Westhead Marine introduces Sunbeam Yachts to Australia

Sunbeam Yachts are well established and recognised in Europe for unmatched safety and quality in their class, said Australian importer Westhead Marine

The importer, based on Sydney's Pittwater, said the yachts are built for serious offshore cruising, combining luxury and striking tendency to high performance. For example,  a Sunbeam 44 won the 2007 Atlantic Rally for Cruisers from Antigua to Europe among a strong fleet of mostly larger yachts.

Sunbeam Yachts are manufactured by Schöchl Yachtbau in Mattsee, Salzburg, Austria. Schöchl Yachtbau, established in 1838 and privately owned, manufacture approximately 120 yachts per year ranging from 24 to 53ft.

Sunbeam Yachts are available in aft and centre cockpit versions. The yachts significantly differ from other high-volume production yachts, as many are manufactured to customers’ specifications and individual requirements.

Many customers visit the shipyard while their yacht is being built to be part of the process and experience, said the importer.

Westhead Marine said the first Sunbeam should arrive in May and they will be exhibited at the Sydney International Boat Show.
