HERITAGE WITH A NEW BEGINNING
When the first Hatteras splashed in 1959 it forever changed what the world could expect from a sportfishing boat. In fact, the Knit Wits was the first fiberglass boat over 40’. From this landmark beginning, innovation and performance have informed every chapter of Hatteras’ storied history.
This legacy—and the pride and craftsmanship upon which it has been built—was central to our purchase of Hatteras. When the White River Marine Group bought the brand in May of 2021, we welcomed one of the finest teams of boat builders in the world. We also welcomed a proud history of innovation—one that matches our own.
We are hard at work charting the next chapter of Hatteras. Full of pride and optimism, it is our commitment that what comes next can influence the industry as profoundly as the first Hatteras once did. This is what we mean by, “Heritage with a new beginning.”
FOR 60 YEARS, THE ULTIMATE EXPERIENCE ON THE WATER.
A Hatteras Yacht does not aspire to offer a luxury. That is simply where we begin. It is beyond that point – and within the experience each voyage offers – that you begin to understand the true Hatteras difference. That difference, for over half a century, has allowed Hatteras to stand as the benchmark of quality and innovation to which all others aspire.
Willis Slane envisioned a fishing boat strong enough to withstand the waves off Cape Hatteras, where his prey of choice, the marlin, grow as big as the swells.
Building a legend.
Two strong currents collide near Cape Hatteras: pride and perseverance. We’re a product of the storied coastal waters from which we borrow our name. Unforgiving seas where, for hundreds of years, dreams were sacrificed and legends born. So when others say we’re obsessed with over-engineering every detail, we know it is simply the right way to build a yacht. The uncompromising union of inspired design, breakthrough innovation and unmatched craftsmanship. Our commitment began 60 years ago when Hatteras founder, Willis Slane, envisioned a new breed of fishing boat. One strong enough to tame the waves off Cape Hatteras. What followed was the birth of a legend. Beginning with the Knit Wits, the 41-foot fiberglass yacht that revolutionized the industry, Hatteras served notice that our yachts would now be the standard to which all others were judged – above and below the waterline.
From that initial breakthrough vessel to each innovative yacht that has followed through the decades, Hatteras has offered a level of craftsmanship focused on perfecting every detail and over delivering on every expectation. When Hatteras began, some asked why our yachts were made this way. These days, they just want to know how. There is an undaunted spirit in the Hatteras brand. You can see it in the obsessive work of the men and women who pour their talent and heart into building each legendary vessel. You can feel it in the way the Hatteras hull cuts confidently through waters that lesser boats dare not enter. But more than anything, you can witness it inside the ambitious souls who make Hatteras an expression of their own drive for adventure. Those who are unwilling to compromise and determined to push boundaries. So, for all those who celebrate a life without limits, we welcome you aboard.

- Hatteras Yachts
by David Pascoe
A long with Bertram and Hinckley, Hatteras has the distinction of being one of the first three production fiberglass boat builders to start up in around 1960. Oddly enough all three survive today, although Bertram may yet go by the wayside. The company was started in 1959 by North Carolina knitting mill owner Willis Slane who, as word has it, just wanted to build a good strong boat for himself for fishing the outer banks. What followed is one of the unparalleled success stories of the fiberglass boat building industry.
Oddly enough, of the three major startups in around 1960 - Bertram, Hinckely and Hatteras - the former are know for producing boat hulls that almost never blister. Hatteras should have applied for a patent on the blistering process, for they were one of the worst offenders. Most likely this is because Hatteras has always painted their boats and has used low quality gelcoats that are prone to blistering, as well as lower quality resins, for gel coat alone does not account for the problem.
For the most part, Hatteras built balsa cored boats. In earlier years, up through about 1980, the hulls were solid glass, and then cored hull sides appeared. Decks and house tops have always been balsa cored. In fact, were it not for Hatteras, Baltec would probably not be in business today. If you want to know how good balsa is as a core material, try to find a Hatteras with a core problem. Out of thousands of boats produced, there are only a few. And speaking of balsa, if you've ever noticed that Hatteras yachts are notably quieter inside than most others, that's because of the wonderful acoustic properties of balsa.
When it comes to building good quality, consistent and reasonably priced motor yachts, no one had been able to hold a candle to Hatteras. Unlike Bertram, Hatteras recognized that wives often controlled the checkbook in the family, and didn't make the mistake of forgetting this important marketing factor like Bertram did. Thus, when the recession of '89 struck, Hatteras was at least poised to survive it, whereas Bertram had locked themselves into the sport fishing market exclusively, with their ugly formica interiors, and manly appointments. Thus, they went down with the end of the free-spending era of the 1980's. But were it not for the parent company's deep pockets, even Hatteras probably wouldn't have survived, for large boat sales were almost nonexistent for three long years.
Yet Hatteras has since abandoned a major part of the market that they had filled for so long, the medium size sport fisherman and motor yachts of a type that was renowned for their sea keeping abilities, having been designed by the famous designer Jack Hargrave. Two prominent examples of which are the 45 Convertible and 43 motor yacht. Today, the smallest boat they make is a fifty footer priced at well over one million dollars. And with Bertram not gaining much attention in the mid size range either, the days when we had a few good quality, rugged offshore type boats to choose from are over. All we are left with is an aging fleet of older Hatterai and Bertrams. The Bertram fleet once consisted of 21, 25, 26, 28, 30, 31, 33, 35, 37, 38, 42, 43, and 46 foot models. All that's left is are outrageously priced 36 and 39 footers which are rarely seen on the waterfront these days.
Unfortunately, no one has rushed in to fill the void created by the withdrawal of these two companies. Oh, sure a few have tried, but the most recent offerings don't even come close to duplicating these legends. So why did Hatteras abandon this market? Or why isn't Bertram doing well with their three boats under 50 feet? In a word, cost and lower profit margins.
To produce boats of this quality today simply costs more than the market will bear. Plus, they probably can't compete with the lower cost price leaders since fewer and fewer people are willing to pay the freight for better quality. Boats have gotten too fancy as people demand more and more amenities, more plush interiors, more appliances, electronics and whatnot. When you add up the cost of all this, and factor in the additional cost factor of substantially higher quality structures and systems, it's not hard to see how good quality boats quickly exceed the reach of most of those who desire them.
But, there is an additional factor as well, which is that the design of a good sea boat is not amenable to the creation of the vast interior spaces that people want today. Boat owners willingly sacrifice sea keeping ability for interior space. Mom takes one look at any good sea boat and says, "But it's so small inside! That Sea Ray was twice as big." Yeah, Mom, it is. but you can't shove a wide flat surface against an oncoming wave and not end up getting splattered against a bulkhead. There's no way you're going to take a Sea Ray to sea as you would a Hatteras. Mom doesn't want to go to sea anyway. She'd prefer to stay lashed to the dock, close to the swimming pool and tennis courts. And that's why we don't have any more 32, 34, 36, 37, 38, 53, 43, 45, 46, or 48 foot Hatterases anymore. People want floating condos, and the market will always give them what they want so long as enough of them want it. But there aren't enough people that want good sea boats.
So, until people decide either that they're tired of beating their brains out in floating condos, or get tired of staying tied to the dock, or just puttering around in protected waters, or they stop demanding the utmost in luxury, (I'm not holding my breath) the days of the middle class Hatteras are over.
Sad, but very true.

The Hatteras 58 LRC: Now and Again
- By Dudley Dawson
- Updated: October 4, 2007
Twenty-five years is a long time for a naval architect to wait for a sea trial. I may have waited longer if my old friend Bill Beardslee hadn’t invited me to join him aboard a Hatteras 58 LRC.
Bill called me a few years ago and asked about the boat. He was ready to retire, sell his Michigan boat yard and buy a cruising yacht, and the Hatteras was high on his list. Jack Hargrave had designed her in the mid-1970s, when I was his vice president. Naturally, my friend wanted an informed opinion before signing the papers.
The boat had been out of production since 1985, but Bill knew of a well-maintained late model. The 58 LRC, designed in response to the fuel shortages of that era, has a full-displacement hull form. Standard power is a pair of Detroit Diesel 4-71N engines, enough to push the boat to its hull speed of 10 knots. The boat Bill was considering had the optional Detroit 6-71N diesels and a bit of margin for keeping the speed up in head seas. After our chat, Bill made the boat his own, and he and his wife, Susan, set out on the cruise of a lifetime.
They picked up the boat in Florida and, after seeing the cannon-topped grave of Otway Burns, privateer, in the Old Burying Grounds of Beaufort, North Carolina, christened her Snapdragon after Burns’ ship. They spent their first year cruising the Great Lakes, the East Coast, Florida and the Bahamas. Last spring, they shipped Snapdragon to Vancouver and headed north to Alaska.
On their way back, Bill gave me another call and invited me to join them on their way to Vancouver.
Of course, I jumped at the chance for the exceptional cruise. What a wonderful opportunity to check out a boat whose birth I had witnessed a quarter-century ago, to see how she’s held up and to decide what I might be tempted to redesign were Snapdragon mine.
We flew into Prince Rupert in early September and boarded Snapdragon for the southbound leg to Bella Bella. Devoting nine days to a trip that takes less than an hour by plane let us appreciate every one of the thousand waterfalls at our leisure. In Grenville Channel, the cruise ship Statendam hurried by on her way to Alaska’s Glacier Bay. Her thousands of unknowing passengers had missed the majestic splendor of British Columbia’s Fiordland Park, the serenity of nature as bears fed on salmon in Khutze Inlet and the quirky graffiti that adorned the tiny tin-roof shack that passed for a spa at Bishop Bay Hot Springs.
They had also missed the tiny entrance to Bottleneck Inlet, a cove off Finlayson Channel. It could grace an Absolut ad without any photo retouching. Taking breakfast alfresco on a brisk morning as the fog lifted, we enjoyed warm, homemade cereal on the flying bridge as bald eagles passed so closely overhead we could hear the sound of their broad, powerful wings.
As unforgettable as the scenery was, I am, after all, a naval architect. As we traveled south, I noticed what was new and what was old. I found pleasing assurances that yacht design has indeed improved over the years, and I made some mental decisions about changes I’d make were I designing her today.
High on my list was larger heads. Oh, for just a few more inches! A 27-inch shower, and 3 inches from toilet to bulkhead, is not enough. Adults of average size can’t shower in a 27-inch stall without banging their elbows; 36 inches would be wonderful, but uncommon.
Speaking of heads, the ones aboard the LRC are intended for remote cruising, not tying up at a yacht club. This means anchoring and running off the inverter whenever possible to prevent the noise of a generator, and drawing heavily from the water tanks. A larger water tank would be an asset because with so much time spent on inverter power, Snapdragon’s watermaker has little time to keep up with water usage. An interesting bit of irony in modern boats is that water tanks seem to be getting smaller because most owners tie up in a slip and use shorepower for the watermaker.
Built-in stowage for fenders and lines would have been great. Snapdragon has several deck boxes, but why not have lockers? Home designers rejected freestanding wardrobes for closets decades ago. A little more inside stowage, particularly book shelves, wouldn’t hurt, either.
A previous owner, during a galley makeover, took care of one thing I’d definitely update. In place of the single rectangular sink all the way outboard, a pair of round sinks had been installed in the after corner, yielding more usable counter space and making the galley much more workable.
The starboard stateroom is a tiny space originally fitted with a high single berth for crew, but Bill and Susan, both able navigators and helmsmen, operate Snapdragon themselves. Bill is also devoted to maintaining the boat in Bristol condition (I say diligent, Susan says obsessive), so he had already commandeered the little cabin as a workshop. The berth’s mattress was gone, and the bed board served nicely as a workbench, conveniently located just outside the engineroom door.
High on Bill’s wish list was a second engineroom door at the master stateroom foyer. It would have been so easy on the drawing board, but with all the equipment installed on the bulkhead, it would be a real job now. Bill serves as his own engineer, so such a door would make nightly shutdowns and periodic checks of the engineroom easier. It would also provide a second emergency escape route for all the spaces belowdecks.
In addition to the 58 LRC, Hatteras built 42, 48 and 65 LRCs. The 65 LRC was similar to the 58 in style and arrangement, but offered more room at an accordingly higher price. Though all the LRCs are out of production, there is an active Hatteras LRC Owners’ Association. When I contacted the Owners’ Association to get another take on 58 LRCs, I was put in touch with Kirk Irwin.
After 13 years on a 42 LRC, Irwin and his wife recently moved up to a 58 LRC. She is hull number two, built in 1975 and not given the care Snapdragon enjoyed over the years. The Irwins are in the process of a major refit, and they have a longer wish list.
The after bulkhead in their saloon will be opened up and the afterdeck enclosed, creating more interior space. There will be a new galley and a soft flying bridge enclosure. They have already consolidated many of the through-hulls, changed the MSD’s from salt to fresh water and added a fuel transfer pump. The Irwins are happy with the 4-71 engines, but would like a bow thruster to improve maneuverability for docking in a blow. The structural changes are a matter of individual preferences, while the changes to the machinery and plumbing bring the boat up to modern standards.
The Irwins would also like a bigger cockpit and a bigger pilothouse, but that will have to wait for a bigger boat. Though the trip on Bill’s Hatteras proved designers have come a long way, there are no miracles.

Hatteras Yachts
Located in New Bern, North Carolina, Hatteras Yachts manufactures luxury production and semi-custom sportfishing yachts and motor yachts up to 30.48 metres in length.
History of Hatteras Yachts
Hatteras Yachts is a pioneer in the manufacture of luxury yachts built of GRP. The company got its start in 1959, when wooden boat construction was still the norm, after textile manufacturer Willis Slane and a group of investors hired naval architect Jack Hargrave to design a yacht that could stand up to the challenging conditions of the waters off North Carolina’s Cape Hatteras. The Hatteras 41 Convertible Yacht Fisherman Knit Wits was the first production yacht of its size to be built of fiberglass.
The success of Knit Wits enabled Hatteras Yachts to develop a series of production Convertibles – sportfishing yachts that are equally capable of competing in fishing tournaments and carrying owners in comfort on offshore voyages. Hatteras also launched a series of semi-custom luxury motor yachts that placed a focus more on cruising than on sportfishing.
Ownership of Hatteras Yachts has changed ownership several times, most recently in 2013 when an affiliate of Versal Capital Management, LLC, acquired the company, along with CABO Yachts, from the Brunswick Corporation.
Notable Hatteras Yachts
In 2013, Hatteras Yachts launched its flagship, the first hull in the shipyard’s 100 Raised Pilothouse Series, the 31-metre Mr. Loui . Designed by Hatteras’ in-house team in collaboration with T4Design by Enrico Gobbi, the Hatteras 100 RP has bold exterior styling, accommodations for eight guests in four staterooms, and a maximum speed of 25 knots.

Hatteras Yachts: Your Resource Guide To Buying A New Boat
By Rob Bowman | Posted On Dec 27, 2018 Updated On Jun 03, 2020
For the last 60 years, Hatteras Yachts has been "obsessively over-building" every model simply because this is in the DNA of the company. It is a result of living in a part of the world that can produce some of the angriest seas around, namely Cape Hatteras to which they attribute their name. The Hatteras factory was built in New Bern, North Carolina right off of the Atlantic Coast and near some of the most turbulent offshore waters on the Eastern Seaboard. It was the vision of Willis Slane, the founder of Hatteras Yachts, to design and construct a yacht that would be uncompromising in its build, unrelenting in its performance, and unmatched in its craftsmanship. The rough Cape Hatteras seas were often too much for Slane's wooden boat to handle safely offshore. Each vessel would need to be built to such standards if it were to challenge the open ocean in search of billfish. Willis Slane, who had a strong passion for big game fishing, hired the young Jack Hargrave to create a boat that was both functional for fishing and family cruising, but also durable enough to withstand the angry seas off of Cape Hatteras.
The first Hatteras built was aptly named Knit Wits and was called a "Convertible", due to the open-air, upper helm station and its ability to transform into a family-friendly cruising boat. Knit Wits was important not just for Hatteras, but also for the entire boating industry as it challenged other boat builders to improve their designs.
Today, Hatteras Yachts is one of the most iconic sportfish and motor yacht builders in the world with models from 45 to over 100 feet. Hatteras even recently resurrected Cabo Yachts with a new design for one of the most popular models ever built, the 41 Open Express .
In this Hatteras Yachts resource guide for new owners, we will touch on the available models being offered by Hatteras, what makes a Hatteras special, a look at the pre-owned Hatteras market, and tips on what to expect as the owner of one. The team at United Yacht Sales has spent hours at the Hatteras factory learning about the product and have the expertise to help you find the right model for your needs. Give us a call today at (609) 780-0309 to start your journey on owning a new or pre-owned Hatteras today.
What makes a Hatteras Yacht special?
" People think we are crazy because our boats are a little bit heavier, but it's the strongest, most durable hull in the industry ." - Lucas Harth, Hatteras Construction Manager
Hatteras was special from day 1 considering the first boat they ever built was the first fiberglass boat over 40 feet ever to be designed. Decades later, Hatteras continues to be a trend-setter with the launch of the brand new GT65 Carolina . The GT65 will be the industry's first hull to be infused with the stringer system to make on single part, resulting in reduced weight and an even stronger hull. It's this commitment to hull design and construction that makes each Hatteras special. Today, Hatteras is one of the only boat builders in the world that uses a solid fiberglass bottom. Competing manufacturers substitute a core or wood bottom to reduce cost, but at the same this this decreases its overall strength and durability. While a Hatteras may be slightly heavier than similar models built elsewhere (The Hatteras GT59 at 59'9" weighs 89,000lbs while the Viking 58C at 58' 11" weighs just over 80,000lbs) the comfort at cruising speed, and even at WOT, is noticeable. Additionally, the new models are designed with a convex and modified-v hull shape as well as double chine and side "step-outs". This gives each Hatteras the best performance possible under any sea condition and ensures that everyone on board will stay dry and comfortable. The interior space also benefits from this as it gives more volume to each living space inside. Hatteras' commitment to building a boat worthy of battling the waters off of Cape Hatteras is apparent in every sportfish and motor yacht they build.

Video: The Hatteras Experience
Construction and design aren't the only reasons Hatteras has separated itself from the competition. They have also invested heavily in the owner's experience. Recently, Hatteras launched a complete ship management control system called Hattcon in select models. This yacht automation system has been fully integrated into a proprietary new interface that allows you to control everything from lighting on board, video streaming, AC & heat regulation, and all of the boat's montoring systems right through an app downloaded on your apple device. The new system was recently integrated into the Hatteras M90 Panacera , making it the new standard in yachting when paired with Hatteras' seakeeping abilities and high-quality fit and finishes. Below is an example of what some of the Hattcon interfaces look like:

You've Decided You Want To Buy A Hatteras Yacht. What's Next?
There are many factors to consider when purchasing a new or slightly used Hatteras Yacht. What size should you get and what is your budget? Will there be a boat in stock or do I need to order one? If I order one, how long will that take? Do I need a captain or can I drive it myself? The best advice we can possibly give you at this stage of the process is to consult with an experienced United Yacht broker who knows the Hatteras market and can guide you through the process of determining what the best fit is for your needs. A thorough consultation about all of the steps in the process, what you need to determine you want as the buyer, and what decisions need to be made to help the factory execute on their commitment will help you feel more confident and comfortable with this important investment you are making for your lifestyle.
1.) Where can I physically get on to a Hatteras and learn about the different models? Boat Shows are a great place to spend time with an authorized factory representative and crawl on board each of the different models. Hatteras typically brings almost all of their new boat models to the Fort Lauderdale Boat Show in November and the Miami Boat Show in February. Regional shows like the Palm Beach Show tend to have some new models there, but not as many as the major shows. If you're serious about owning a Hatteras, this is truly the best way to get to know the boats. There are also factory tours where you can meet your United sales professional at the factory to see how each boat is built, meet with the design team, tour the wood-working facility, and see the different phases of production. Finally, the "Hatteras Club" is held once per year, generally at the end of Summer in South Florida. Potential owners are invited to this exclusive event for two days of sea trials, tours of each model, and introductions to the Hatteras team.

2.) How financially strong is Hatteras as a company? It's no secret that Hatteras struggled through the economic recession from 2008 through 2011 like many other boat builders. It was in the wake of this event that Hatteras and Cabo were purchased from Brunswick Corporation by Versa Capital Management in 2013. Versa, based in Philadelphia, is a private equity investment firm with over $1 billion in assets which includes companies like Eastern Mountain Sports and Bob's Stores. Versa has injected Hatteras with enough capital to invest in new models (the Hatteras GT59 is a great example which will debut at the upcoming Miami Yacht Show) and build stock boats without waiting on customer orders. In other words, Hatteras Yachts has the financial backing to continue building the highest quality sportfishing and motor yachts for a very long time.
3.) I already own a boat and I need to sell it before I purchase a Hatteras. What do I do? You have three options - trade it in, sell it yourself, or list it with a professional yacht broker . The Hatteras factory has taken trades in the past and would need to evaluate your boat. Typically the trade in value you receive on a boat, no matter what company you work with, is going to be less money than if you sold it outright. Selling it yourself will recoup the most money but will be hard to do without access to putting it on the industry MLS database and Yachtworld. Selling it yourself is also a commitment in time as potential buyers will want to see it and sea trial it, sometimes multiple times. Hiring a professional United Yacht broker to list and sell your yacht means that your boat has access to the largest network of boat buyers and sellers in the world. With more than 150 brokers worldwide, no other firm has the number of team members we do that work together to sell your yacht . With our custom marketing program to help sell your existing boat quickly and for the highest price possible, you will be enjoying your new Hatteras in no time.
4.) Do I need to hire a captain? This is a conversation that your United Yacht broker will have with you. Whether or not you need a licensed captain depends on what Hatteras model you choose and the experience you have behind the helm. The new Cabo 41 Express or the Hatteras GT45X are greatly entry-level sportfishing boats that are perfect for an owner/operator. Once you move up to some of the larger motor yachts like the M75 Panacera or a bigger convertible like the GT70 , a captain and crew may become a necessity. Captains can also be hired to professionally maintain your Hatteras from making sure it gets necessary service, cleaning it regularly, running the engines consistently, and keeping it in optimal shape. This makes it easier to sell when you're ready and can demand more of an asking price on the open market. United brokers typically have relationships with captains that can benefit our customers when one is needed. There are also web services like Boat Captain's Directory for example that can help you find a captain, however they will not have been vetted by our team.
5.) Why are new Hatteras Yachts so expensive? Hatteras Yachts are among the highest quality, best built boats in the industry and are not a lower tier brand. There is more that goes into the construction of a Hatteras along with the premium components on board that demand and deserve a higher price tag. From the vinylester resin infusion process to the high-level of quality control that goes into each vessel, there is simply more time and more expensive materials than less expensive competitive brands that don't deliver the same experience as a Hatteras. We recommend watching the BoatTest video called " Hatteras Yachts - Why So Expensive ".
What Hatteras Model Should I Choose?nbsp;
The first question you need to ask yourself when trying to decide what Hatteras you want to buy is whether or not you want to fish. The Hatteras GT series is widely known as some of the best sport fishing yachts built today and compete in the major Billfishing tournaments. While the Hatteras sportfish can also be used for pleasure cruising due to their spacious interior accommodations, the Hatteras motor yacht Panacera series is for the more traditional yachtsman that values entertaining and extended cruising on board their yacht.
Hatteras Sportfish :
As mentioned earlier, the Hatteras GT45X is the entry-level model for the brand which also has three variations: the GT45X Open , the GT45X Flybridge , and the GT45X Sport Tower . Each option is powered with twin Cat C-12.9 diesel engines with the option to increase your horsepower to 850 MHP for an exhilarating performance. Hatteras builds five additional models from the GT 54 up to the GT70 which is the flagship model of the sportfishing series. The newest models are the GT 59 and GT65 Carolina , both of which benefit from the patented Hatteras hull design and reach speeds in excess of 40 knots.
Marlin Magazine Boat Review of the Hatteras GT45X
BoatTest.com Review of the Hatteras GT70
Hatteras Motor Yachts :
Hatteras may have started with building high-quality sportfishermen, but they have also become one of the top motor yacht builders in America today. The Panacera series begins at 60-feet with the M60 which Hatteras describes as "sleek, sporty, and deceptively spacious". The fully-fiberglass hull is stronger than normal thus providing more available space and larger windows for the interior of the yacht. The Hatteras M75 and M90 Panacera complete the model series in spectacular fashion. Each model features a stunning moon roof, massive flybridge space for entertaining, multiple relaxation zones, and accommodations that rival any competitive brand. Hatteras also recently announced plans to build a 105' Raised Pilothouse Motor Yacht which will be their largest resin-infused hull ever built.
The latest motor yacht model from the iconic builder, the M98 Panacera , might only be 100-feet in length overall, but she was designed like a superyacht. Offered in either an open flybridge, partially enclosed skylounge, or fully enclosed bridge, the personalization options are seemingly endless. Built for both cruising and formal entertaining, the outdoor social spaces rival any luxury European yacht while the Hatteras fully fiberglass hull performs tremendously. There are multiple propulsion options as well from CAT and MTU from 1,600 BHP to 2,600 BHP diesel engines.
Boattest Review of the Hatteras M60 Panacera
Power & Motor Yacht Test The Hatteras M90 Panacera
Why does Hatteras use Caterpillar engines for their new models? From the GT45X to the M90 Panacera, every Hatteras is powered by a Caterpillar (CAT) engine . It's widely known that CAT marine engines set the standard for quality, reliability and performance even under strenuous decisions. With Hatteras having a slightly heavier hull than the competition, it was important for Hatteras designers to still be able to reach certain speeds at cruise and WOT. The new GT59 for example is powered with twin CAT C-32A diesel engines which offer the option to increase horsepower to 1,622 MHP. Even though she weighs 89,000 pounds, the GT59 is still able to attain a top speed over 40 knots. So, performance is important to Hatteras which was a main reason for choosing Cat to power each boat, but the after-service focus on the customer is what also sets CAT apart. CAT Concierge Service puts their marine engine professionals literally a phone call away for general maintenance and service questions as well as factory access to get issues fixed quickly. The extended service coverage offered by CAT also gives Hatteras owners peace of mind when it comes to the unknown maintenance issues that could potentially arise.
Here is a video walk-around on the CAT C-32A engines that power the GT59 and other models:
You've Looked At Your Options And Decided A Pre-Owned Hatteras Is The Best Choice. What Now?

Hatteras redesigns their 80′ motoryacht model
Emerging from the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show 2012 comes news of a redesign of the popular 80′ Hatteras Motoryacht model. The new 80′ Hatteras will retain the key elements that have made her one of the brand’s most successfully selling yachts only offering a new and improved layout including additional standards and options. The original 80′ Hatteras MY debuted in 2003 and since then 45 have been sold according to their director of marketing. Some of the exterior modifications include the relocation of the radar arch on the flybridge which gives the yacht a sporty profile. Centered between two horizontal port lights on each side are large port lights that offer a change in styling when compared to the vertical port lights on previous models. Furthermore the new exterior has a riding seat on the bow that comes standard which offers additional lounging area. Inside you will find a variety of changes to the layout from the saloon through the galley and in the staterooms. Now you will find side-by-side berths in lieu of bunks in the starboard stateroom. Also, like the larger 82′ Hatteras, the crew quarters now has a lounge space which makes for a comfortable retreat for your crew to have some space.
