Thats wind burn not sun burn in the Sunseeker XS Sport

The Sunseeker XS Sport has been around for a while now, however, it still sets a market-leading bench mark as a top performer and does not shy away from the newcomers such as the Fearless 28 from our previous review or for that matter other competitors challengers in this market place.

Originally named the XS 2000 the XS has been tweaked over the years to become a bench setter within the extremely fast sports boat market, it is available as the 2000 or sport variants.

The Sunseeker XS Sport comes with the option of twin 370hp or 440hp Yanmars. The 440hp set-up married to the ZF Trimax surface drives with two-speed transmissions make the boat very easy to manoeuvre (1.3:1 ratio in low gear, 1:1 in high) and would be our choice here, giving the XS a blistering top speed of over 70 mph.

The XS sports entire hull and deck is cored with balsa and reinforced with Kevlar skins. The XS walk-through cockpit leads to a 5-seat configuration plus a sun lounging area aft, race-styled helm features well-laid-out instruments with a radio and CD remote control system.

The XS is not for the faint-hearted, it is an outright extreme sports boat and for those who love speed this will be right up your street and of course, those who want to give their passengers a ride they won’t forget.

Two deck configurations are offered by Sunseeker, the XS 2000 comes as a closed forward deck while the XS Sport has a walk-around console open forward deck, both models will guarantee a pace that sets the adrenaline raging.
