Classic Performance | VW Cummins V6 Diesel | Bravo III Drive | Recent Mechanical Works

Origin Yachts are pleased to offer “Bonkers”, a 1995 Sunseeker Hawk 27, an iconic British-built performance boat renowned for its sleek lines, exhilarating handling, and timeless Sunseeker design. Combining offshore capability with head-turning style, the Hawk 27 remains a favourite among enthusiasts seeking a true driver’s boat.

Powered by a VW Cummins 3.0L V6 diesel engine producing 260HP, with approximately 465 hours run, she delivers strong, efficient performance paired with the reliability of diesel power. Fitted with a Bravo III sterndrive, she benefits from excellent grip, improved handling, and confident manoeuvrability. The inclusion of VAG-COM diagnostics allows for accurate engine monitoring and ease of maintenance.
Significantly, “Bonkers” has benefitted from recent mechanical works, including new injectors, fuel rail sensors, and fuel pump, alongside a fully serviced drive with new bellows, seals, and cone clutch, offering added confidence and reduced immediate ownership costs.
