Building the Luxury
Sunseeker Philippines is the official distributor of Sunseeker luxury motor yachts in the Philippines
Sunseeker Philippines office is located in the vibrant port of Subic Bay Philippines. Subic Bay is a bustling deep sea port and arguably the boating capital of the Philippines. Subic Bay has the largest marina in the country which is named Subic Bay Yacht Club with a five minutes cruise away to Sunseeker Philippines/HYS Shipyard. In addition, Subic Bay is the gateway and you’re a day cruise to some of the most stunning water in the world which would be the the island of Palawan including the famous destinations of Coron and El Nido.
HYS Yachts implements a carefully studied process for each project. Each phase is closely monitored by the stakeholder, managers, and the team. A computerized project monitoring system helps each members to collaborate and update the task, status, and scheduling. This system and project management tools assist the company to finish the projects on time.
The most critical task for any HYS Yachts conversion project comes at the very beginning: accurately identifying the specific lifestyle – or “personality” – the owner would like his or her completed project to convey.
After all design requirements have been satisfied, and the project’s costing has been approved, the strip-out, structural rebuild phase, adding custom functionalities begins.
A place for work. A place for play. A place for rest. Overall, an opulent environment for luxurious living – exactingly-appointed and designed with maximum comfort and usability in mind.

We can’t imagine any greater complement than a project that had been graciously referred to us by one of our previous clients.

When she emerged from our yards in mid 2011, the newly re-christened Ark Angel boasted a fully restyled body kit, two heli-decks (one large enough for the new owners Agusta 109, the other for touch-and-go passenger service), a sleek, contemporary stern unit, new side coamings, and a spacious open-air sun deck complete with salt-water jacuzzi.

After retirement, her new American owner appointed HYS Yachts to convert this former fishing research vessel into a long-range, family-friendly expeditionary yacht with just the right combination of luxury and recreational appointments to keep the adults comfortable… and the children happily occupied.

After only 10-months in the HYS refit facility, the Western Isles re-entered international waters as a sleek, modern, and truly world-class luxury yacht complete with a plush

After a rugged career as a commercial fishing vessel working in and around the waters of New Zealand, REN ROSE (ex. Mutual Enterprise) has been transformed into a comfortable, family-styled luxury yacht capable of taking her owner and guests anywhere throughout Southeast Asia and beyond.

Knowing that this sturdy, immaculately maintained vessel would be perfectly suited for a long-range luxury explorer conversion, HYS purchased her shortly after being released from government service
Our team successfully finished large-scale projects. It is our goal to provide great satisfaction for our clients by delivering and finishing their boat on time; with competitive quality, and workmanship

I am very happy with the workmanship and professionalism that HYS Yachts brought to my project and would happily work with them again if the opportunity arose.

Over the years, I have had rather a lot of experience with various yards around the world, and I can honestly say that it is a rarity to find a yard that is so organized, competent and skilled. Now we are able to begin our adventures with a yacht in which we have total confidence.

The transformation that HYS and their extraordinarily talented Filipino work force has accomplished is nothing short of stunning: a functionally impressive and physically beautiful piece of work with a graceful and modernized exterior design, extremely comfortable and fully customized interior/exterior living spaces, and much more.

Everything was taken care of within the specified time and budget. Mark made sure that most jobs were quoted on, so there was no gray area. I would not hesitate to recommend the HYS team in any task they are willing to take on.

My experience with HYS was fantastic… so much so, that after throughly enjoying Blue Hunter for over 16 months, I’ve decided to sell her in order have HYS complete another yacht conversion project for me on an even larger vessel.

All work performed on the Galapagos was carried out on schedule and to my specifications. In many ways, the end result exceeded my expectations. It is my personal opinion that anyone interested in a major yacht conversion need look no further than HYS.

The end result was stunning, absolutely perfect for my recreational and entertaining needs, and quite inexpensive compared to pre-built yachts I was initially interested in.

The attention to detail displayed by HYS personnel was truly amazing. In particular, was their superb administrative oversight and meticulous project management.
