NOROADER: How One Owner Took a Sunseeker 116 to Another Level
A Sunseeker 116 With Generous Proportions
NOROADER measures 35.36 metres overall, with a beam of 7.33 metres, a draft of 2.44 metres and a gross tonnage of 245.
Built to Sunseeker's Platinum specification, she follows the shipyard's established raised-pilothouse design, separating the main guest accommodation from the navigation and operational areas.
The arrangement provides considerable interior volume for a yacht of this length, while retaining the relatively sporty exterior profile associated with the Sunseeker brand.
Her construction and layout also reflect the versatility of the 116 model, which combines substantial guest facilities with the performance expected from a large planing motor yacht.

A Foredeck Designed for Relaxation and Entertainment
The foredeck is one of NOROADER's most distinctive outdoor spaces.
A large Jacuzzi occupies the forward section, surrounded by sunbathing areas and comfortable seating. A table provides space for refreshments, while removable sun awnings offer shade during the day.
The area can also be transformed into an outdoor cinema. A projector and four-metre screen allow guests to watch films beneath the stars, making use of a part of the yacht that might otherwise be reserved primarily for sunbathing.
This arrangement gives the forward deck a separate identity from the other exterior areas, particularly during evening entertainment.

A Contemporary Main Saloon With Traditional Layout
Inside, NOROADER retains the familiar arrangement of the Sunseeker 116, with a large main saloon extending forward from the aft entrance.
A white marble-topped bar separates the seating area from the formal dining space, while large windows bring natural light into the interior.
The decoration combines modern furnishings with polished surfaces and carefully selected materials. During the 2023 refit, the main deck received new dark wood flooring, soft furnishings and updated lighting.
Further improvements included new furniture and additional electrical outlets, making the interior more practical for guests who spend extended periods on board.
Although the finishes have changed, the traditional division between lounge, dining and private accommodation remains intact.

A Main-Deck Owner's Suite With a Spa-Style Bathroom
The owner's stateroom is situated forward on the main deck, accessed through a private corridor on the starboard side.
Occupying the full beam of the yacht, the suite includes a large bed, seating area, dressing facilities and a desk or vanity unit.
One of its most interesting features is the split-level bathroom, reached by descending a few steps from the bedroom. The arrangement creates a separate space for bathing, with marble finishes and carefully designed lighting.
The air-conditioning system in the owner's accommodation has also been upgraded, contributing to the improvements made to onboard comfort.

Four Guest Cabins With Flexible Accommodation
The lower deck contains four additional guest staterooms, comprising two VIP doubles and two convertible twin cabins.
The twin cabins can be arranged to suit different groups, while additional Pullman berths provide further accommodation flexibility.
Each cabin has its own en-suite bathroom, with the materials and finishes continuing the design established on the main deck.
This configuration is particularly practical for families or mixed groups of charter guests, allowing the sleeping arrangements to be adapted without compromising the privacy of individual cabins.

An Expansive Flybridge With New Facilities
NOROADER's flybridge provides another substantial outdoor living area, with space for dining, lounging and exercise.
As part of the 2023 refit, the owner introduced a large bar, a solid dining table, additional sunbeds and a dedicated area suitable for gym equipment.
A retractable roof allows the central section to be shaded or opened depending on the weather.
The arrangement provides an alternative to the main aft deck, where guests can enjoy a generous dining table and comfortable seating closer to the water.
These changes have expanded the yacht's entertainment facilities without altering the basic arrangement of the Sunseeker 116.

Hull Modifications and MTU Performance
Some of NOROADER's most significant improvements are not immediately visible.
The owner commissioned the installation of a Hull Vane, an underwater foil designed to improve the yacht's running attitude, together with Humphree interceptor trim tabs.
These additions were intended to help the yacht rise onto the plane more quickly and improve overall performance.
Power comes from twin MTU 2000-series diesel engines. According to the figures discussed in the walkthrough, the yacht is capable of exceeding 25 knots, with a recommended cruising speed of approximately 12 knots.
The estimated range is around 1,250 nautical miles at cruising speed and approximately 960 nautical miles at maximum speed.
The modifications demonstrate how improvements to a yacht's handling and efficiency can remain worthwhile even when the original performance was already satisfactory.

Crew Facilities and an Extensive Collection of Water Toys
NOROADER's raised pilothouse is positioned between the main deck and flybridge, providing a dedicated navigation area away from the principal guest spaces.
The adjoining galley is arranged for efficient service, with access to the crew accommodation. Three crew cabins, together with a crew mess, provide the facilities required for day-to-day operations.
At the stern, a substantial garage houses watersports equipment and allows the decks above to remain relatively clear.
The yacht's equipment includes two Jet Skis, Seabobs, paddleboards, wakeboards, a wakefoil, inflatable towable toys and snorkelling gear.
A Williams jet tender and a 35-foot Fiart Seawalker chase tender provide additional transport and recreational options.
Together, these facilities give guests a wide range of activities without requiring extensive alterations to the yacht's exterior arrangement.

A Major Refit and Continued Investment
NOROADER underwent an extensive refit in 2023, with work covering both guest-facing spaces and technical equipment.
Alongside the new flybridge facilities and interior improvements, the owner invested in additional refrigeration and freezer capacity, upgraded lighting, improved air conditioning and other practical additions throughout the vessel.
Starlink Maritime connectivity has also been installed, providing internet access for guests and crew.
The yacht has completed her five-year survey, an important maintenance milestone for a vessel delivered in 2020.
For anyone considering a yacht of this size, the extent of the work carried out by previous owners is an important factor. In NOROADER's case, the combination of mechanical improvements, updated accommodation and an established charter programme demonstrates the level of investment made since her delivery.
