Hatteras M90 Panacera Review (2019 Edition) by Aquaholic

On Deck

The tour begins with the hi-lo platform at the yacht's entrance, which is found to be impressive for its ability to convert into steps into the water. 

The aft deck cockpit, features a table with beautiful woodwork which can be removed for easy movement or kept in place for dining. The bar area, complete with ice makers, fridges, and storage, is also a highlight.

Inside the yacht, there is a large social area and an even larger TV. A unique feature here in the saloon is a side-opening door with a drop-down balcony that provides ventilation and a connection to the outside.

There are beautiful wall lights and details in the dining area. Heading forward there is a country kitchen-style galley with seating that provides a great focal area separate from the other areas on the boat.  The double oven, hob, and large refrigerators add to the yacht's functionality. Also in this area is a day heads and a side door for quick exit from the boat.

Featured in the galley is a controller for the boat's control system, called Hatcon, which allows for control of all systems on the boat, such as lighting, ventilation, and music.  These controllers are dotted throughout the interior. 

On the lower deck, the VIP guest cabin holds ample storage and an ensuite. The laundry facilities and additional storage are also just outside in the lobby. In the other guest cabins there are Pullman berths, meaning the cabins can sleep three people.

The master cabin stands out with its large size, storage, seating, wardrobes, and ensuite with twin sinks and a rainfall shower. The contrasting dark wood and light color is a wonderful feature here.

The flybridge, which unusually is fully enclosed, offers a big seating area and a dining area. The upper helm is well-equipped with multiple control systems, including a joystick controller, ship-to-shore radios, and thrusters.

The crew area includes a mess with cooking facilities, fridges, seating area, and a Hatcon panel. The captain's cabin is a decent size with an ensuite and separate shower stall. There is another cabin and more laundry equipment, as well as another heads.

The engine space is well-lit and spacious, housing Catterpillar C32 engines, each with 1900 horsepower. The yacht also has a water maker and two large generators.

Overall, Nick is impressed with the Hatteras M90 Panacera, praising its design, functionality, and luxury features. From the detailed woodwork to the powerful engines and extensive control systems, he considers it a fine ship. His tour provides an in-depth look at what makes this yacht a standout choice.
