Sunseeker Manhattan 56 from 2002 – Flybridge Motor Yacht with Spacious Layout
General Overview of the Ship
The Sunseeker Manhattan 56 is a flybridge motor yacht built in 2002 by the renowned shipyard Sunseeker. This model is known for its spacious layout, distinctive lines, and functional sailing characteristics. With a length of 17.90 meters and a width of 4.59 meters, the ship offers ample living space on board for extended stays on the water. The hull is made of composite material, contributing to a relatively low weight and a good balance between strength and maintenance needs.
The yacht features a dual rudder configuration and is equipped with an electric bow thruster system, which facilitates maneuverability in harbors and when docking. The draft is 2.85 meters, making the ship suitable for use on open seas. The Sunseeker Manhattan 56 is registered under the Croatian flag, and VAT has not been paid.
Engine and Technical Specifications
On board are two MAN Marine D2848LE403 diesel engines, each with eight cylinders and an electric start system. Both engines are from the year 2001 and have approximately 1400 operating hours each. The engines are operational and provide powerful propulsion, suitable for both short trips and longer journeys. The electrical systems on board operate on 12V, 24V, and 220V, ensuring a wide range of equipment and facilities can be used.
The yacht is equipped with an electric anchor winch with chain attachment and a hydraulic swim platform at the rear of the ship. This platform is designed to provide easy access to the water and can also be used for launching a tender. However, no tender is included with this ship.
Interior and Accommodation
The interior of the Sunseeker Manhattan 56 is designed with comfort and functionality in mind. There are six fixed berths distributed across multiple cabins. The accommodation is equipped with air conditioning, which can also serve as heating. Additionally, there are amenities such as a shower, vacuum toilet, dining area, refrigerator, stove, microwave, mattresses, and hot water supply.
The interior upholstery shows signs of wear or detachment in some areas. Additionally, there is an electrically operated window on the port side that is currently not functioning. The instrument panel on the flybridge shows signs of use, and the navigation system is outdated and defective. These elements may require attention from a future owner.
Exterior Equipment and Deck Equipment
The exterior of the ship features a teak deck, bimini, exterior deck sails, outdoor cushions, a swim ladder, and a spacious swim platform. This equipment contributes to comfort on deck, both while sailing and when anchored. The flybridge is spaciously designed and offers a good overview while sailing. The helm on the flybridge is functional but shows signs of aging.
Maintenance and Technical Condition
The last time the ship was taken out of the water for maintenance was in 2024. In the same year, an antifouling treatment was also carried out. The generator on board is currently not operational and requires an overhaul. The safety equipment includes a life raft, for which the inspection date has expired. There is an electric bilge pump available for water drainage in the engine room or other compartments.
Usage and Sailing Area
The Sunseeker Manhattan 56 has been used for recreational sailing on seas. The combination of powerful engines, a spacious flybridge, and a functional layout makes the ship suitable for both day trips and multi-day journeys. The documentation available with the ship concerns a registration of creation.
Conclusion
The Sunseeker Manhattan 56 from 2002 offers a spacious and functional platform for enthusiasts of flybridge motor yachts. With its length of nearly 18 meters, dual engines, and extensive equipment, the ship is designed for comfortable living and ease of sailing on open water. Although there are some technical and cosmetic points of attention, the ship provides a solid foundation for further personalization or modernization.
