The Sunreef 60: A Complete Guide
The Sunreef 60 is the centrepiece of the Sunreef range — a fully bespoke luxury sailing catamaran that defies comparison with anything from the production catamaran world. At 18.30 m LOA and 10.20 m beam, the Sunreef 60 delivers a volume and interior finish that reviewers consistently compare to a 70-footer. Every hull is built to the owner’s exact specification at Sunreef’s state-of-the-art shipyard in Gdańsk, Poland — from the hull layup and rig configuration to the wood species, stone countertops, upholstery, and smart-home systems. No two Sunreef 60s are alike, and that is precisely the point.
The 60-foot catamaran has been part of the Sunreef portfolio since the yard’s earliest years, with the original Sunreef 60 Loft debuting in the mid-2000s. The current generation — part of the “New Beginning” range launched around 2019 alongside the 50, 70, 80, and 100 — represents a fundamental rethinking of the platform. The hull geometry has been refined with higher, narrower bows that cut through waves rather than slamming into them, delivering a noticeably smoother ride. The superstructure has been raised to create the 225 m² of total living space that gives the boat its outsized sense of volume. And, critically, the 60 is now available in an Eco variant featuring Sunreef’s proprietary Solar Skin 3.0 technology and twin electric motors — making it one of the most advanced sustainable yachts in the world.
The Sunreef story is inextricable from its founder, Francis Lapp. An Alsatian French electrical engineer who settled in Poland in 1992, Lapp became an avid sailor and quickly grew frustrated with the lack of luxury in the catamaran market. In 2000, he leased 6,000 m² of the recently closed Gdańsk Shipyard and began building catamarans himself. The first vessel — a 22.5-metre catamaran designed by Van Peteghem Lauriot-Prévost — launched on 25 July 2003 and introduced the world to the concept of a luxury ocean-going catamaran with a flybridge. The yachting establishment was sceptical, but 570+ hulls later, the market has been proven beyond question. Today, Sunreef employs over 2,000 people across a 125,000 m² complex in Gdańsk and a 65,000 m² facility in Ras Al Khaimah, UAE. Revenue is growing at approximately 10% year-on-year, with a €1 billion target by 2030.
The brand’s prestige is reinforced by a remarkable roster of celebrity owners. Formula 1 champion Fernando Alonso took delivery of a 60 Sunreef Power Eco in 2023. Rafael Nadal owns an 80 Sunreef Power named “Great White.” Former F1 champion Nico Rosberg, tennis star Carlos Alcaraz (reportedly ordering a Sunreef Ultima 88), and numerous other high-profile figures have chosen the brand. This is not accidental — it reflects Sunreef’s deliberate positioning at the pinnacle of luxury yachting, where customisation, sustainability, and craftsmanship converge.

The displacement differential between the standard and Eco variants is striking: at 22 tonnes, the standard Sunreef 60 is comparable in weight to production 60-footers, while the Eco variant at approximately 39 tonnes carries the considerable mass of the battery bank, electric motors, generators, and integrated solar infrastructure. This weight penalty is the primary trade-off for silent electric propulsion and sustainable operation.
The 10.20 m beam is notably wider than the Lagoon 60 (9.87 m) and considerably wider than any monohull of equivalent length. This beam creates exceptional interior volume but also has practical implications for berthing: many older European marinas cannot accommodate a 10.2 m catamaran, and marina fees are typically calculated on beam as well as length.
Performance & Handling
The Sunreef 60 is not designed to win regattas. It is designed to cross oceans in supreme comfort and arrive with its crew rested, its systems intact, and its interior immaculate. Within that brief, it performs exceptionally well — but buyers expecting the nimble handling of an Outremer or HH Catamarans performance multihull should recalibrate their expectations.
Under Sail
The current-generation hull design is key to the Sunreef 60’s sailing character. The hulls are higher and narrower than the previous generation, with fine entry angles at the bow that slice through waves rather than riding over them. As one experienced captain described it: “Because of the thin hull and the high, narrow bow, she doesn’t hit the waves but cuts through them, so you feel much less impact.” This translates into a notably smoother motion at sea compared to flatter-bottomed production catamarans.
In moderate trade-wind conditions (15–20 knots true wind), the Sunreef 60 achieves comfortable sustained speeds of 8–10 knots on a reach. The combined upwind sail area of approximately 200 m² (mainsail plus genoa) provides adequate drive, and the optional gennaker (220 m²) or spinnaker (300 m²) extends performance significantly in lighter air and off-wind angles. Maximum speed under sail can reach 12–14 knots in strong conditions. Upwind, expect 6–7 knots at 45–50 degrees apparent — adequate for passage-making, if not exhilarating.
Light-air performance is the boat’s acknowledged weakness. At 22 tonnes (standard variant), the Sunreef 60 needs 10–12 knots of true wind to sail effectively without downwind sails. Below that threshold, the gennaker becomes essential or the engines come on. The Eco variant at 39 tonnes feels this limitation even more acutely, though the availability of silent electric motoring at low speeds mitigates the issue in practice.
Under Power
The standard twin Yanmar 135 HP diesels deliver a top speed of approximately 10 knots under power, with a comfortable cruising speed of 7–8 knots. With the 1,000–1,750-litre fuel capacity, range under power at economical cruising speed is approximately 800–1,200 NM, depending on conditions and fuel load. The twin saildrives are well-mannered in tight quarters, and the 60’s high bridge deck clearance reduces slamming in a seaway.
Eco variant under power: The twin 70 kW electric motors provide silent motoring with zero emissions. The battery bank supports up to six hours of motoring in complete silence, supplemented by hydro-generation from propeller rotation while sailing. When the batteries are depleted, the twin 80 kW diesel generators serve as range extenders, providing effectively unlimited range with the convenience of recharging under way. The integrated solar panels (4.5–17 kWp depending on specification) contribute meaningful energy input in sunny conditions — particularly at anchor, where solar generation can power all house loads and air conditioning for 24+ hours without running a generator.
Bluewater Credentials
The Sunreef 60 is CE Category A (Ocean) certified, confirming its suitability for open-ocean passages. Multiple Sunreef 60s have completed transatlantic crossings, and the model is a regular participant in Caribbean charter seasons after Mediterranean-to-Caribbean delivery passages. The 1,600-litre water capacity (supplemented by a high-output watermaker) and generous fuel reserves provide genuine long-range cruising autonomy.
Handling in close quarters: The 10.20 m beam requires careful attention in marina environments. The twin engines provide excellent low-speed manoeuvrability with differential thrust, but the sheer size of the platform demands a confident helmsman in tight fairways. Many owners opt for bow and stern thrusters as a factory option, and this is recommended for Mediterranean berthing where stern-to arrangements in cramped harbours are routine. The expansive flybridge helm station offers excellent 360-degree visibility for docking manoeuvres.
Interior Layout & Comfort
This is where the Sunreef 60 exists in a category of its own. The interior is not selected from a catalogue — it is designed from a blank canvas in collaboration with Sunreef’s in-house team of naval architects, interior designers, and craftspeople. The owner specifies every surface, every material, every fixture. The result is 225 m² of living space finished to a standard that experienced surveyors consistently describe as “superyacht quality in a 60-foot package.”
Cabin Configurations
The Sunreef 60 is offered in three primary configurations, each fully customisable:
- 3-cabin owner’s version: Dedicates the entire forward section of the starboard hull to an opulent master suite with walk-in dressing room, sofa, desk, retractable TV, and an oversized ensuite head with ceramic counters, teak finish, and rain shower. The port hull accommodates two guest cabins, each with ensuite facilities. Separate crew quarters aft for two crew members with external access for privacy. Accommodates 6 guests plus 2 crew.
- 4-cabin version: Two cabins per hull — typically one king and three queen berths, all with ensuite bathrooms. The master cabin retains premium proportions. This layout balances private ownership comfort with guest-hosting flexibility. Accommodates 8 guests plus 2–3 crew.
- 5-cabin charter version: Maximises guest capacity with 10 berths across five cabins, each with ensuite facilities. Three crew members (captain, chef, stewardess) are housed in separate aft quarters. This layout is optimised for crewed charter operations in the Caribbean and Mediterranean.
Main Saloon & Galley
The main saloon has been reimagined in the current generation to offer a vast central lounging space with panoramic glazing on three sides and a skylight above. The transition from cockpit to saloon is completely flush — creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow that defines the Sunreef lifestyle. Typical finishes include Canaletto walnut veneer, high-gloss lacquer, beige upholstery, and natural teak flooring throughout. The galley is positioned either “galley-up” on the main deck level with a central island for food preparation, or “galley-down” in one hull to maximise salon space. Professional-grade appliances (Miele, Gaggenau) are standard across most builds.
Flybridge & Exterior Living
The 36 m² flybridge is dedicated entirely to alfresco living and represents one of the Sunreef 60’s most compelling features. Owners can configure this space with a Jacuzzi, full wet bar, barbecue station, and generous sunpads. The main helm station is located here, featuring Harken power winches and a carbon fibre wheel, with excellent forward visibility for both sailing and close-quarters manoeuvring.
The Sunreef 60 is the smallest model in the Sunreef range to feature a bow terrace — a cosy lounge area forward of the pilothouse with an L-shaped settee and flanking sunpads. Positioned at an optimal height for enjoying the view while cruising but lowered for protection from sea spray, this space adds a private retreat that larger Sunreefs have popularised.
At the stern, the aft cockpit seats 8–10 guests around a dining table and extends via a hydraulic bathing platform that serves triple duty as swim platform, tender lift, and teak beach area. The platform lowers to water level, effectively extending the cockpit for evening entertainment. High bulwarks and generous topsides provide a sense of security rarely found on catamarans of this size.
Build Quality & Craftsmanship
Sunreef manufactures the vast majority of components in-house — from composite hull mouldings to metalwork, rigging, carbon masts, interior cabinetry, and upholstery. The Gdańsk shipyard operates dedicated carpentry, upholstery, and stainless-steel workshops, one of Europe’s largest CNC machines, and a 300-ton floating crane. This vertical integration gives the yard a level of quality control that outsourced production simply cannot match. Where production builders like Lagoon and Fountaine Pajot optimise for throughput and consistency across thousands of hulls, Sunreef optimises each individual hull for the specific tastes and requirements of a single owner.
Ownership & Running Costs
Owning a Sunreef 60 is a premium financial commitment that extends well beyond the purchase price. The bespoke systems, wide beam, and luxury positioning place running costs firmly in superyacht territory. Industry convention suggests budgeting 10–15% of purchase price annually for a yacht of this calibre, though actual costs vary with cruising ground, usage patterns, and whether the boat carries professional crew.
Purchase Price
New Sunreef 60 builds currently start from approximately €3.5–4.5 million for the standard sailing variant, with heavily specified boats and the Eco variant commanding €5–7+ million. Build time is typically 18–30 months from contract, and delays are not uncommon given the bespoke nature of each project. Used examples span a wide range:
- 2005–2015 (first generation): €775,000–€1,540,000
- 2018–2021 (late first / early second gen): €1,195,000–€1,540,000
- 2023–2025 (current generation): €2,950,000–€4,500,000
- Eco variant (2024): €6,200,000–$7,245,000
Annual Running Costs
- Insurance: 0.8–2.0% of hull value annually. For a €4 million boat, expect €32,000–€80,000. Caribbean and hurricane-zone coverage commands significantly higher premiums. Specialist marine insurers with luxury catamaran experience are essential — standard recreational policies are inadequate.
- Berthing: A 60-foot catamaran with a 10.20 m beam requires an oversized berth. Premium Mediterranean locations (Antibes, Palma, Montenegro, Athens) can exceed €100,000 per season. Caribbean marina fees range from $2,000–$4,000 per month. Many owners reduce costs by anchoring out — the 1.58 m draft opens up numerous shallow-water anchorages.
- Engine and systems maintenance: Twin Yanmar 135 HP diesels require annual servicing at €4,000–€7,000. Generator, air conditioning (72,000 BTU), watermaker, and bespoke electrical systems (often including sophisticated Domotics/smart-home integration) add €8,000–€15,000 per year. The Eco variant’s electric propulsion, battery management, and solar systems require Sunreef-certified technicians, limiting service options and potentially increasing downtime.
- Haul-out and antifouling: €8,000–€15,000 annually for a 60-foot catamaran, reflecting the oversized hull area and the need for specialist boatyards with adequate beam capacity in the travel lift.
- Crew: The Sunreef 60 can be sailed by an experienced couple but is designed with professional crew in mind. A captain/mate costs €45,000–€70,000 per year; a full charter crew of three (captain, chef, stewardess) pushes crew costs to €100,000–€150,000.
- Approximate total (owner-operated):€70,000–€150,000 per year without crew. With a professional captain, €120,000–€220,000. These figures represent approximately 2–5% of purchase price annually — competitive for the superyacht segment but dramatically higher than running costs for production catamarans like the Lagoon 60 or Fountaine Pajot Alegria 67.
Depreciation & Value Retention
Sunreef yachts benefit from limited production volumes and formidable brand prestige. However, the bespoke nature of each build introduces significant valuation complexity. A new Sunreef 60 can lose 15–30% of its value in years 1–3, with depreciation slowing to 5–10% per year during years 3–7. Beyond seven years, values stabilise but depend heavily on maintenance history, refit quality, and overall condition. Critically, a highly personalised interior (unusual colour schemes, bespoke fittings, non-standard layouts) may narrow the pool of potential buyers on the secondary market. The Eco variant is expected to retain value particularly well as sustainable yachting demand accelerates, but there is insufficient secondary market data to confirm this trend definitively.
Buying Guide: What to Look For
Purchasing a Sunreef 60 — whether new or used — requires a fundamentally different approach from buying a production catamaran. Each boat is unique, and the due diligence process must reflect this. A surveyor experienced with bespoke luxury catamarans is not optional — it is essential.
New Build Considerations
- Project management: A fully custom Sunreef 60 build takes 18–30 months and requires active owner involvement or a professional build supervisor. Delays are common. Budget for 2–3 trips to Gdańsk for specification reviews and sea trials.
- Weight management: Because owners have extensive freedom in choosing interior materials (marble countertops, heavy hardwoods, oversized appliances), some builds end up significantly heavier than the design waterline. Confirm displacement targets with the yard early and monitor weight throughout the build.
- Resale-conscious specification: While customisation is the entire point of a Sunreef, buyers should be aware that highly idiosyncratic interiors may limit resale appeal. Neutral colour palettes and standard cabin configurations tend to perform better on the secondary market.
Used Market Inspection Points
- Gel coat condition: Some owners have reported gel coat deterioration as early as 10 months after delivery. Inspect all gel coat surfaces carefully, particularly below the waterline, around fittings, and on the hull topsides. Check the boot stripe for signs that the boat is riding lower than the designed waterline due to over-specification.
- Electrical systems: The bespoke electrical systems, which often include sophisticated Domotics/smart-home integration, are highly complex. Require a specialist marine electronics technician to verify all bus systems, automated controls, and integration logic. Proprietary systems may require Sunreef-certified technicians for repair, limiting options and increasing costs.
- Hydraulic platform: The aft tender lift/bathing platform is a high-wear component. Inspect hydraulic rams and platform alignment carefully — warping can cause significant mechanical strain, particularly on boats that have made ocean passages with the platform under load.
- Rig and standing rigging: Carbon fibre masts and booms are standard on many builds. Inspect for impact damage, UV degradation, and fitting corrosion. Standing rigging should be replaced on the same schedule as any ocean-going yacht — every 10–12 years, or sooner based on surveyor recommendation.
- Service history: Sunreef’s after-sales service network is smaller than Lagoon (Groupe Bénéteau) or Fountaine Pajot. Technical support is largely centralised through the Sunreef service department in Gdańsk, with hubs in Dubai and Fort Lauderdale. Confirm that all scheduled maintenance has been completed and documented, and verify that any warranty claims were resolved satisfactorily.
Charter History
A significant proportion of Sunreef 60s enter the charter market, particularly in the Caribbean and Mediterranean. Ex-charter boats can offer compelling value (15–25% below equivalent private boats), but carry correspondingly higher wear on interior fixtures, deck hardware, and tender equipment. Charter boats should also be scrutinised for cosmetic repairs that may mask underlying issues. The charter fleet is becoming increasingly crowded — prospective buyers considering a charter programme should research current fleet sizes and weekly rates carefully before projecting income.
Sunreef 60 vs Competitors & Alternatives
The Sunreef 60 occupies a unique position in the market. Its true competitors are the premium end of the production catamaran world and other bespoke luxury builders — though buyers invariably compare across both categories. The fundamental question is whether a buyer values bespoke customisation and superyacht-level finish over production-line value, parts availability, and dealer network support.
Sunreef 60 vs Lagoon 60
The Lagoon 60 is the most direct production-line competitor. At approximately €1.8–2.5 million, the Lagoon costs roughly half the Sunreef’s entry price. The Lagoon offers a proven VPLP hull design, Nauta Design interiors, a global dealer network through Groupe Bénéteau, and strong resale liquidity backed by consistent production numbers. Where it cannot compete is in the depth of customisation, the material quality of interior finishes, and the sense of exclusivity that defines every Sunreef. The Lagoon 60 is lighter (28,500 kg vs 22,000 kg for the standard Sunreef; 39,000 kg for the Eco), offers slightly more sail area, and benefits from significantly better parts availability. For buyers who prioritise sailing performance and long-term ownership simplicity, the Lagoon is the pragmatic choice.
Sunreef 60 vs Lagoon 50
The Lagoon 50 represents the high-volume production alternative for buyers who want the largest possible catamaran at the most accessible price point. At approximately €900,000–1,200,000, a used Lagoon 50 costs a fraction of the Sunreef 60. The trade-off is obvious: the Lagoon’s production-line interior, standardised systems, and narrower beam (8.55 m vs 10.20 m) deliver less volume, less customisation, and a fundamentally different ownership experience. For budget-conscious buyers who value proven reliability and straightforward maintenance, the Lagoon 50 offers strong value. But the Sunreef 60 exists in a different universe of quality and aspiration.
Sunreef 60 vs Privilège 510
The Privilège 510 is philosophically the closest competitor — a luxury long-distance cruiser with an excellent reputation for build quality, interior finish, and genuine bluewater capability. Built by Allègre Yachts (formerly Hanse Group) in Les Sables-d’Olonne, France, the Privilège has a longer heritage in luxury multihulls and a devoted following among experienced ocean cruisers. Designed to carry up to 6 tonnes of cruising gear without performance degradation, the Privilège is arguably the more serious offshore yacht. What it lacks is Sunreef’s Eco/electric technology, the depth of bespoke customisation, and the celebrity cachet that now surrounds the brand. For buyers who prioritise proven offshore capability over brand prestige, the Privilège deserves very serious consideration.
Sunreef 60 vs Fountaine Pajot Alegria 67
The Alegria 67 is Fountaine Pajot’s flagship sailing catamaran and competes with the Sunreef 60 on size, comfort, and luxury positioning. At approximately €2.5–3.5 million, it bridges the gap between production and bespoke pricing. The Alegria offers Berret-Racoupeau naval architecture, a proven hull form, and the backing of a well-established French manufacturer with a robust global dealer network. The interior is high-quality by production standards, though it does not approach the fully bespoke finish of a Sunreef. For buyers who want a large luxury catamaran with the reassurance of a production builder’s support infrastructure, the Alegria 67 is a compelling proposition.
Sunreef 60 vs Leopard 50
Built by Robertson & Caine in Cape Town, South Africa, the Leopard 50 represents the value end of the large catamaran market. Known for durability, practical layouts, and strong performance in charter and liveaboard applications, the Leopard is the workhorse choice. At roughly €700,000–1,000,000 used, it costs a fraction of the Sunreef 60. The interior finish is functional rather than luxurious, and the level of customisation is minimal. For buyers where the yacht is primarily a platform for cruising rather than a statement of craftsmanship, the Leopard delivers exceptional value per square metre of living space.
Sunreef 60 vs Sunreef 50
For buyers already committed to the Sunreef brand but debating between the 50 and 60, the decision comes down to volume, crew accommodation, and budget. The Sunreef 50 at 15.20 m LOA and 167 m² of living space is designed for experienced couple-handed sailing without professional crew — it is the more intimate, manageable yacht. The 60, with 225 m² and a dedicated crew cabin, is designed for professional crew operation and offers the bow terrace that the 50 lacks. The price differential between the two models is approximately €1–2 million new, reflecting the significantly greater volume, more powerful rig, and additional living spaces. Both share the same DNA of bespoke craftsmanship and in-house manufacturing.
