If for the lenght you mean 49.80m (164ft), my guess would be:

1) Phryne
2) Perseus
3) Aurora
4) ...Is a Rose

All sisterships from Perini Navi!

I agree. The 28 was, I believe the smallest production Hatt. Of course, there may have been some custom dinghy or launch at some point.

You are probably thinking of a different name but the first boats in the Sunseeker range (20 and 23) was called Sunseekers. With an s. The first model after the s disappeared was probably the 28 Offshore. (Builder was Poole Powerboats).

You are right, the first model with the Sunseekers name was a 23, the Daycab 23.

Poole Powerboats became Sunseeker/s

Before this they were Friars Cliff Marine building in plywood. The Sunseekers 23 had a hull very much reminding of a Coronet 21 DC and a superstructure very much reminding of a Fjord 21 Holiday/Weekender...

Q. What is the smallest original Sunseeker built, name and size?
