In 2003, Sunreef Yachts
launched the 74-foot sailing catamaran CHE from its yard in Gdansk, Poland. It would be
the French-based company’s flagship and herald an eight-model line of 60- to
122-foot catamarans that clients could build and then place with Sunreef’s
charter division.

CHE showcased the yard’s ability to
produce a yacht-quality sailing catamaran able to withstand transatlantic
crossings between Caribbean and Mediterranean charter grounds, while also
maintaining a fit and finish that could be displayed effectively at boat
shows.
 The hallmarks of the line are a spacious salon and a large aft
deck covered by a social/working flybridge, popular features with charter
guests. The quality of the yachts, the yard’s willingness and ability to build
to an owner’s wishes, and the successful charter program are attracting owners
from Mexico, Australia and South Africa, as well as Europe. (Click image to enlarge)
The second launch was the all-composite 60-foot Mission—which
sails privately under the Breitling flag. The next launch, 62-foot
Mr. T, combined an aluminum hull with a composite superstructure.
Mr. T demonstrated her light-air ability off Miami, Florida, after the 2006
boat show. The yard’s fifth catamaran, 62-foot Trigger, was
launched in April. Aboard privately owned Trigger, the owner’s
suite occupies the entire starboard hull. The portside hull sleeps four in two
ensuite double cabins. Trigger is an all-aluminum boat with an 82-foot
carbon-fiber rig.

Currently, the yard has four 62-foot sailing catamarans under
construction. The design of a 122-footer has been finalized, and the yard is
awaiting the client’s signature.
Sunreef is diversifying, and it has a 67-foot power catamaran under
construction in Gdansk. In May, Sunreef launched its first 60-foot aluminum
monohull. Intended for fast cruising, it features twin rudders and a bulb keel.
Below is a huge salon and accommodations for six in the large owner’s suite
forward and two stern guest staterooms.
