About Hatteras Motor Yachts

Where power and performance meet

Stating that you have a motor yacht is a bit redundant if you do not specify the type of motor that is being used. For most, the term motor yacht is associated with the inboard motor as opposed to the outboard configurations which are available for some of the yachts which are in the 40 to 60 foot range. The distinction between the outboards and the motors yachts is that this motor yacht sounds a great deal better than inboard powered boat.

Hatteras Motor Yachts

The Hatteras Motor yachts are those which are over the 60’ marker. Those which are smaller are considered either within the Hatteras sportfish category or in the Hatteras convertible category, though arguably all of these could be considered such. Depending upon the motor yacht that you choose you could end up with a vessel that has 55 thousand pounds up to one that has a few hundred thousand pounds of weight. It is not the weight which makes the motor yachts special. It is the craftsmanship and the optimization of the power on these weights which does.

The power of the Hatteras Motor Yachts

The power of the Hatteras Motor Yachts are caterpillar engines. These are the large inboard motors and so they do require their own room/space. All of the models which are offered by Hatteras allow you some customization to the inboard CATs for maximum power. On the smaller vessels the power is typically contained under the main decking. On the larger motor yachts, such as the Hatteras Panacera and the Hatteras Raised Pilothouse, the access is on the stern of the yacht. The most dedicated space for the power would be found on the Hatteras 100 as it is by far the largest.

The customizations of the Hatteras Motor yachts

Decking on the Hatteras motor yachts is wood. You do have the option of different wood types, granite tops, marble tops, carpeting options, floor layout and sleeping arrangement options on the yachts which make it suitable for even the most demanding of clients. Perhaps one of the most customizable and unique features for the Hatteras Motor Yachts for sale would be the available side balcony on the Hatteras 100’ Raised Platform MY.

Not a speed boat

The Hatteras Motor Yachts are big and have big engines, but that does not make them speed vessels. Most of the yachts which are offered do not top 20 knots. Yet, for those who with to have the cruising speed of around 10 to 15, then these are ideal. Again, the weight and the packaging play a huge factor in the top speed.

Hatteras Motor Yachts are large enough that they can be used for cruising with additional (and faster) activity boats towed along with them. Because the Hatteras are oriented to sophistication and to the slowing down and relaxation of life, the 10 to 15 knots that you will be able to maintain on most of their selection should be ample power. However, if you want a bit more push, talk to your brokerage about how you can upgrade your CATs.

Availability

Hatteras Motor Yachts for sale are quite common as the company has been around for some time. It is not uncommon to find the 1980 models and the early 1990 motor yachts in abundance. That being stated, this does not mean that those listed are in prime condition. You need to check the documentation and the warranty and maintenance reports on the vessel. 2000 models, specifically those which are after the 2014 mark, are a bit harder to come by. Pricing on the 2014 models tend to start around the 2 million dollar price range, depending of course on the size and the features which are selected, and go up from there.
