Inside Lanikai: The 75ft Sunseeker Predator Experience in Oahu

Named for the Hawaiian words meaning “heavenly sea,” Lanikai stands as a true icon of European yacht design. As a 75-foot Sunseeker Predator—and the largest private luxury charter yacht available in Hawaiʻi—she balances formidable power with refined, open-air living space.

To step aboard Lanikai is to experience the Pacific with an entirely new level of grace, comfort, and speed.

Legendary British Craftsmanship Meets Island Waters

Built by the renowned British yard Sunseeker, Lanikai was engineered for those who appreciate both performance and timeless style.

Powered by twin MAN V12 turbo-diesel engines generating 1,300 horsepower each, her sleek hull achieves speeds up to 36 knots. This extraordinary performance allows guests to transition smoothly across Oahu’s coastal waters—from the skyline of Waikiki to quiet anchorage off Diamond Head—with minimal transit time and maximum stability.

On-Deck Living: Designed for the Pacific

Every inch of Lanikai’s exterior deck plan is crafted to celebrate the Hawaiian landscape and marine environment:

  • The Bow Sun Pad: Positioned forward on the yacht, this spacious lounge offers an unobstructed 180-degree view of the ocean—the ultimate vantage point for soaking in the sun or watching dolphins play along the bow wake.

  • Expansive Aft Cockpit: An open-air dining and seating retreat shaded from the midday sun, perfect for conversation, light bites, and watching the coastline glide past.

  • Hydraulic Swim Platform: At anchor, Lanikai’s swim platform lowers directly to sea level, offering an effortless transition into turquoise waters for swimming or lounging at the ocean’s edge.

Refined Interior Architecture & Below-Deck Comfort

Stepping inside reveals a climate-controlled sanctuary defined by rich cherry wood finishes, sleek lines, and generous proportions.

The upper salon bridges indoor and outdoor living with expansive wrap-around windows, a large dinette with dual leather sofas, and a retractable sunroof that opens to let in the blue sky and trade winds.

Below deck, Lanikai accommodates guests across three private staterooms and three heads:

  • Midship Owner’s Suite: Featuring a walk-around bed, flat-screen entertainment, and an ensuite head.

  • Forward VIP Stateroom: A beautifully appointed queen suite with private head and ample storage.

  • Midship Twin Cabin: A comfortable twin-bunk stateroom equipped with its own dedicated head.

Modern Audio & Climate Comforts

Whether relaxing in the air-conditioned main salon or lounging on the bow pad, Lanikai is equipped with high-fidelity sound systems featuring Bluetooth connectivity, a wine cooler for chilling vintage bottles, and a full galley with fresh countertops.

From her impressive 75-foot scale down to the subtle warmth of her interior woodwork, Lanikai provides a resort-style environment directly on the ocean.
