The generous saloon includes a sumptuous U-shaped seating area, ample storage and comprehensive port side bar console; all below an extraordinary glass sliding roof.  Below deck from the saloon, there is a generous galley and three spacious en-suite cabins, comprising a midships master, starboard twin and forward VIP.

Behind the Predator 74 transom, directly below the vast sun-pad, the tender garage provides the space to house a jet tender or Jet Ski short of four meters in size, with a hydraulic bathing platform to make launching effortless.  The transom area features an optional Beach Club with parasol, this option first introduced with the Manhattan 52 in 2016 and now a Sunseeker signature feature. This area offers an inviting space for family and friends to enjoy the built-in BBQ, overhead rain shower and fold-down transom seating.  The Sunseeker 74 Predator is powered by standard Man 1550hp engines which give an impressive top speed of up to 35 knots.
