About Sunreef
Sunreef Yachts is a remarkable story of ambition, vision, and rapid growth. Founded in 2002 by Francis Lapp — a French entrepreneur who relocated to Poland to take advantage of the country's deep shipbuilding heritage and skilled workforce — the company set out to build luxury catamarans that could compete with the world's finest monohull superyachts in terms of interior fit-out, design, and bespoke customisation. Operating from a sprawling shipyard complex at Doki 1 on the Gdańsk waterfront, Sunreef has grown into the undisputed global leader in the luxury custom catamaran segment, delivering vessels that range from the 50-foot Sunreef 50 to the extraordinary Sunreef 160 — one of the largest luxury catamarans ever built.
The company's product range is divided into two core categories: sailing catamarans and power catamarans. The sailing range includes the Sunreef 60, 70, 80, and 100, each available as a fully custom build with owner-specified layouts, materials, and systems. The power catamaran range mirrors these sizes with sleeker, motor-oriented hull forms designed for higher cruising speeds and expansive flybridge entertaining areas. What distinguishes Sunreef from production catamaran builders like Lagoon or Fountaine Pajot is the degree of customisation — every Sunreef is essentially a one-off build, with owners working directly with the in-house design team to specify everything from hull colour and interior timber species to galley appliance brands and audio-visual systems.
Sunreef's most significant innovation is the Eco line, introduced in the late 2010s. The Sunreef Eco range integrates solar panels directly into composite hull surfaces, bimini tops, mast structures, and superstructure panels, generating enough electrical power to run hotel systems and — in favourable conditions — provide silent electric propulsion. The technology allows owners to anchor in pristine locations without running generators, dramatically reducing noise, vibration, and emissions. The Eco line has attracted significant attention from environmentally conscious buyers and has positioned Sunreef as a pioneer in sustainable luxury yachting.
The company's client list reads like a who's who of international celebrities and ultra-high-net-worth individuals. The most famous Sunreef is arguably Rafael Nadal's 80-foot power catamaran "Great White," which the tennis champion uses extensively in the Mediterranean. Other high-profile deliveries have gone to business leaders, tech entrepreneurs, and royal families. This clientele reflects the brand's positioning at the intersection of superyacht luxury and catamaran practicality — Sunreef owners want the space, stability, and shallow draft of a catamaran without compromising on the finish quality expected of a 40-metre monohull superyacht.
In the broader market, Sunreef competes on two fronts. For smaller models (50-70 feet), the competitive set includes premium production catamaran builders like Lagoon, Fountaine Pajot, Leopard, and Privilege — though Sunreef's bespoke approach and significantly higher price point place it in a different category. For larger vessels (80-160+ feet), Sunreef competes with custom superyacht builders and one-off catamaran projects from yards in Turkey, the Netherlands, and New Zealand. The typical Sunreef buyer is an experienced yachtsman or yachtswoman — or a first-time yacht owner with superyacht expectations — who has chosen the catamaran platform for its stability, space, and versatility, and wants a vessel built to their exact specification.
Sunreef's Gdańsk shipyard employs over 3,000 people and operates multiple production halls capable of building several large catamarans simultaneously. The Polish workforce brings a tradition of precision engineering and shipbuilding craftsmanship that dates back centuries, and labour costs that are competitive with Western European and American yards. This combination of skill and cost efficiency allows Sunreef to deliver a level of customisation and finish that would be prohibitively expensive at comparable yards in France, Italy, or the United States.
Frequently Asked Questions About Sunreef
Where are Sunreef catamarans built?
Sunreef catamarans are built at the company's shipyard complex at Doki 1 in Gdańsk, Poland. The facility spans over 100,000 square metres along the Gdańsk waterfront and employs over 3,000 people. Poland has a deep tradition of shipbuilding, and the skilled workforce is a key factor in Sunreef's ability to deliver highly customised vessels at competitive prices compared to Western European yards.
What types of catamarans does Sunreef build?
Sunreef builds luxury sailing catamarans and power catamarans ranging from 50 to over 160 feet. Every Sunreef is a custom build — owners work directly with the in-house design team to specify layouts, materials, finishes, and systems. The company also produces the Sunreef Eco line, which integrates solar panels into hull and superstructure surfaces for electric propulsion and silent anchoring.
How does Sunreef compare to Lagoon or Fountaine Pajot?
Sunreef operates in a fundamentally different segment from production catamaran builders like Lagoon and Fountaine Pajot. While those brands build standardised production boats at volume with fixed layouts and options lists, Sunreef builds fully custom, one-off catamarans with bespoke interiors and systems. Sunreef prices are significantly higher — often 3-5 times the cost of an equivalent-length Lagoon — reflecting the custom nature, superyacht-quality fit-out, and larger maximum sizes available.
How much does a Sunreef catamaran cost?
Sunreef catamarans start at approximately €2-3 million for a Sunreef 50 and scale dramatically with size and specification. A Sunreef 80 typically ranges from €5-8 million depending on customisation, while the largest models (100-160 feet) can exceed €20 million. The Eco versions command a premium over standard models due to the integrated solar technology. Every boat is priced individually based on the owner's specification.
What is the Sunreef Eco line?
The Sunreef Eco line is a range of solar-powered catamarans that integrate photovoltaic panels directly into composite hull surfaces, bimini tops, and mast structures. The solar array generates enough electricity to power hotel systems (air conditioning, lighting, appliances) and, in favourable conditions, provide silent electric propulsion. The Eco line allows owners to anchor without running generators — eliminating noise, vibration, and emissions — and represents one of the most advanced approaches to sustainable luxury yachting.
