Gone are the days of figureheads on ships. Sunseeker has created a decidedly splashy status symbol for the front of its newest superyacht.
The Sunseeker 120, which was unveiled at the Monaco Yacht Show last September, features a glorious elevated foredeck with a plush lounge area and a giant six-person Jacuzzi right at the bow. That’s just the start of a long list of amenities, though.
The 120-footer is outfitted for entertaining inside and out. Three cascading decks and generous interiors allow seafarers to travel the seas in the lap of luxury. Starting at the top, a spacious flybridge of nearly 800 square feet is fitted with an aft lounge, a dining table for 12, and a large wet bar. Forward, the raised pilothouse leads to the aforementioned foredeck.
The Jacuzzi can seat between four and six people.

At the opposite end, the stern is equipped with a hydraulic swim platform and a fixed sun lounger that is integrated into the garage door. (The garage can accommodate a 20-foot tender and two Jet Skis.) Up the stairs and through the glazed safety gates lies the aft cockpit, or what Sunseeker describes as a “penthouse terrace.” The alfresco space sports a sizable bar and plenty of comfy seating.
The light and airy living quarters were brought to life by Design Unlimited. Rich stone finishes create a sumptuous feel, while reflective surfaces and statement lighting add brightness onboard. Spanning 1,300 square feet, the open-plan main deck gives seafarers uninterrupted views from the dining area to the salon. The generous galley is located on the port side and allows the crew to easily service all areas.

Further forward on the starboard side sits the owner’s suite. Furnished to the highest standards, the stateroom is adorned with an upholstered bed, chaise lounge, mirror TV, marble bulkheads, and floor-to-ceiling windows. It leads to a dressing room with a vanity desk and a marble-clad en suite with dual basin and a walk-in rain shower. In addition, two spacious double staterooms and two twins on the lower deck can sleep 10 guests, while three cabins at the bow can accommodate five crew.
In terms of performance, the 120 is powered by twin MTU 12V 2000 engines and can reach 20 knots at full tilt.
