Sunseeker Predator 108 + Caterham 7 = Awesome by Land and Sea

Filed under: Yachts & Sailing, Luxury Cars & Autos

If you've laid out the £7.1 million ($11.4M U.S.) necessary to take ownership of a Sunseeker Predator 108 Special Edition, you might want to give serious thought to whether you need a tender. After all, there are docks, water taxis, and the smaller yachts of lesser mortals to get you from ship-to-shore.

What you might actually want is something as magnificent on land as the Predator is on the water in that case, Sunseeker would like to recommend you install a Caterham 7 in the hold. As a kickstart to inspiration for for visitors to the London Boat Show the yacht maker did just that. Fair warning though: the Predator sleeps eight but the Caterham only seats, so you'll probably need to be nice to the captain to get a ride. And if you really can't do without a tender – Caterhams are known to have a hard time floating in Aegean inlets – allow us to introduce you to the word "inflatable."

The London Boat Show runs until January 17.

Certain yacht makers may be experiencing something of a crisis as my colleague Deidre Woollard reported recently, but that hasn't stopped the high-end brands from rolling out new models. UK-made Sunseeker, whose sleek craft had a starring role in the last three James Bond films, is faring well and just unveiled its new 30 Metre trideck superyacht (above) at the London Boat Show. It features a dual control flybridge helm, accommodation for up to ten guests and four crew, and speeds of up to 28 knots. Throughout the luxe ship there are state-of-the-art electronics, rich walnut furnishings, highly polished teak decks, embossed headlinings, high gloss lacquer bulkheads, richly tanned leather and plush fabrics and carpeting.

Remember that Sunseeker tri-deck I mentioned earlier this week? It made its debut at the London Boat Show this week as the most expensive yacht there; it has a sticker price of over $17 million. The picture on the right is of the saloon. BYM News has an extensive gallery from the London Boat Show which includes pictures of the exterior of the Sunseeker (it's a beauty), action shots of the Extreme 40 Challenge sailing event and the gorgeous Azimut 98.
