Survey watch points

Published displacement figures disagree

high risk · unresolved · dimensions

Manufacturer Principal Characteristics list half-load displacement 87,764 lb; Power & Motoryacht lists 82,453 lb without matching basis.

Published displacement is not a single settled number across opened sources.

The manufacturer model page lists HALF LOAD DISPLACEMENT 39,809 KG / 87,764 LB (sunseeker-manhattan-68-model-page). Power & Motoryacht's specifications table lists Displ.: 82,453 lb. without a matching load basis (power-motoryacht-manhattan-68-2025).

Canonical research keeps manufacturer half-load as the published root value and records the disagreement in provenance rather than inventing a midpoint.

Confirm displacement basis and load condition on the surveyed hull before using either published figure for planning.
Do not average the manufacturer half-load and editorial figures into a single displacement.

Published engine and propulsion options disagree

high risk · unresolved · documentation

OEM technical table lists twin MAN V8 1000/1200 on shafts only; editorial sources also claim MAN V12 and/or IPS options not shown on the current manufacturer page.

Engine and propulsion availability is not consistent across opened sources for the 2025 Manhattan 68.

The current manufacturer model page Technical table lists Twin MAN V8 1000 (2 x 1000PS) and Twin MAN V8 1200 (2 x 1200PS) with PROPULSION SHAFTS (sunseeker-manhattan-68-model-page). Power & Motoryacht additionally describes MAN V12 options and a 2/1,550-hp MAN V12 power line (power-motoryacht-manhattan-68-2025). YachtBuyer/Aquaholic body copy states an IPS or shaft choice (yachtbuyer-aquaholic-manhattan-68-2025).

Canonical research publishes only the manufacturer-documented MAN V8 shaft packages and records the editorial extras as unresolved documentation conflict.

Verify installed engine family, rating, and shaft vs pod propulsion on the surveyed hull against builder build sheet.
Do not treat editorial V12 or IPS claims as confirmed options without manufacturer documentation for that hull.

Published guest berth counts disagree

high risk · unresolved · layout

Manufacturer Accommodation line states up to 8 guests; YachtBuyer specifications list Berths 6 for a 4-cabin key-facts block.

Guest berth capacity is not a single settled number across opened sources.

The manufacturer Accommodation line lists CABINS 4 (up to 8 guests & 2 crew) (sunseeker-manhattan-68-model-page). YachtBuyer specifications for the same 2025 review page list Berths 6 with Cabins 4 (yachtbuyer-aquaholic-manhattan-68-2025).

Canonical research keeps manufacturer maximum guest capacity as the published root maximum and records the YachtBuyer figure as an unresolved conflict rather than inventing a midpoint.

Confirm guest berth count for the surveyed layout option (3-cabin, 4-cabin, or Pullman) before marketing sleep capacity.
Do not average 6 and 8 into a planning berth count.
