Hatteras GT45X Flybridge (2016 - 2023) Rivals

Accommodation

The Hatteras GT45X Flybridge offers a versatile accommodation layout that caters to both day boating enthusiasts and those who may occasionally seek overnight or weekend getaways. Additionally, its maximum guest capacity of four ensures there's ample space for a small group of friends or family, making it suitable for day outings with the possibility of occasional overnight or weekend use. Conversely, some of its rivals like the Viking Yachts 46 with its simpler one cabin configurations may be better suited for day boating enthusiasts who prioritize open-water adventures and occasional overnight escapes.

Performance

In terms of cruising performance, the Hatteras GT45X Flybridge leads the way with an impressive cruising speed of 37 knots thanks to its twin 985hp Caterpillar C12.9 E02 engines and maximum speed of 43 knots at 2,300rpm. Closely followed by, the Hatteras GT45X Tower with a respectable cruising speed of 37 knots. The Hatteras GT45X Cruiser also impresses with a cruising speed of 37 knots. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Viking Yachts 48ST, with the slowest cruising speed of 30 knots, emphasizes stability and comfort over outright speed and enjoying the journey over the destination.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Hatteras GT45X Cruiser, Hatteras GT45X Tower, Viking Yachts 44C and Viking Yachts 46 all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Hatteras GT45X Tower is especially impressive, with a top speed of 43 knots and cruising speed of 37 knots. The Viking Yachts 48ST has an impressive gross tonnage of 30GT, the largest of the competitors here.
