Our Take

The 2018 Hatteras GT70 "Resilient" represents a fully equipped tournament-grade sportfishing platform built for serious offshore operations. At 70.5 feet in length with a 21.33-foot beam and 5-foot draft, this variable dead-rise hull is engineered for rough-water capability while maintaining the refined cruising comfort expected in the premium sportfish category. The twin MTU 16V-2000 diesel engines—a significant 795K upgrade producing 2,600 horsepower combined—deliver a 35-knot cruise and 42.5-knot top speed, while the ZF 3070 transmission with trolling valves enables precise boat control during fishing operations. With 2,760 gallons of fuel capacity distributed across four tanks and a 330-gallon freshwater supply, the GT70 supports extended offshore passages and tournament schedules.

The sportfishing architecture centers on a dedicated cockpit designed for serious game-fish hunting. The Furuno OSH-8041-A OMNI Searchlight Sonar with dedicated bridge display provides advanced bottom imaging and fish-finding capability, complemented by eight custom tuna tubes in the transom livewell, custom removable saddle bait tanks, and extra-large fish holds with additional livewell capacity. Twin triple-spreader hydraulic outriggers enable multi-line trolling setups. The Release Marine Trillion fighting chair and Rocket Launcher provide tournament-grade fighting stations, while custom rod storage throughout the cockpit and companionway supports a full tackle complement. Cockpit amenities include air conditioning with overhead vents, a grill, teaser reel hookups, and a transom fish door for convenient bait and catch management. An Eskimo ice machine at the mezzanine level supports provisioning for extended trips.

The electronics suite reflects a comprehensive Garmin and Furuno integration built for navigation and fish-finding. The Garmin system includes three GPSMAP 8624 24-inch HD multifunction displays on the flybridge, a GPSMAP 7616 16-inch MFD in the tower, a GPSMAP 7612 12-inch cockpit unit, and a 12-inch cockpit MFD on the starboard side. A Garmin GMR 1226XHD2-6 12KW open-array radar with 6-foot antenna, Garmin GSD-26 digital black box sounder with selectable 20KHz to 210KHz frequency, Garmin CM599LHW wide-beam transducer, and Garmin AIS 600 complete the navigation package. The Garmin GHP Reactor hydraulic core-pack with Smartpump and GRF10 rudder feedback support precision autopilot control. An Icom IC-M506 NMEA 2000 VHF radio, Comrod 16-foot collared antenna, and Speco hailer horn ensure reliable communications. The system supports 10Hz internal GPS, NMEA 2000 networking, and Garmin BlueChart G2 charting. The Garmin GC10 marine camera and Garmin Action Camera provide visual monitoring, while a FLIR M625CS stabilized thermal camera and ACR-RCL searchlight enhance night operations and safety.

2018 Hatteras GT70: Tournament-Ready Sportfish with Twin MTU Power and Premium Offshore Capabilities
The 2018 Hatteras GT70 represents the pinnacle of modern sportfishing yacht design—a 70.5-foot diesel-powered platform engineered for serious offshore tournament fishing while delivering the comfort and accommodations expected of a premium cruising motor yacht . Named "Resilient," this GT70 has been maintained under captain care and configured with an exceptional array of factory and custom upgrades that position it as a fully equipped battlewagon for blue-water pursuit.
Overview: Design and Purpose
Hatteras built the GT70 on a variable dead-rise hull with a sharp entry, a time-tested geometry that combines seaworthiness in rough conditions with the stability and ride quality demanded by tournament crews and extended cruising parties. At 70.5 feet in length with a 21.33-foot beam and 5-foot draft, the GT70 occupies the upper tier of the sportfishing category—large enough to handle serious offshore conditions, yet maneuverable enough for coastal operations and inlet navigation. The variable dead-rise design transitions from sharper deadrise forward to flatter sections aft, improving comfort at cruise speeds while maintaining stability during anchoring and fishing operations. This particular vessel's power plant consists of twin MTU M96 16V-2000 diesel engines rated at 2,600 brake horsepower each, representing a significant $795,000 factory upgrade from the standard powerplant. These marine-grade MTU diesels deliver the torque and reliability demanded by tournament operators, with cruise performance in the mid-30-knot range and a top speed exceeding 42.5 knots—performance that reflects the engineering philosophy of the GT70 as both a capable fishing platform and a genuinely fast cruising yacht.
Helm, Electronics, and Integrated Systems
The GT70 is outfitted with a comprehensive Garmin electronics ecosystem that places navigation, fish-finding, and vessel monitoring at the helm, flybridge , and cockpit. The primary navigation suite includes three 24-inch Garmin GPSMAP 8624 multifunction displays positioned across the flybridge, complemented by a 16-inch GPSMAP 7616 unit in the tower and a 12-inch GPSMAP 7612 in the cockpit. This distributed helm architecture allows the captain to operate from multiple stations—a critical feature for tournament fishing, where quick decisions and real-time data drive success. The Garmin GMR 1226XHD2-6 12-kilowatt open array radar with six-foot antenna provides 360-degree situational awareness, while the Furuno OSH-8041-A OMNI searchlight sonar with dedicated bridge display and custom fiberglass tube delivers high-resolution bottom imaging and fish detection capabilities. The Garmin GSD-26 digital black box sounder covers a frequency range from 20 kilohertz to 210 kilohertz with selectable power from 300 watts to 3 kilowatts, enabling detailed structure mapping and species identification across varying depths and conditions. Vessel control and automation are managed through a Garmin GHP Reactor hydraulic core-pack with Smartpump technology and Garmin GRF10 rudder feedback, ensuring responsive, precise steering at all speeds. The Garmin GHC20 marine autopilot with four-inch display handles extended cruising, while full tower controls and electronics allow bridge operation of all major systems. An electric bow thruster aids maneuvering in confined spaces and alongside docks. Communication systems include an Icom IC-M506 NMEA 2000 VHF radio with 16-foot antenna, 25-watt hailer, foghorn, and rear microphone, supplemented by a Comrod 16-foot collared antenna and Poly-Planar VHF remote speaker. Satellite television is provided by a KVH Tracvision HD7 system with KVH H25 Direct TV receiver and KVH Tracphone V3IP internet with 18-foot dome antenna, enabling connectivity and entertainment throughout the vessel. A Garmin GXM53 XM satellite antenna and Garmin AIS 600 transponder complete the data-link infrastructure. The audio-visual system features a Fusion MS-NRX2001 marine stereo with JL Audio M880-CCX-HW eight-inch cockpit speakers (eight-inch woofer with 1.2-inch tweeter) powered by a JL Audio full-range amplifier, a 20-inch LED television in the crew stateroom, and an ALTONA HDMI distribution amplifier for flexible content routing. Surveillance and situational awareness are enhanced by a FLIR M625CS stabilized thermal camera, Garmin GC10 marine camera, Axis Q7424 video encoder, and Garmin action camera. A Panasonic two-line cordless phone system and MX990 IR/RF universal remote provide additional convenience.
Fishing Systems and Cockpit Architecture
The GT70 is purpose-built for tournament sportfishing, with systems and features specifically configured to support the demands of offshore pursuit. Hydraulic twin triple-spreader outriggers provide precise bait and lure placement, while eight custom tuna tubes integrated into the transom livewell system create dedicated bait-holding capacity. Offshore Bait Solutions custom saddle bait tanks—removable for cleaning and maintenance—offer additional live-bait storage and circulation. The cockpit features an extra-large fish hold with additional livewell capacity, transom fish door for efficient processing, and a custom teaser reel hookup for establishing visual contact with game fish. A Release Marine Trillion fighting chair rated for heavy-tackle tournament work is positioned for optimal leverage and comfort during extended battles. The Release Marine Rocket Launcher provides multiple rod positions, while custom rod storage at the pilasters and cockpit rod holders (six total—three port, three starboard) accommodate the deep tackle inventory required for mixed-species offshore fishing. Cockpit climate control includes dedicated air conditioning with overhead vents, allowing crew to work in comfort during extended fishing sessions. A cockpit grill and Eskimo ice machine at the mezzanine level support crew provisioning and food service. The cockpit teaser reel outlets and tackle center organization reflect a design philosophy that prioritizes workflow efficiency during competitive fishing operations.
Teak Package and Aesthetic Customization
This GT70 is finished with a comprehensive full teak package that includes teak coaming boards, cockpit sole, covering boards, flybridge accent strip, helm pod with high-gloss finish, and mezzanine deck. The combination of teak and custom hull paint in anniversary silver metallic with blue topaz boot stripe creates a distinctive aesthetic that reflects the owner's attention to detail. A blacked-out buggy top in the tower provides sun protection while maintaining clean sight lines for fishing operations. Additional custom interior details include all interior doors sketched in face Dometic spot-zero system finishes, high-gloss teak interior woodwork, plexi-mirrored ceilings in the bow head, master head, and port head, and custom tower paint with two additional rod holders on the bridge. These refinements elevate the vessel beyond standard production specifications, reflecting an owner's commitment to both functionality and aesthetic coherence.
Accommodation and Interior Layout
The GT70 offers a five-stateroom, four-head arrangement—a significant upgrade from the standard three-stateroom layout—providing comfortable accommodations for an owner, crew, and guests during extended offshore operations. The master stateroom, forward stateroom, and three additional guest cabins are appointed with HMC mattress systems and finished in high-gloss teak. The four heads include the master head, crew stateroom head, and two additional heads serving the guest staterooms, ensuring adequate facilities for a full party. The galley is designed as a gourmet workspace, with full provisioning capability for extended cruising. The spacious salon features a Release Marine salon cocktail table, electric salon door, and 20-inch LED television, creating a social hub for entertaining and relaxation. A freshwater connection to the tower and 1,800-gallon-per-day watermaker ensure adequate fresh water for the five-stateroom configuration, while an Eskimo ice machine provides cold storage for provisions and beverages. Flybridge air conditioning and cockpit air conditioning with overhead vents maintain comfort throughout the vessel, while underwater lights (two units) and custom lighting throughout the interior enhance both ambiance and functionality. Rod storage in the companionway overhead maximizes use of vertical space, a practical detail reflecting the fishing-focused design.
