Hatteras M60

Tailor-made for Great Lakes cruising.

by Craig Ritchie

The all-new Hatteras M60 motoryacht has already created a major stir among Great Lakes cruisers.

Although it’s the smallest member of the company’s motoryacht lineup, there’s nothing entry-level about this luxurious gem. Designed for owners who self-crew their boats, the M60 entices with a compelling blend of amenities, space and performance.

For starters, the M60 boasts the largest salon in its class. Massive wraparound windows flood the space with natural light, creating an inviting space to relax and unwind. Step ahead to an equally large and bright dinette facing a large galley with an island. You can also face the dinette aft to enjoy the sun in the large cockpit, complete with an elegantly curved aft seat. A wide stairway leads to the flybridge; here you’ll find twin helm seats and a full wraparound L-shaped lounge. Steps on either end of the transom offer easy access to the oversized swim platform.

Below deck, a full-width master suite with large tinted windows invites a good night’s sleep. Guests enjoy a spacious private bow suite with a large V-berth, while the kids enjoy the privacy of their own stateroom with twin beds.

“The Hatteras pedigree is clearly evident everywhere you look on the M60 motoryacht,” says Bay Marine’s Mark Felhofer. “Designed for the owner/operator, the Hatteras M60’s layout and solid offshore hull make it ideal for exploring the natural shores and historic towns around the Great Lakes.”

With its massive 1,200-gallon fuel capacity, 100-gallon holding tank and 250-gallon freshwater capacity, the M60 is built for extended cruising. Like all Hatteras yachts, the M60 can be customized to order, allowing owners to infuse their personal style with design options, such as exotic hardwoods, supple fabrics and a host of architectural accents.

Being just the right size to explore the Great Lakes properly — big enough to handle the open waters yet compact enough to manage shallow anchorages — makes the M60 an exciting addition to the Hatteras lineup. With its versatile design and luxurious amenities, it’s little wonder this mini megayacht has captured the attention of cruising boaters all across the region.
