1985 Sunseeker Portofino XPS 28

Marketing Description An opportunity to acquire a truly iconic example of British performance boating - Winter is a 1985 Sunseeker Portofino XPS 28 which perfectly captures the spirit of 1980s offshore design at its very best.  Recognised as a burgeoning classic, the XPS 28 represents an important chapter in Sunseeker’s evolution—combining sleek lines, exhilarating performance, and timeless appeal that continues to turn heads today.  This particular example benefits from twin AQAD40 DIESEL engines, both of which have been overhauled and serviced, offering reassurance alongside the thrilling performance these boats are known for. The result is a vessel that not only delivers on nostalgia and style, but also on reliability and usability.  The Portofino XPS 28’s deep-V hull and purposeful stance make it as capable as it is striking, whether enjoying coastal cruising or higher-speed passages.  Its growing status among enthusiasts and collectors alike makes it an increasingly desirable entry into the world of classic performance craft.
