‑trumpet horn makes your presence known. Overhead, a hardtop with stainless steel supports integrates a retractable center canopy, while an electric retractable canopy shades the stern section of the hardtop.

The saloon is a study in contemporary calm and capability. Power is at hand via interior A/C 120V sockets, and climate is managed by air conditional 3 x 1600 btu. Entertainment is anchored by the Samsung 55" Smart 4K QLED “The Frame” TV with Apple TV App and Airplay 2, paired to a 4K Blu‑ray player; a Sonos Playbar ties TV and Blu‑ray together and opens the door to music streaming. Stainless steel LED interior overhead lighting with dimmer switches sets the ambience, while Cadorin Hard Wood Flooring in Silver Oak with a low‑build, open‑grain satin finish flows through the salon and main stairs to the galley. Cabinet catches in polished chrome, black‑chrome switch and socket trims, and a polished‑chrome galley mixer tap elevate every touchpoint. Dining accoutrements include a Royal Daulton Fusion white dinner set with a six‑setting service, a Robert Walsh cutlery set with six place settings, and a Darlington Crystal set comprising a six‑setting service of champagne flutes and whiskey tumblers. Cold storage comes courtesy of Vitrifrigo DW180 refrigerator drawers totalling 144 liters, complemented by a Vitrifrigo DCW95 wine cooler for 33 bottles. Cooking is a pleasure with a Miele Ceramic hob KM6520 FR (four ring), Miele Hob Extractor DA2360, Miele Integrated microwave oven HG6200BM, and a Miele Integrated Slimline Dishwasher G4580 SCVi. Additional stainless steel LED interior overhead lighting with dimmers ensures perfect illumination.

At the lower helm, tactile control pairs with full‑spectrum awareness. Black‑chrome Vimar Classic switch and socket trims frame the dash, while two Simrad NSS16 evo3 16" multifunction color chart plotters command the lower console. A Simrad performance fishfinder transducer B744V W/N2K delivers depth, speed, and temperature; communications flow through the Simrad RS90S VHF with DSC; and situational clarity is secured by the Simrad NAIS‑500 Class B AIS with GPS and a 2.4‑meter AIS VHF antenna. The Simrad Halo 4 Pulse Compression Radar Open Array (4 foot, 64nm) extends your view, and Volvo Penta twin 2.5" LCD engine displays, together with Volvo Penta Trip control, Cruise control, and Single lever control, ensure fingertip precision. Docking is transformed by the Xenta Smart‑stick system, visibility by the Sanshin Twin Beam remote‑controlled Halogen Searchlight HR‑1012, and safety by the Fireboy Xintex FR‑200 two‑zone fire alarm system: Zone one monitors the engine room with heat and smoke sensors; zone two covers accommodation on the main and lower decks, with the control panel located at the main helm. For fine maneuvering, proportional bow and stern thrusters with joystick and PJC212 hold function deliver unruffled poise.

Along the companionway, practicality is built in. A 150‑liter black water tank discharges either via a deck‑mounted fitting or to sea as required, and a grey‑water sump tank collects shower and basin water with automatic overboard discharge. Stainless steel LED interior overhead lighting with dimmer switches maintains the calm, and Cadorin Hard Wood Flooring continues across the main stairs and passage.

The master stateroom and en‑suite are refined and reassuring. Interior AC 120V sockets (USA 3‑pin) keep devices charged, while square‑style cabin door handles in polished chrome, polished‑chrome cabinet catches, and black‑chrome Vimar Classic trims deliver quiet luxury. A standard foam and quilted mattress ensures restful nights, augmented by air conditioning 1 x 16000btu DTU. Entertainment is effortless via a Samsung 55" Smart 4K UHD Television with Apple TV App and Airplay 2; a Sanos Playbar connects the TV and opens music streaming. Lighting is via stainless steel LED interior overhead units with dimmer control, and an optional starboard‑side arrangement offers a fully upholstered chaise longue with storage finished in S – Stone – Loft 692050 fabric. Security is discreet with a key lock for the cabin door and a Dometic Safe MD 281 concealed within the cabinetry (8.3 l, W280mm x H165mm x D235mm). The en‑suite features polished‑chrome taps and accessories, a Tecma 2G toilet, dedicated air‑conditioning outlet, and stainless steel LED lighting with dimmers.

Guests are indulged as well. In the VIP stateroom and its en‑suite/guest head, interior AC 120V sockets (USA 3‑pin), square‑style polished‑chrome door handles, polished‑chrome cabinet catches, and black‑chrome Vimar Classic trims mirror the master’s material palette. A standard foam and quilted mattress pairs with air conditioning 1 x 10,000btu DTU for perfect repose. Entertainment arrives via a Samsung 43" Smart 4K UHD Television with Apple TV App and Airplay 2, powered by a Sonos Amp driving the built‑in B&W CCM362 speakers for music streaming. Stainless steel LED overhead lighting with dimmers sets the tone, and a key lock secures the en‑suite door to the forward cabin. The head mirrors the master with polished‑chrome taps and accessories, a Tecma 2G toilet, an air‑conditioning outlet, and refined stainless steel LED lighting on dimmers.

In the starboard guest stateroom, interior AC 120V sockets (USA 3‑pin), square‑style polished‑chrome door handles, polished‑chrome cabinet catches, and black‑chrome Vimar Classic trims continue the theme. Standard foam and quilted mattresses provide comfort, cooled by air conditioning 1 x 6000btu DTU.

Stainless steel LED overhead lighting and dimmer switches ensure the ambiance is always just right.
