Sunreef 80 Video Review: The Flagship of Our Sailing Sunreef Trio
By the YachtWay editorial deskUpdated October 2026Video walkthrough6 min read
This is one of three boats in our Sunreef comparison, filmed at Cannes in 2026. The video starts at the beginning, and the 80 section runs from 29:19 to 43:23. The boat we walked is a Sunreef 80 Eco, the largest of the three sailing catamarans. She has a platform that holds the tender, a flybridge with a skylight, a salon with a galley behind glass, three identical VIP cabins, an owner's suite and a separate crew galley.
The biggest of the three, and the most social
The 80 takes the Sunreef layout to its largest size. The salon seats eight to ten for dinner, a high-low TV doubles as a counter so guests can watch the chef, and the flybridge has a full-beam lounge bed and a skylight over the helm to watch the sails. Below, three VIP cabins and an owner's suite host eight guests, while the crew have their own galley and quarters.
What stood out on board

- A galley behind glassGlass keeps smells in, and pot holders stop pans sliding when heeling.
- A TV that becomes a counterLower it and guests can watch the chef at work.
- Three matching VIP cabinsEach with a walk-in closet and a rain shower.
- A crew galleyWith a cooktop, fridges and a washer and dryer.

The Sunreef 80 is the most complete of the three. The salon and its glass-screened galley are great for entertaining, the flybridge is a second living room, and the three VIP cabins mean no guest feels second best. With a separate crew galley and a full set of toys, she is built for long crewed cruises and charters.
