Sunseeker has begun the lamination of its first 134 Superyacht.
Lamination of Hull No.1 began at the shipyard’s dedicated superyacht facility in Osprey Quay, Dorset and marks a milestone in the yard’s history, representing involvement from hundreds of Sunseeker workers. In excess of 100 qualified boat builders will be involved in the build process itself.
In order to build the new 134, Sunseeker has invested in its 27,000sqft facilities at Osprey Quay, where the superyachts will be built.
The shipyard has invested in enhanced infrastructure, capability and workflow, creating a purpose-built environment designed to deliver the larger, more complex yachts.
Hull No.1 of the 134 Superyacht is due to come off the line for testing in April 2027 before making her way to the West Coast of the US. This will be the third Sunseeker the new owners have commissioned.
Work on Hull No.2 will be begin as soon as Hull one is de-moulded.
This is a very proud moment for our design and engineering team.

“This is a very proud moment for our design and engineering team,” said Ewen Foster, chief design officer of Sunseeker International.
“From bow to stern, the 134 Superyacht external design and internal layout have been developed with the sole intent of elevating the very nature of life at sea.
“With an iconic profile, an effortless flow between internal and external spaces and very generous volume every experience aboard will feel intuitive and beautifully resolved.
“She will be an incredibly strong statement at sea. A legacy for her owner, and for us.”
Andres Rubio, chief executive officer of Sunseeker International, added: “With new ownership, renewed investment and a long-term leadership team now in place, Sunseeker is laying the foundations for an ambitious new chapter in superyacht development.
“The Sunseeker 134 Superyacht is the first step, with a pipeline of groundbreaking new models already in development that will push the boundaries of design, performance and onboard experience.”
