MAZARA | 2015 Hatteras 45 Express Sportfish
Australian Delivered New | Twin CAT C18 Power | CAT Three60 Joystick Control | The Only Hatteras 45 Express Available in Australia
There are plenty of boats that are well maintained. Very few can genuinely claim to have been continually upgraded, professionally cared for and prepared without compromise for every trip they have undertaken.
MAZARA is one of those rare vessels.
Australian delivered new and held by only two meticulous owners since new, MAZARA represents an opportunity to acquire one of the most highly specified and best presented express sportfish currently available in Australia. Built during the celebrated Hatteras and Cabo era, the Hatteras 45 Express earned a reputation as one of the most capable offshore sportfishing platforms ever produced.
Combining the sea-keeping ability, fishability and offshore performance demanded by serious anglers with the luxury and refinement expected of a premium American yacht, the model remains highly sought after worldwide.
What separates MAZARA from every other Hatteras 45 is not simply the platform itself, but the level of ownership, maintenance and investment she has received throughout her life. Over the past decade she has benefited from the sort of ownership every buyer hopes to find but rarely does. Held by only two fastidious owners, professionally maintained, annually antifouled and Prop Speed treated, skipper maintained and continually upgraded regardless of cost, she presents as a vessel that has always been prepared for the next trip rather than the next sale.
Powered by twin Caterpillar C18 diesel engines producing 1,050 horsepower each and equipped with the highly sought-after CAT Three60 Joystick Control System, MAZARA delivers exceptional offshore performance while remaining remarkably easy to manoeuvre around marinas and tight berths.
The addition of a Yacht Controller remote docking system further enhances owner-operator usability, providing precise vessel control from anywhere onboard.
For serious offshore anglers, the specification is exceptional. The custom tournament tower, hydraulic outriggers, electric trolling reel setup, ice chipper, expansive teak cockpit, live bait systems, fish storage solutions and purpose- built fishing layout create a platform capable of competing with the very best sportfish vessels in the country.
The electronics package is equally impressive, featuring an extensive Garmin offshore navigation suite, FLIR thermal imaging camera system, open array radar with Bird Mode, CHIRP sounder technology, satellite television and comprehensive helm and tower controls. Every element has been selected to support serious offshore operation without compromise.
One of the defining characteristics of the Hatteras 45 Express is her visibility and ride quality. The single-level sightline from the helm, exceptional all-round visibility and renowned dry-riding hull design inspire confidence in all conditions. Combined with the ability to reverse aggressively on fish, MAZARA remains every bit the serious game fishing platform she was designed to be.
Below deck, the atmosphere shifts from tournament sportfish to luxury cruiser. Rich timber cabinetry, premium finishes, stone benchtops, spacious accommodation and quality appointments throughout create an environment more commonly associated with a luxury motor yacht than a dedicated offshore fishing vessel.
The engine room presentation deserves special mention. Clean, organised and exceptionally maintained, it reflects the standard of ownership evident throughout every aspect of the vessel. Detailed maintenance records, low engine hours and continual preventative maintenance provide confidence for even the most discerning purchaser.
Further highlights include Hydraulic Outriggers, stainless steel anchor and chain package, watermaker, upgraded stereo system, Foxtel integration, full storm covers, oil change system, cockpit shower and sink, spare propellers, comprehensive safety equipment, camera system and the potential inclusion of a tender with Mercury outboard by negotiation.
Finding a Hatteras 45 Express is rare.
Finding an Australian-delivered example with only two owners, CAT C18 power, CAT Three60 joystick control, an extensive upgrade history and presentation of this standard is rarer still.
For the buyer seeking one of the finest express sportfish currently available in Australia, MAZARA deserves serious consideration.
