The best of the yachting industry gathered at the Landmark London hotel last night, at the Motor Boat Awards 2014. Honouring the most successful models of the 2013 season, two stalwarts of the new Sunseeker range were nominated in the “best sportscruiser over 45ft” category.

The Sunseeker San Remo, tested by Motor Boats Monthly, appeared in the October edition of the magazine, winning great acclaim for her stylish looks and exceptional manoeuvrability  (watch the video of the test HERE). Also nominated for the the award was the Predator 80, the elder, more performance focused sister to the San Remo, and somewhat of a figurehead for the new Sunseeker Predator range.
