Sunseeker will join the inaugural Swanwick Yachting Showcase, which opens on Saturday 19 September and runs until Sunday 27 September, adding one of the world's most recognisable luxury motor yacht brands to an already extensive line-up of leading power, sail and catamaran brands at the all-new appointment-led event.

Four models from across the Sunseeker range will be available to explore at Swanwick Marina: the Superhawk 55, Predator 55, Manhattan 56 and 76 Yacht.

Spanning performance-focused models through to larger luxury motor yachts, the addition further strengthens the Showcase's power offering and gives existing and prospective Sunseeker customers the opportunity to spend dedicated time onboard and speak directly with the Sunseeker team.

Sunseeker joins more than 50 new and pre-owned power and sail boats already confirmed for the Showcase, with Sanlorenzo, Bluegame, Prestige, Beneteau, Dufour, Jeanneau, Bavaria, Lagoon, Fountaine Pajot, Excess Catamarans, Greenline, Regal, Bali Catamarans and Rhéa Marine among the brands represented across sail, power and catamarans.

James Lumley, UK Sales Director, Sunseeker Europe said:

"We're delighted to be joining the inaugural Swanwick Yachting Showcase and to be part of this new appointment-led event at Swanwick Marina.

"It gives us a fantastic opportunity to spend dedicated time with existing and prospective Sunseeker customers and to talk properly about their boating plans and the opportunities available to them.

"We look forward to welcoming customers to Swanwick from 19 September."

A major addition to the Swanwick line-up

Sunseeker joins an already extensive selection of brands confirmed for the Swanwick Yachting Showcase.

The sailing line-up includes six UK debuts from Beneteau, Dufour and Jeanneau: the Beneteau First 30, Oceanis 47 and Oceanis 52, Dufour 54 and Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 415 and 455.

The power line-up spans a wide range of sizes and styles, from the 23ft Rhéa 23 Origine, making its UK premiere at Swanwick, through to larger cruising and luxury motor yachts. Confirmed Beneteau models include the Grand Trawler 63 and Swift Trawler 54 alongside models from Prestige, Bluegame, Sanlorenzo, Bavaria, Greenline and Regal.

A selection of brokerage yachts will sit alongside the new models, giving prospective buyers the opportunity to explore and compare new and pre-owned options during the same visit.

Designed around the buyer

Taking place from 19-27 September, the Swanwick Yachting Showcase has been created around dedicated appointments, allowing prospective owners to build their own schedule around the yachts and brands they are actively considering.

Visitors can spend dedicated time onboard, compare different models and layouts and speak directly with experienced sales and brokerage teams. Selected yachts will also be available for sea trials.

The addition of Sunseeker further strengthens the Showcase's offering and brings another major motor yacht name to an event designed specifically around the needs of serious boat buyers.

The Swanwick Yachting Showcase takes place from 19 - 27 September 2026 at Swanwick Marina on the River Hamble, near Southampton.

Attendance and parking are free, with all yacht viewings strictly by appointment.
