Hatteras had a great success at the 2005 Miami International Boat Show, thanks to a well-received selection of new models. Spurred by the debut of the 64 Motor Yacht and announcements of the forthcoming 64- and 75-foot Convertibles, demand for Hatteras product escalated to a new high for the annual Miami sales event.

Hatteras debuted its newest product, the 64 Motor Yacht, on the boat show's opening day. Two upcoming flybridge models, the 64 Convertible and 75 Convertible, were also successfully previewed to dealers and customers at the show. These new product introductions come fast on the heels of previously successful introductions within the past year, including the 68 Convertible and 80 Motor Yacht Sky Lounge.

Hatteras Yachts, a unit of Brunswick Corporation, is recognized as a world leader in the construction of convertible sportfishing and luxury motoryachts. Based in New Bern, N.C., Hatteras pioneered the production of large offshore fiberglass powerboats with the introduction of its first model in 1959. Hatteras builds luxury motoryachts from 64 to 100 feet and sportfishing convertible yachts from 50 to 90 feet.

HATTERAS 64 MOTOR YACHT

It is a debutant of International Maiami Boat Show 2005. The Hatteras 64 Motor Yacht features sleek, contemporary exterior styling matched to a luxurious interior finished to the industry's highest standards. High performance is assured by a base engine package of 1,000-hp CAT C-18s, which provide a comfortable 22- to 24-knot cruise at 2100 RPM and a fast top-end of 26 to 28 knots.

Like its predecessors, the 54 and 68 Convertibles, the 64 features an unprecedented array of sophisticated features and key dimensions that lead the industry, as well as breakthrough designs in hull form, ship's systems and running gear. The new 64 Convertible offers accommodations unsurpassed for luxurious comfort. The 64's standard 3/3 arrangement consists of three staterooms and three heads, with the only full-beam master stateroom in its size range. Throughout, the emphasis is on spacious and luxurious accommodations ideal for relaxation or entertaining.

With more than 150 square feet of area, the salon exudes the warmth of genuine American black cherry paneling, pre-filled and finished in high gloss or satin. To port, a custom U-shaped sofa provides ample storage underneath. To starboard, a 42-inch plasma TV with surround sound can fill the salon with entertainment. Linear valences distribute cooled air evenly throughout the salon and galley, without the hot and cold spots associated with overhead vents.

One step up from the salon, the 64's galley features solid-surface countertops, under-counter refrigeration, a four-burner ceramic cook top, garbage disposal and microwave convection oven. Opposite is a large dinette with solid-surface tabletop.

Down below, the full-beam configuration of the master suite offers an unparalleled 166 square feet of floor space. Accessed through a private foyer flanked by a full-length hanging locker, the master suite includes a king-sized berth, twin nightstands, and dressers port and starboard, plus a 20-inch LCD TV. As an option, the master can be fitted with an office overlooking the suite, or with a sofa substituted for one of the dressers.

With 74 square feet of space, the bow stateroom can be fitted either with a standard queen-sized berth with storage underneath, or with an optional queen-over-twin upper/lower arrangement. The port stateroom is fitted with twin berths, along with a hanging locker, hull-side storage and nightstand as standard. A queen-size berth with storage beneath is optional.

Finally, by foregoing the foyer entrance to the master suite, an owner can specify an optional fourth stateroom, fitted with upper and lower berths and private access to the head.

The 64 Convertible's cockpit is a full 164 square feet, loaded with features and conveniences to enhance the fishing experience. Like its 68-foot sister ship, the 64's cockpit features a mezzanine level to keep the crew comfortable and alert. Inside the mezzanine is expansive freezer and storage space; its modular design allows owners to choose their mix of freezers, livewells and insulated storage tubs. An optional full-height bait prep station with an electric grill is available in lieu of the starboard mezzanine seat. The 186-square-foot flybridge is laid out for optimum control and comfort.

The new 64 Convertible benefits from advanced technology developed for the 68 Convertible, including a passive underwater exhaust system that reduces cockpit fumes, transom buildup and cockpit noise levels.
