Thumper

Onboard the Thumper

Thumper carries her forty metres with the low, purposeful profile that Sunseeker builds are known for. The scale shows in wide deck runs and long sightlines rather than size for its own sake — five cabins arranged for twelve guests give the layout room to breathe, with suites that feel private rather than stacked one against another.

For groups thinking of leaving Barcelona behind for a few days, Thumper's length makes the crossing toward Menorca — around 200 nautical miles, usually run as a two-day passage — a comfortable proposition rather than an endurance test. The cabin count keeps a group together without doubling anyone up, and the added length settles the motion once clear of the harbour traffic that marks any departure from Port Olímpic.

Twelve guests across five cabins suits a family travelling with adult children, a small ownership group, or a corporate party that would rather stay under one roof than split across vessels. Charters run out of Barcelona, and given the yacht's size, settling on dates and route ahead of time is worth doing early rather than leaving it to the last week.
