Sunseeker Usa Inc has one documented USCG recall campaign from 1996 affecting 5 units across the 42 Mustique and 46 Manhattan models.

What this means before you buy →
What to check before you buy a used Sunseeker Usa
- Verify whether your specific HIN falls within the 1996 fuel tank split campaign (960014T) if you are evaluating a 42 Mustique or 46 Manhattan from that era.
- Request documented proof that the fuel tank replacement or repair was completed if the boat was subject to the recall.
- Arrange for a marine surveyor to inspect the entire fuel system regardless of recall status, as fuel tank age and material degradation are common failure points on boats from the mid 1990s.
- Review all service records for evidence of fuel system work, leaks, or odor complaints that might indicate unresolved tank integrity issues.
