In Build: Hatteras GT70 sportfish Yacht

Hatteras GT70 Sportfish Yacht​

Hatteras is progressing well with the construction of the Hatteras GT70 sportfish motoryacht. She is a latest model in the GT series and is expected to make a big splash when she debuts at the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show (FLIBS) later this year. "We are making great progress", says Dennis Barker, Hatteras GT Construction Manager. "This week the 2600BHP MTU engines were set for the final finish. We chose to use an upgraded engine on this model, intended for more horsepower and speed, something our customers have been looking for. However, we do have the option to use the standard CAT C-32A 1900 horsepower. Both engines are ideal for covering vast distances- for those weekend trips with the family to the Bahamas or extended fishing tournaments ready to endure any type of seas," he continued.

She will be a powerful sportfish yacht but equally she will be a comfortable and luxurious home. The Hatteras GT70 is expected to provide accommodation for guests in five staterooms with most of the rooms having their own bathroom. Hatteras team members diligently worked with existing GT customers to perfect the styling of the new GT70. All have contributed useful feedback making the GT70 an impressive design, made to out-perform other models in the market with warm and luxurious interiors to match. "We want to give it a smarter and more sophisticated look but one in which people could walk around in shorts and bathing suits after a day of fishing and not feel out of place. We are going back to our traditional roots by using classic teak interiors, clean lines juxt-a-posed with modern and innovative products and materials incorporating lively regional North Carolina artwork."
