With no introduction necessary, the all-new, multi-award winning Sunseeker 65 Sport Yacht joins our expanding range of next-generation yachts.

The SkyHelm™, complete with IPS docking joystick, can be used in an upright position for low-speed manoeuvring or lowered to fall perfectly into outstretched arms when sat low in the bespoke helm seats cossetted by carbon fibre backrests and an integrated centre console. The modular layout allows for various specifications and enhancements, with space that adapts seamlessly to all kinds of socialising and adrenaline-seeking. Three cabins, including a full-beam master stateroom, can accommodate up to six guests in luxurious comfort, with a fully appointed crew cabin located forward of the garage.

Take your Sport Yacht to new heights by carrying the tender on the bathing platform and reconfiguring the vacated space as a dedicated ‘Beach Club’ – with direct sea access, bar, fridge, BBQ and free-standing seating. The perfect area for those happiest close to the water. With speeds of up to 35 knots, the 65 Sport Yacht cuts an equally impressive figure on the open water. Altogether, the experience is one of pure adrenaline, akin to driving a high-performance convertible supercar.

Reviewed: Sunseeker 65 Sport Yacht

As I ran the Sunseeker 65 Sport Yacht from what the builder calls the SkyHelm on the flybridge, one word came to mind: fun.

This yacht, powered with optional 1,000 hp Volvo Penta IPS1350 diesels paired to pod drives, streaked across the Gulf Stream’s 3- to 5-footers at just shy of 35 knots. As we left Florida in our wake, the 40-ton yacht maneuvered like a sports car. No matter how hard or fast I cranked the wheel, it just banked solidly and asked for more.

The Sunseeker 65 Sport Yacht is aptly named—for more than one reason. Designers penned the flybridge layout from a blank sheet to create a youthful, chic style. They studied today’s supercars, such as England’s 217 mph Aston Martin Valhalla. Two low-slung bucket seats are separated by a carbon-fiber, silver-lacquered console that would look at home in the latest Gulfstream G700 business-jet cockpit, right down to the throttles under the skipper’s hand.

To me, the coolest feature—an idea clearly borrowed from personal watercraft—is the steering pod that hinges up and locks in position. Yes, it has a steering wheel instead of handle bars. And, it allows the skipper to do two things: gain easy access to and from the bucket seat, and stand next to the SkyHelm, with its joystick controlling the twin pod drives and Side-Power bow thruster, providing an unrestricted view of the vessel while docking. It is a brilliant setup.

Stepping into the salon, I found coolly serene styling similar to a Cannes, France, penthouse overlooking La Croisette or a top-floor Miami suite on Biscayne Bay. Nearly 360 degrees of glass, low and comfortable furniture, and calmness exude from the smoked eucalyptus woods and nubby upholstery. The salon is designed for entertaining, with a settee to port around a folding/sliding table and a couch opposite. A notable feature is the single-level sole from the transom to the windshield, with no steps. The 7-foot-3-inch headroom adds to the feeling of spaciousness.

Aft is an optional teak hydraulic swim platform that can lift a Williams 345 SportJet. If owners don’t want the tender on the transom, they can use the garage that’s tucked in the transom; it can handle that same 11-foot-3-inch tender, with the rollers and chocks offset to port, so there is also room for Seabobs, paddleboards, dive gear or other toys.

The cockpit has a settee with a table. The yacht’s aft-galley arrangement helps the space blend with the salon. Doors framed in stainless steel slide away, and the galley’s electric window drops for pass-throughs.

The galley has a Miele three-burner cooktop, undercounter convection oven, dishwasher, ice maker, and stowage for glasses, dishes and silverware, all fiddled to prevent rattles. Rather than a full-height fridge that would block views, the 65 Sport Yacht has twin fridges under the counter to starboard.

The lower helm station has a pair of bucket seats with arms, as well as twin 15-inch Garmin displays. The design team injected a retro look on the console with round, analog gauges reminiscent of older Corvettes, and provided niceties such as stainless-steel footrests and an opening window next to the skipper.

Owners have several choices for the accommodations deck, including a galley-down layout, but I particularly liked the three-stateroom plan on this yacht. Each stateroom is en suite with Villeroy & Boch vessel sinks and Tecma heads. There is also a day head, so the staterooms remain private.

Access belowdecks is via a foyer that really should be called an atrium lobby because it is voluminous and opens to the windscreen above it. To starboard is a guest stateroom with twin berths and a full-height hanging locker (no crumpled clothes) with the en suite just forward. The VIP stateroom fills the bow with an island queen berth, drawer stowage, a hanging locker and more stowage below the berth.

The master stateroom uses the yacht’s 16-foot-8-inch beam to house a centerline berth and, on this yacht, a settee to port with a vanity/ desk. Windows with opening ports bring in light and a view, and the 6-foot-6-inch headroom adds to the airiness. One interesting option is to close off the passage to the master stateroom (this boat had a washer/dryer there) and add a desk or fourth stateroom with a bunk.

Access to the crew cabin is via a hatch from the cockpit under the bridge ladder. This cabin could be a teenage hangout; it has a single berth, sink and head, but no shower. The stairs to the bridge fold into an overhead recess.

The Sunseeker 65 Sport Yacht should prove a willing partner for whatever the mood: quiet entertaining in the cockpit and salon, gracious nights in the staterooms, or a playful romp across the ocean waves. The options are almost as endless as the horizon ahead.

Fortress of Quietude

With its resin-infused construction, the Sunseeker 65 Sport Yacht emitted nary a creak or groan while running across the lumpy Gulf Stream. Solid insulation meant that at full throttle, my decibel meter in the salon barely registered 75, which is about the level of a vacuum cleaner. With the engines off, there was no way to know if the 17 kW generator was even running without looking at the instruments. 

A Glazed Look

Sunseeker uses windows and ports to deliver light to the interior and create panoramic views from inside. Windows that are 6-by-4 feet line the salon, so seated guests have uninterrupted views on all sides. From the exterior, the glazing uses automotive technology for frameless flush mounting, turning the dark-tinted window shapes into rakish styling lines on the hull sides and house.

The Fleming 65 was introduced in mid 2005 in response to a strong demand for an intermediate Fleming between the 55 and the 75. Her layout is very similar in concept to the 55 but the 65, being around 70% larger in displacement, offers much more interior and deck space than her smaller sibling. Fleming Yachts decided to retain hull number 1 (named Venture) to evaluate her design performance as a well-found cruising yacht as well as providing a test bed for new equipment. Since commissioning in 2005 Tony Fleming has cruised VENTURE more than 60,000 miles along the West Coast of North America from La Paz, Mexico to Juneau, Alaska, back down the Coast to the Sea of Cortez, to the Galapagos Islands, through the Panama Canal, up the East Coast into the Hudson River, Erie Canal and the St. Lawrence Seaway. Along the way Tony has provided the yard with valuable feedback and suggestions that have been incorporated in the 65 production line. Thanks to Tony's extensive testing and evaluation of these refinements, several new items are now available on production models.

We are very proud that a panel of thirteen judges from the Internationally respected 'Yachts' magazine voted the Fleming 65 best yacht in her class, worldwide, for 2006. As of January 2019, 51 Fleming 65's have been built at the highly regarded Tung Hwa yard in Taiwan, which has built every Fleming yacht since they were introduced in 1985.

Overview Continued...

As with all Flemings, special attention has been paid to the ease and safety in which the heavy duty ground tackle is set and retrieved. Originally designed for the Fleming 75, the 65's anchor platform is especially large and robust. The anchor platform accepts two 132 lbs. (60Kg) Ultra anchors, each of which can be controlled by a handheld unit at the platform or by windlass controls at both pilothouse and flying bridge stations. A pair of hydraulically powered Maxwell RC12 vertical windlasses with capstans are standard equipment, as is a 300ft (91m) length of Grade-60 stainless steel chain. 

F65 Foredeck

There are port and starboard storage lockers to each side of the platform base, where salt and freshwater washdown  bibs are located as well as two, 50-amp shorepower inlets which are convenient when docking bow first.

A centerline hatch opens for access to the double chain locker, which is separated from the yacht's interior by a collision bulkhead. The locker can house two 300-foot (91m) lengths of anchor chain and several hundred feet of rode. It is also big enough to stow fenders and extra lines. It drains overboard just above the waterline, keeping the bilge clean and dry. 

A teak caprail and oval shaped stainless steel handrail are standardl. To prevent damage during docking, the handrail is located slightly inboard of the bulwark. Moving aft, the cabin top features four built-in storage lockers, ideal for stowing lines and fenders. The lockers and the deck drains into specially designed, hidden manifolds, which exit just above the waterline, keeping the topside free of dark streaks.

Fleming also pays special attention to the number, position and size of its mooring cleats, and the F65 features four large cleats on both the port and starboard side forward of the deckhouse, making it easy to properly secure the yacht in a variety of situations. Teak or non-skid decking can be ordered for the foredeck. Convenient handrails are located on the forward coach roof, and together with the teak or stainless handrail above the bulwarks, it is safe to move along the foredeck in a seaway.

Protection against heavy weather is provided by the Portuguese Bridge, which features port and stbd gates for access between the foredeck and the side decks. Deck level LED courtesy lighting enhances safety after dark. The aft section of the Portuguese Bridge features built-in storage lockers for a variety of cruising gear.

One of Fleming's signature design features is its wide side decks that enable safe, sure-footed movement from bow to stern while at sea and during docking manoeuvres. Heavy duty, stainless steel handrails are strategically located to minimize risk of injury. For convenient, effortless boarding in a variety of situations, there are port and starboard boarding gates at both the high and low deck levels, for a total of four. For added convenience and safety, these gates open inboard.

Aft Deck and Swim Platform

The large cockpit space is beautifully finished with teak decking for its superior non-skid properties and sound dampening qualities. While many owners prefer to keep this space open for a variety of watersports activities, others use it as an outside dining area. A dining table can be ordered that follows the contour of the transom, with seating for 8.

Access to the area is via a boarding gate in the transom. Adjacent to the gate is a freshwater shower fitting as well as a saltwater washdown bib.

Optional engine and thruster controls can be located in the cockpit cabinet, making backing into a slip a simple procedure. Optional are two warping winches, which are invaluable when docking "Med" style. Two 50-amp CableMaster power cord systems are located in the transom, one on the port side, one starboard.

The engine room air intake vents are located under the port and stbd cockpit coamings to prevent salt spray from entering the engine room.

The flybridge is easily and safely accessed by the 5-step stairway from the pilothouse. The upper helm, located on the port side, is slightly raised to enhance visibility forward and features a Stidd double helm seat and a console for full instrumentation and electronics. A U-shaped settee with storage underneath and dining table that seats 6 is standard.

A number of different arrangements and equipment can be ordered, depending on the owner's intended use of the area. A large deep freeze, various types of barbecue grills, a wet bar, icemaker, refrigerator and extra seating are popular options.

Also optional is a hardtop with a canvas-glass enclosure, which creates additional all-weather living space. Aft of the flybridge area is the boat deck, with space for a 16-foot inflatable yacht tender. A 1,500-lb. (680kg) capacity Steelhead hydraulic davit system is standard as is a freshwater bib and 110 VAC (230 VAC for European version) outlet for keeping the tender's battery charged. The stainless steel safety rail has a removable section for launching a life raft. Typical of Fleming's obsessive attention to details, the boat deck drains to a series of built-in, stainless steel drains connected to a drain manifold system that exits just above the waterline to prevent streaking of the cabin sides and topsides.

Main Salon & Galley

The large, spacious main salon can be built with a number of different arrangements. A dedicated dining area can be located to starboard with a large settee area to port. In place of the dining area, a second settee can be located on the stbd side opposite the main settee. Or, a large, built-in cabinet can be built on the starboard side with lounge chairs facing the main settee. 

A soft, synthetic leather headliner provides a sense of warmth and style, and there is space for a 42" TV on a powered tv lift.

In the aft, port corner, the owner has a choice of a wet bar with refrigerator and wine cooler or more cabinet space with glass doors. Wooden blinds recessed into the window frames are standard. LED lighting is used throughout, including on the inside of most cabinets.

The galley features a 21-cu. ft. side-by-side refrigerator/freezer on the starboard side and a built-in dish cabinet and pantry space. Granite counter tops, an undermount stainless steel double sink, instant hot water dispenser, waste disposal, convection microwave, and Miele induction cooktop are standard. There is room for an optional dishwasher.

Accommodations

A number of layouts are available for the 3-stateroom accommodations area. Most layouts feature a central passageway, which is just 4-steps down from the main salon area. A full beam master cabin layout is also available with access from the pilothosue.

In most cases, the owner's stateroom is located forward and features an island berth that lifts for easy storage beneath, a private head, and two large hanging lockers.

The port guest stateroom can be built with an island double berth, twins or a double with a pull out, single berth over it. Another option, as shown, is to include a pipe berth over the double. This stateroom shares a head with the second guest stateroom, although a 3-head arrangement is also available.

The starboard guest stateroom can be built with two over-under single berths or with one berth and a private head. A popular layout has the owner's cabin to port and a VIP stateroom forward.

A separate washer and dryer is located in the passageway along with a supply closet and slide-out laundry hamper. The entire accommodations area is finished in warm teak with a synthetic leather headliner. 

Engine Room

Accessed from an exterior hatch aft of the salon doors that leads to a submarine-style door, the engine room is signature Fleming - well thought out, extremely functional and beautifully finished. Standard power is a pair of MAN i6-800 hp diesel engines, and MAN V8-1,000 HP engines are optional. There is room for two  generators, and most owners choose to install two, one with a smaller output for use during moderate power requirements and one larger unit when more power is called for.

To achieve the extremely low sound and vibration that Flemings are well known for, the Aquadrive system isolates the engine and transmission from the propeller thrust, permitting the use of much softer engine mounts. Aquadrive is fitted as standard and their rotating couplings are concealed beneath fiberglass covers for safety. The engine mounts are installed on full-length, polished stainless steel channel sections, a system that has been standard on all Flemings since their inception in 1985.

An intelligently designed and meticulously executed fuel management system takes all the guesswork out of transferring fuel and making sure each engine is being properly fed. The system makes it impossible to overfill a tank by switching a fuel return valve the wrong way.

The arrangement of all mechanical systems has been done with the need for proper maintenance in mind. Every piece of equipment is accessible, and there are places for mechanics to stand and place their tools without damaging vital gear. An optional engine room air conditioning system is available, a detail that will not go unnoticed by the vessel's mechanic.

The aft lazarette houses the water tanks, steering gear and air conditioning compressors while also leaving ample room for storing cruising gear such as spare anchors, rode, lines, fenders and parts.

Main access is through the outside engine room hatch and down a set of curved stainless and teak steps. There are two additional cockpit hatches that allow quick access to stowed gear. Two freshwater pumps are installed and plumbed, providing instant switchover capability in case of failure.

The Fleming 65 pilothouse is the nerve center of the vessel and can be completely separated from the activities throughout the rest of the yacht by its bi-panel teak door. The day head to starboard can also be ordered as a "wet-head" complete with shower, and an insert for the settee creates a convenient watch berth. This arrangement allows the pilothouse to be used as an extra cabin when necessary. Either one or two Stidd helm chairs can be installed, and a raised settee and table provide additional seating for four.

The forward console area has been designed to accommodate a full array of today's modern electronics, and easy accessibility has been built in to allow for service and eventual upgrades. The electrical distribution panels are below the main controls and are hinged and illuminated for access and service.

Visibility forward and to port and stbd is excellent, and two sliding doors open to the wide side decks. A traditional teak and holly sole is standard. There are large drawers and working space for charts, cruising books, navigation instruments, binoculars, cell phones and chargers, log books, flashlights and everything else a captain needs to chart and follow a safe course. A large stainless steel and teak-trimmed destroyer steering wheel fits the ambience of this ultimate cruising yacht.

There is an ongoing process at Fleming Yachts to constantly refine our designs and incorporate improvements to each and every vessel we build. By focusing on a limited number of models Flemings have become known as "The Ultimate Cruising Yachts" We invite you to see a Fleming up close at one of our dealers or to visit us at one of the many boat shows we attend.

How Much Does A Sunseeker 65 Yacht Cost?

First launched in 2021, the Sunseeker 65 Sport Yacht has had its share of accolades including 'Top Sport Cruiser Over 45 Feet' at the Motor Boat Awards and 'Best Exterior Design' at the 2021 World Yacht Trophies. Sunseeker Yachts has wonderfully integrated the experience of driving a sports car into their upper helm. The SkyHelm™ features an incredibly cool steering wheel, radical helm seats with carbon fiber backrests, and a futuristic console. Steady your feet against the foot-rest, lower back your helm seat and push that throttle down for a thrilling 35-knot ride thanks to the twin Volvo D-13 IPS 1350 engines.

As with most of their model ranges, Sunseeker continually develops new boats in a variety of formats. In addition to the 65 Sport Yacht , the Predator 65 is also offered in this range for those that want a more traditional express cruiser style with no sport bridge. Sunseeker describes their award winning model as being "akin to driving a high-performance convertible supercar", of course with all of the luxury accommodations on board you would expect. There are many builders that have yachts between 65 and 70 feet in their model range, but Sunseeker has most certainly made their mark in the category.

Currently, there are few available used boats in the United States for this model so waiting for inventory to become available may take some patience or travel. If you're looking to purchase a Sunseeker 65 Sport Yacht, expect to pay between $3 million and $4 million depending on engine power, hours, equipment, condition, and location . The available Sunseeker 65's should include features like Seakeeper Gyro Stabilization, upgraded generators, and Garmin electronics.

If you have questions about purchasing a new or used boat, please don't hesitate to contact us at [email protected] or our main office at 718-984-7676. Whether we carry the model as a new boat brand or not, our team of expert sales professionals can guide you through the selection process so you make the most informed decision possible that meets your boating needs.

What Do Other 65-Foot Sunseeker Yachts Cost?

The Sunseeker 65 Sport Yacht isn't the only model in this length range that Sunseeker has built or is available on the brokerage market. The Sunseeker 65 Manhattan was a popular boat that first premiered in 2014. While it doesn't go quite as fast as the 65 Sport Yacht (the 65 Manhattan tops out under 30 knots), it does feature a full flybridge with hardtop, something many boaters desire on their yacht. The cost of a Sunseeker 65 Manhattan is going to run between $1.2 million and $1.8 million, depending on the year it was built.

(Below: The Sunseeker 65 Manhattan.)

Another model in this range is the Sunseeker Predator 64, which has a length of 64' 9". While it doesn't have the '65' in the model name, the boat should be considered 65-feet for these purposes. You will not notice a difference in the length between the Predator 64 and the Manhattan 65, for example. The Sunseeker Predator 64 first hit the market in 2009 and is no longer built today. You can still find a Predator 64 on the brokerage market that are selling for between $650,000 and $1 million.

(Below: The Sunseeker Predator 64.)

One feature that the Sunseeker 65 Sport Yacht has over the other previous models is their dedicated, optional Beach Club area. By carrying the tender on the swim platform, the tender garage gets transformed into a private spot right at the water's edge and features a wet bar, fridge, BBQ, and moveable furniture. This allows the owner to create the perfect arrangement of seats for the amount of guests on board, facilitating conversation in the most beautiful environment. There is also a massive sunpad aft of the cockpit with an adjustable backrest, allowing the sunbathers to position themselves facing either direction. (Seen below.)

Since 1964, SI Yachts has been one of the most successful new boat dealers and yacht brokerage firm in the Northeast. Now with a presence in Florida, SI Yachts offers a true North-to-South connection for our clients. If you are looking to sell your yacht , allow the team at SI Yachts to provide you with a pricing analysis on your vessel, as well as a personalized, targeted marketing plan to help get it sold fast and for top dollar. Not only does your boat receive a professional representation with high-quality photos and video, but it is also sent to hundreds of websites through two separate MLS feeds. It is even sent to our competitors' websites for maximum exposure. Contact us today for the sale or purchase of your next boat by email [email protected] or calling our main office at 1-718-984-7676. We look forward to earning your trust, your business, and your friendship.

Boat Review: Hatteras 65

• By Dean Travis Clarke
• Updated: October 12, 2001

I’m sure you’ve seen a commercial like this: The camera focuses on a well-dressed gentleman who exits a building and walks to a shiny luxury vehicle. In the background, workmen break up pavement with jackhammers. The ambient noise hits the pain threshold. The gentleman opens the car door, sits in the driver’s seat and closes the door. All noise ceases, replaced by overwhelming quiet. Pulling back, the camera sees the luxury vehicle drive away through large potholes. The camera pans to wheels bouncing dramatically with each bump and hole in the road. Cut to driver. Soft classical music playing and no noticeable transfer of road surface to vehicle interior.

That’s exactly the feeling I get climbing into the enclosed flybridge on the new Hatteras 65 while running out Palm Beach Inlet in a stiff southeast wind against the tide. You see the spray and feel the boat moving, but all apparently from a soundproof booth. For all those (like me) who claim to prefer an open bridge, one trip in really nasty weather will convince you of the efficacy of an enclosed bridge.

Performance In reasonable seas, normal cruising speed proved to be about 28 knots at 1,900 rpm using 112 gph. Top speed touched 35 knots at 2,360 rpm – faster than any Hatteras 65 I’ve ever run.

We ran the speed tests in a 5-foot beam sea first thing in the morning, but winds increased to 20 knots, and seas were running 8 to 10 feet by the time we headed home. Running south with the wind and seas from the southeast required us to drop back speed to 18 to 20 knots. This is when an enclosed bridge truly shines! We plowed through, taking it virtually on the nose for 30 miles back to Palm Beach with absolute impunity.

Fishability Working our way north, up Sailfish Alley, we stopped and fished whenever we found bait on the fish finder. But it wasn’t until we reached Stuart, Florida, that we found the hot sailfish bite. We first flew kites, with the kite rods on the flybridge. But the current ran so strong, we ended up joining the fleet in slow-trolling our live goggle-eyes and threadfin herring. Either way, the 65 proved steady as a rock, whether heading down, up or beam-to the seas. I can’t imagine a boat being more comfortable sitting in a trough while live baiting.

** Cockpit** As you’d expect from a 65-foot boat, the huge cockpit provides more than enough space for a whole team of anglers and mates to work simultaneously. The cockpit gunwale, situated 3 feet above the waterline, means reviving a fish is a bit of a stretch, but it’s doable.

A large baitwell in the transom can double as a fish box if you aren’t fishing live bait. In the deck, a split hatch hides a very large athwartship fish box. Augmenting the fighting chair or rocket launcher, you’ll find storage space for two rods in each gunwale and three more in each cabin coaming. My pet peeve on large sport-fishing boats has to be dead space. There’s no need for a portable cooler in the cockpit of any boat over 35 or 40 feet. For that reason, I’d like to see an integrated drink cooler in this 65’s cockpit. It would be easy enough to put one under the steps.

One thing common to fishing sailfish in prime conditions at Sailfish Alley is getting wet when backing down into the big seas. Sure, you try to avoid it, but sometimes you just can’t. Fortunately, the 65 has a terrific scupper system. Despite seas occasionally coming over the caprail, water never covered the cockpit sole. Side exhausts also help keep the cockpit quiet and cut down on exhaust fumes coming back into the cockpit. Flybridge You won’t likely run out of space for guests on this flybridge, thanks to long settees on each side in addition to the two comfortable Pompanette helm chairs. Whether you’re entertaining or not, an icemaker and a refrigerator assure refreshments are never out of reach. Every creature comfort has been thought of on this bridge, right down to the settee’s beautiful pullout wooden footrests.

Since you can’t see the cockpit from the enclosed flybridge, Hatteras puts a remote helm station outside on the aft end of the bridge for driving while fighting fish or docking. It’s one of the small sacrifices required by all enclosed flybridge fishing boats.

** Interior** As you’d expect on a boat such as this, the interior can be customized. Most owners will select a three-sided settee for the portside so several people can sleep there on the way to the fishing grounds. Having tried it out, I assure you that the salon boasts an extremely comfortable noise level, with the most prominent sound under way being the muted turbo whistle. I also appreciate the fact that Hatteras placed the entertainment center and TV on the aft end of the salon for better privacy when sitting at the dock.

Hatteras joiner work has never been better, showcasing a high-gloss finish on all wood. (Our test boat was optional cherry. Maple comes standard.) The 65 also provides indirect and aircraft lighting absolutely everywhere, offering superb illumination.

Galley counters capped in marble form almost a 360-degree enclosure, but being only waist-high, they never cut the chef off from the rest of the guests. The counters also work exceptionally well for presenting hors d’oeuvres and buffets. A four-burner electric cooktop, along with convection/microwave oven, makes gourmet cooking quick and fuss-free. Another interesting feature is that the sink is positioned along the portside. I’d never considered it before, but I discovered I really like being able to work at the sink washing dishes while looking out the huge side window.

Belowdecks, Hatteras offers one four-cabin and two three-cabin configurations. The four-stateroom model has two over/under berth cabins to starboard, a double in the bow and an oblique double to port. Both three-stateroom layouts provide only one over/under amidships (under the dinette). All provide access through the midcabin to a utility room with pumps and air-conditioning units. Future models should have a transverse bulkhead door through to the engine room as well.

Our test boat provided flybridge access only from the cockpit, but you can order access from the salon if you wish. It will take some of the unusually comfortable apostrophe-shaped dinette space to do it, though. About the only change I’d like to see in the salon is to affix a long, overhead handhold running from the cockpit door to the stateroom stairway for safety.

Engine Room Cresting at well over 6 feet tall, I can really appreciate a big engine room. Not only does this 65 have a well-laid-out space, but also I can stand upright with room to spare. Hatterascal had been fitted with big iron – a pair of 16-cylinder MTUs (1,800 hp each) representing close to a $300,000 upgrade over the standard CAT 12-cylinder diesels of 1,400 hp each.

Of course, all valves and maintenance points can be easily accessed on or near centerline, and generators sit on the aft end of the compartment to keep them away from living quarters.

It’s obvious that Hatteras wants you to be able to keep track of conditions in the engine compartment. The Hatterascal had engine control panels on the aft end so you can easily peek at them as soon as you stick your head in, and sports TV cameras that allow you to zoom in on a number of areas of the engine room for display on the flybridge.

DESCRIPTION

The 65 Convertible was restyled with a raised foredeck and swept back superstructure, rounded edges, and new frameless, tinted windows for a sleek contemporary look. The interior was updated with a standard 4-stateroom, 3-head accommodations layout; a 3-stateroom, 3-head layout was optional. The fourth starboard aft stateroom with private head and utility room access, could be for crew, especially with an optional bulkhead door to the engine room. The main deck salon, galley and dinette became a large open space for relaxing and entertaining with beautifully finished maple (or optional dark cherry) grain-matched woodwork, fluted valances, and 2” wood window blinds. Entertainment center on starboard side faces couch. Hatteras designers filled every accessible space with stowage, including beneath furniture. The L-shaped couch in the salon has storage underneath, as does the adjacent coffee table that opens with a set of gas-assisted struts. Forward to starboard, the U-shaped dinette seats 5 and has drawers underneath.

The full-service galley is forward portside directly across from the dinette for easy access. Amenities include drawer-style Sub-Zero undercounter refrigerator/freezer units, 4-burner electric stove, convection microwave oven with wood fascia, and plenty of drawers and high-gloss finished maple cabinets (dark cherry was optional). Solid surface countertops with undermounted sink provide sufficient area to prep dinner for five. A trash compactor was available as a Hatteras option.

The 4-stateroom accommodations layout features the master suite to port with 2 cedar-lined closets, built-in bulkhead cabinets, and tapered queen berth with cedar-lined storage beneath. Ensuite head features stall shower and solid surface countertops with integral sink, high-gloss maple (standard) or cherrywood cabinets. Forepeak VIP guest stateroom features a centerline tapered queen berth with cedar-lined storage beneath, cedar-lined hanging closet, drawers, and overhead bins. Private access to guest head. Starboard stateroom with upper and lower bunks has storage under lower bunk and a large closet. Guest head also features stall shower and solid surface countertops with sink. The fourth stateroom has an ensuite head and access to utility room and engine room as an option for crew. 6’6” headroom throughout.

The cockpit is a huge 183 sq ft area designed for battling trophy gamefish. Set-up includes a bait center with refrigerator/freezer and sink, tackle locker, in-sole fishbox (that could be refrigerated), transom livewell, rod holders, wide transom door, drink box, and other storage. Hatteras offered a chipped-ice maker, Murray Brothers fighting chair, and cockpit controls as options.

The standard open bridge features a forward raised helm deck for enhanced visibility and an extended aft deck overhang to shade the forward cockpit area. An aft fishing station on bridge provides view of cockpit action for backing down on fish and for backing into a slip. The power actuated console conceals all electronic equipment under a gasketed lid and is standard equipment. Extra rod storage is beneath side bench seating. An enclosed air-conditioned bridge with spiral stairwell to starboard side of salon was an option Hatteras offered for the 65 Convertible and also included aft controls for backing on fish and docking. Tower, outriggers, electronic teaser reels and other special equipment were owner options. A few refinements were made to the legendary Hatteras hull bottom to improve performance and durability. The propeller pocket angle was slightly modified to reduce draft and optimize prop thrust.

Aft chine rails that taper forward added more planing surface for lift and slow speed (trolling) stability. And the rudder post shelves were upgraded to fiberglass to prevent deterioration. The thick solid fiberglass bottom and keel, foam-cored fiberglass stringers and hull sides, vacuum-bagged bulkheads and decks are all fiberglassed to the hull in-mold for a perfect shape. Fiberglass encased steel engine mount supports help reduce vibration by preventing transfer to hull. Stanchions and cleats are backed with tapped aluminum plates. Huge 7-blade 48 x 88 Nibral props and 4” diameter shafts effectively drive the 50+ ton yacht—built like a tank to take on the rigors of blue water tournament fishing with the agility and speed to compete and bring in trophy-winning catches.

The Hatteras 65 Convertible length overall (LOA) is 65’5” with a beam of 18’ and 6’ draft. Fuel capacity is 1800 gallons; freshwater is 445 gallons and holding tank is 100 gallons. Standard engines were twin 1400hp CAT 3412E diesel engines. Optional engines were twin 1350hp Detroit Diesel 12V-2000 engines.

HCB Center Console Yachts 65 Estrella Review

• By Randy Vance
• Updated: March 20, 2019

Colossal center-consoles have trickled into the marine market over the past few years, but this 65-footer is the first of such commanding size, and the only one powered by more than 3,000 outboard horsepower. Its length and beam can intimidate, but its all-electronic/hydraulic helm controls have made it a sweet baby to handle in any conditions.

HCB Yachts calls the Estrella a production model, but the company will customize it any way you want. My test boat came seriously outfitted as a fish boat, but it was filled with cruising comfort too. Ready to fish well offshore, the 65 can race across the Gulf Stream to the Bahamas in an hour and provide luxurious accommodations once you get there.

Run, Baby, Run! On the docks in the Florida Keys this past December, I approached the Estrella from the stern quarter. The row of five Seven Marine 627 outboards seized my attention. While I ogled the motors, I realized it took several more paces to draw up even with the vessel’s ­sumptuous, crowd-pleasing foredeck.

The size of that deck is the only thing that can overshadow the massive horsepower. Don’t worry about grabbing a workout when you visit the Bahamas — 40 laps around the center console equals a mile, and you’ll enjoy a better view than in a stinky gym.

The outboards come with ZF ­transmissions and electronic throttle and shift. With that and the integral power steering, controlling these wooly mammoths seems simple. The double-lever ZF controls feature a short stroke but firm feedback, making it easy to make minute throttle adjustments. HCB positioned the trim controls overhead in a five-button panel so the helmsman can fine-tune trim for each engine at any throttle speed.

In my test, once the 65 came up on plane and I trimmed it for 40 mph, I found little need for adjustment unless I chose to drop the power and spin the helm into a hard turn. I did that too, carving crisp circles, and ­tightening them up by adding more throttle.

But here’s what was ­astonishing in my test: This beauty weighed 65,000 pounds with five engines. So when I pressed the throttle levers forward and the boat launched to plane in 8.9 seconds, I was impressed. I clocked the boat to 30 mph in just 13.4 seconds.

The Estrella settled down quickly, giving me a commanding view forward from my standing position at the helm.

I could’ve sat at the helm and still enjoyed a panoramic on-plane view over the bow, and sometimes I did. The five-across custom helm seats felt firm but forgiving, absorbing the landings as the hull cleaved and crushed our ­doubled-up wakes.

These seats will not easily ­bottom out in seas because the foam is ­injection-molded to a specific shape. The foam will resist water absorption too, keeping the seats in top condition for decades with reasonable care. The 65 also comes with a sleigh seat aft of the helm row for five additional ­forward‑facing riders.

That Ahhhhhh Moment When you design a 65-foot sport-­fishing center-console yacht, the platform can do far more than provide competitive fishability. And when you sink into one of the dual forward lounges or snuggle into the queen-size air-conditioned berth belowdecks, an inevitable, audible “ahhhhhh” says everything about the luxury wrapped around the fish-battling features.

Take the fine mahogany wood­working in the ladder-back trim on the helm seats, the custom polished-teak helm pod and the hand-carved teak fighting chair. The finish on these parts is so tough, deep and lustrous, you have to look hard to ­convince ­yourself they’re wood. They are, though. So is the teak sole — smoothly sanded, tightly laid and comfortable underfoot. A matching covering board surrounds the boat atop the gunwales. At the transom, the covering board thickens and widens to protect the dual 80-gallon livewells beneath.

I found more teak at the step to the mezzanine seating. Beneath the step, HCB installed hatches for tackle boxes and a pair of refrigerated drawers.

Besides the mezzanine seating and the enormous luxury lounge ahead of the console, large lounges rim the bow. The teak sole between these lounges features an electric jack that raises the flooring to either complete a sun pad or create a table.

If you’re into outdoor cuisine, the helm-station sole can electrically rise to form a table between the sleigh seating and reversed helm-station bucket seats. The factory can even convert the mezzanine to a full outdoor kitchen with an electric grill, sink and fridge.

The cabin below offers a large shower in the roomy head compartment. There’s an abbreviated galley, but plenty of room to make coffee or even breakfast. A mirrored one-way glass backing the counter reveals a TV, but only when the appliance is switched on.

Custom Layouts My tester could’ve come equipped with an aft lounge instead of the dual livewells, flanked by Frigid Rigid coolers with jump-seat cushions nested on either side. If an owner opts for the lounge, HCB would plumb the forward coolers as livewells.

Shotgun, gunwale and hardtop rod holders seem so numerous that it takes less than a glance to holster a stick in a hurry. On my test boat, that hardtop also featured outriggers, controllable from below.

Cockpit side doors port and ­starboard allow anglers to boat a big fish, and in-floor boxes — 150 gallons each — boast freezer plates to chill fish without carrying weighty ice. The coup de grâce, for me, was the standard Seakeeper gyro stabilizer, ensuring a stable deck to keep any outing pleasurable.

Brief Specifications

Bering 65 is a rugged and classical-looking steel yacht capable of any ocean crossing. She is quiet, solid, and leaves a graceful wake underway. Her displacement is over 224,800 lbs (102 mT). With 4,490 gallons (16,800 l) of fuel, you can cruise continuously for thousands of miles burning a combined 8 gallons (30 l) an hour at 8 knots.

Her interior is lavishly crafted with beautiful woodwork and a variety of counter, flooring, and upholstery selections.

The saloon features built-in seating on both sides with a large dinette to starboard. An entertainment center forward of the settees has a large flat-screen TV surrounded by hand-finished woods of your choosing. Large double aft doors can be opened when maximum ventilation is desired or when entertaining large groups. A staircase forward leads to the lower staterooms.

The full-width galley is just aft of the pilothouse steering room but on the same level. Refrigeration units and in-wall oven(s) are located off to the port side, along with drawer storage and an optional wine chiller. To the starboard side, you have a cooking surface, trash compactor, sink, dishwasher, and dry storage. This galley is bright and airy, thanks in part to the open bulkhead and its location above the saloon’s elevation.

Forward of the galley, the pilothouse is the command where most of the ship’s controls and displays are collected. From here, you can monitor all critical systems such as tank levels, engine metrics, and battery banks. This lower helm station is perfect for steering in inclement weather conditions. Wing doors lead to both port and starboard side decks. Extensive window placement on three sides provides complete forward and adjacent viewing of your surroundings. An L-shaped settee located aft of the helm chair is perfect for hanging out with the captain while underway and offers an alternative place to lounge and read if you wish some separation from the saloon.

The master stateroom can be located forward as a v-berth of aft, or as an amidships stateroom. Bering 65 is set up as a three-stateroom layout in its standard configuration, with each stateroom having its own bathroom.

The engine room houses the twin diesel engines in addition to many of the ship’s machinery components. Bering Yachts places great emphasis on minimizing noise and vibration coming from this space. The entire engine room is surrounded by acoustic paneling and heavy bulkhead insulation. The engine room’s aft is utility/storage space, perfect for such things as fenders, water-maker, dive compressor, and tool storage.

Access to the swim platform is available through either of the outboard stairwells in the cockpit. The aft platform is located just above the waterline to allow for easy access to your tender or water toys. Throughout the deck spaces, you will find intelligent and thoughtful touches such as the numerous mooring cleats, freeing ports to quickly clear the decks of green water, and ergonomic handrails for maximum security.

The covered cockpit provides additional outdoor living space regardless of weather conditions, be it intense tropical sun or a rainy day at anchor. The cockpit settee and table are perfect for outdoor dining, visiting, or just comfortably lounging. Covered side decks and tall bulwarks provide a very secure walkway to the Portuguese bridge and foredeck. Large storage lockers inside the Portuguese bridge are perfect for storing docklines, hoses, and equipment. Molded-in seating on the foredeck puts you out in front with a view second to none!

Bering 65’s covered flybridge helm station and seating area provide exceptional views whether underway or at anchor. With generously sized settees and the option to have any combination of refrigeration, outdoor grilling, stainless sink, etc., you can entertain guests with ease. The aft boat deck can easily accommodate a 4.2 meter tender, effortlessly launched and recovered with a hydraulic crane. The boat deck stairwell connects the covered cockpit, which means you don’t have to move through the interior spaces when you wish to head up to the upper deck after swimming or diving.

In recent years, sailboats and yachts 60 feet have become very popular. This development is mainly due to the demand for comfort among boat enthusiasts and boaters. Advancement in technology has made it easier for simple boat users to handle large-sized boats without a boat crew’s help. Innovations such as bow thrusters help with mooring, and improvement in deck-gear technology has made sailing less difficult. 

It is no gainsaying that, to a great extent, larger boats are more comfortable; there is more space for more luxurious rooms and amenities. If it were a car, we’d say, “there’s more legroom.” 

Below, we have described the best bluewater sailboats that are above 60 feet. If you love large boats and are looking to buy one, it is hoped that this list will inform your purchase and help you to know what to look out for as you make your purchase.

Best Yachts – Top 15 Picks for 2024

Carver 52 Command Bridge

Hatteras M75 Panacera

Sabre 58 Salon Express

What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you think of a yacht? Probably those huge luxury cruisers reserved for the high society folks, right? Well, that’s true, but those are a special group of ships referred to as luxury yachts.

The questions you need to be asking are – What is a yacht? At what point is a yacht regarded as a ship? And, what exactly makes a yacht a yacht? Here’s a little boating lesson for you.

A yacht is any fast cruising watercraft used for pleasure or sport. Yachts can be classified into cruisers, superyachts, and mega yachts. The difference between them all boils down to their respective sizes.

Anything that’s 50+ meters long is a mega yacht. Anything larger than a mega yacht is generally referred to as a ship and generally describes a working vessel as opposed to something recreational.

So, as you can see, you don’t necessarily have to be swimming in a ton of money to become a yacht owner. The only difference will be in the size of the craft you get. Clear enough?

How to Choose the Best Yachts – Buyer’s Guide

A yacht is a pretty big purchase. So, you need to know what to look for when choosing the right one for your needs. Here are a couple of pointers that might come in handy.

Type of Yacht

The type of yacht you buy depends in large part on your intended use for it. Most yachts tend to fall into one of three categories – For water sports like wakeboarding , fishing motor yachts, or the overnight cruising variety. Once you know what kind of recreational activities you plan on engaging in, that should help narrow down your choices.

Next, you need to consider what size of yacht you should get. Do you have a young family that you intend to expand in the coming years? Do you plan to use the vessel for day cruising, or do you intend to spend a couple of nights on board from time to time?

Will the yacht be just for you and your significant other, or do you plan to frequently entertain several guests on board? This will advise whether you should buy a cabin cruiser yacht, a superyacht, or a mega yacht.

In a perfect world, you would have all the money you need to buy any kind of watercraft you want. Sadly, that’s not the reality we live in. Keep in mind that yachts don’t exactly come cheap. So, even if you’re planning to purchase a small yacht, you’ll still need to spend quite a bit of cash to get it.

The best thing to do would be to set a budget and compare the different models on offer from different manufacturers . Aside from the boat’s purchase price, you also need to think about the costs associated with owning a yacht. These include insurance, repairs, maintenance, cleaning, and the vessel’s general servicing.

Figure out what kind of comfort and convenience features are a must-have for you. How many cabins should it have? Do you need it to have a summer grill up top? Or will the one in the mini kitchen below-deck suffice? Ensure that the yacht you get has all the amenities you need.

Last but not least, before you sign any purchase contract, ensure that you schedule a sea trial with the dealer. That way, you get a true feel for the boat before you buy it.

Look Before You Leap

If you’re in the market for a shiny new yacht, any of the 15 vessels we’ve detailed in this guide will make an excellent choice. Do your homework beforehand, and make sure your desired craft has all the features and amenities you seek.

Lexus just unveiled the most powerful vehicle in its lineup, but it won’t ever reach the road.

The luxury yacht, or LY for short, was designed to “feel like a hideout in the middle of the sea,” according to Lexus. The exterior reflects the automaker’s “L-finesse” design philosophy, with curvy, head-turning lines and a sharp bow creating a sporty profile.

The interior centers around a “comfortable living space,” Lexus says. With a beam of nearly 19 feet, the yacht offers a decent amount of space onboard, too. The nameplate didn’t divulge many details regarding decor, but Italian design powerhouse Nuvolari Lenard spearheaded the interior design of the 650. In terms of layout, the 680 is equipped with three cabins on the lower deck and a light-filled salon, galley, and helm station on the main deck.

The exterior is bigger—and perhaps better—than that of the 650. The flybridge has been extended by about 4.5 feet and adorned with a plush lounge and grill. The aft swim platform has also been lengthened by roughly 2.3 feet.

In terms of performance, the 680 will be powered by a pair of 12.8-liter turbocharged Volvo D13 engines capable of delivering 1,350 hp each to IPS drives. (The yacht can also be equipped with slightly less powerful 1,050 hp engines.) The 650 sported the same propulsion system and could reach 33.5 knots at full tilt.

Is the 262-foot-long xplorer 80 the ultimate crossover superyacht.

Damen Yachting's Xplorer 80 is uniquely qualified to cruise in the tropics

Full disclosure. I love all of Damen Yachting ’s newly rebranded Xplorer line of crossover superyachts that combine all the capabilities of an expedition yacht with all the over-the-top luxury of a more conventional yacht. I love the way they dare to be just a bit different too.

And now that the new, 262-foot-long (80 meter) Xplorer 80 has been introduced to the Xplorer range which already includes the 196-foot-long Xplorer 60 (meter), and the massive 344-foot-long Xplorer 105 (meter), it’s great to see the Damen Yachting team continue to innovate.

Ahhhhh. The Xplore 80 combines luxury with capability

“By introducing the Xplorer 80, we have further established our ability to create a perfect crossover superyacht. She combines luxury, expedition, capability, high-spec shipbuilding and everything in- between.” Rose Damen, Managing Director Damen Yachting.

According to advance reports the concept was conceived with customization in mind while offering a number of configuration options to suit any lifestyle. Xplorer Design Manager Enrique Tintore explains, “The way the Xplorer has been designed allows for a high level of flexibility to suit any extreme environment or refined landscape. If a helicopter isn’t essential for you, we’ve got many other options for that space. Need a conference room or a seventh guest cabin? Or a separate gym and a high-spec laboratory? We can make that happen.”

The configuration options include everything from a below deck helicopter hangar, and large gym and wellness center, to a massive twin tender garage setup with a fully-equipped dive center. And for many who don’t require such serious heli-ops storage capability, the large aft area can be configured into wall-to-wall lounge and beach club too.

The flexibility in the design does not stop at configuration options. For the exterior design, Damen Yachting has once again partnered with Azure Yacht Design & Naval Architecture to further develop the Xplorer 80’s exterior lines. But the Dutch builder has also partnered up with a number of additional exterior and interior designers to provide a unique set of alternatives centered around the same base platform. For the exterior, alternative designs have been created by Espen Øino, Harrison Eidsgaard and Azure Yacht Design.

For the interior design concepts, Damen Yachting has partnered with London-based design studio Harrison Eidsgaard. The result is a custom designed for long-term and luxurious living. Known for their quality and personal attention to detail, the Harrison Eidsgaard team has developed a Manhattan loft-inspired space that encompasses how you like to explore and experience your passions. With refined details, smart storage and a warm ambience throughout, every step you take around this yacht has been considered. "This interior can cover every journey and any lifestyle - all you need to do is immerse yourself." Ben Harrison, co-founder of Harrison Eidsgaard. Alternative interior design concepts have also been provided by Winch Design and Reymond Langton Design.

The owners suite aboard the Xplore 80 from Damen Yachting

Coinciding with the introduction of the Xplorer 80, Damen Yachting have also introduced their updated and modernized branding for their range of luxury explorers. Damen Yachting’s Marketing Manager Sarah Flavell explains. “We wanted to make the original SeaXplorer branding more relevant for today’s and tomorrow’s luxurious yet adventurous yachting needs. While the DNA within the Xplorer 80 proudly carries all of the original SeaXplorer key attributes, we wanted to update the way the brand was presented to better reflect the forward-thinking nature of this new 80-metre Xplorer. The result is that the Xplorer 80 absolutely embodies the brand values associated with the Xplorer range bringing extensive capability, unrivalled autonomy and above all luxury space and lifestyle to the most extreme corners of the globe.”

An alternative exterior layout from Harrison Eidsgaard is also available

It's cool to see Damen Yachting focus on a world of infinite adventures where superyachts and expedition yachts combine. In fact, the new Xplorer 80 may just be the ultimate crossover superyacht that combines luxury and expedition capability in a whole new way.
