Our Thoughts

The 2024 HCB 65 Estrella represents a purpose-built offshore platform engineered for serious cruising and tournament fishing. This 65-foot center console combines the speed and maneuverability expected of a performance fishing vessel with the comfort and amenities typically reserved for larger motor yachts.

Power and Performance

Five 600-horsepower Mercury Verado engines deliver 3,000 total horsepower, enabling the 65 Estrella to cruise comfortably at 40 knots while achieving a maximum speed of 50 knots. The joystick steering system with proportional bow and stern thrusters simplifies handling in tight quarters and at the dock, while trim tabs and the integrated Seakeeper 9 gyro stabilizer work together to optimize ride quality and reduce roll in offshore conditions. With a 1,730-gallon fuel capacity, the vessel supports extended offshore operations without compromising range.

Electronics and Navigation

Three 24-inch Garmin MFD displays with full manual redundancy form the backbone of the helm station, providing comprehensive chart plotting, sonar, and system monitoring. The Garmin suite includes a 6-foot open array radar upgraded to 25 kilowatts, GSD 26 sounder, AIS, side-scan sonar, and VHF radio with handset and remote speaker. An ACR100 spotlight and FLIR thermal imaging camera further enhance situational awareness and night operations. The CZone integrated digital switching system manages all AC and DC electrical functions through the Garmin displays, streamlining complexity and reducing panel clutter.

Fishing-Focused Layout

The cockpit is comprehensively equipped for serious fishing. Twelve forward gunwale rod holders, nine transom aft rod holders, and bow rod storage accommodate a full complement of tackle. Twin 85-gallon Frigid Rigid baitwell systems with 2,000-gallon-per-hour primary pumps maintain live bait in optimal condition, while dual 160-gallon insulated fishboxes with refrigerated chill plates and 12-volt compressors preserve the catch. Four integrated gunwale-mounted ice chests provide additional storage, and three cockpit refrigerators plus an icemaker support galley operations. A 22-foot carbon fiber telescoping outrigger system and cockpit rocket launcher enable effective trolling presentations across multiple spread configurations.

Cabin and Accommodations

Below deck, the 65 Estrella offers genuine cruising comfort. The master stateroom features a queen-size berth with soft décor package, while the salon converts to an additional bunk via a settee dinette. A pullman bunk with pull-down over the cabin settee provides a third sleeping area. The galley includes a sink, microwave, and dual-voltage refrigerator/freezer with white quartz countertops. A full head with macerating electric flush, 18-gallon holding tank, and dockside pump-out supports extended offshore passages. Dual 1,600-BTU air conditioning units serve the cabin and cockpit helm areas, while a 6-gallon water heater ensures hot water throughout. The salon features an overhead skylight with integrated privacy shade and a 49-inch 4K LED home theater system with mirror screen capability.

Seating and Comfort

Forward bow loungers port and starboard with backrests provide relaxed seating, while a five-person forward-facing U-shaped second row accommodates guests. Five helm chairs with swivel and vertical adjustment, fold-down

2024 HCB 65 Estrella: A Purpose-Built Offshore Center Console with Luxury Cruising Capability
The 2024 HCB 65 Estrella represents a significant evolution in the center console category—a 65-foot vessel that combines the operational agility and open-water capability of a working fishing platform with the comfort, accommodation, and stability systems traditionally associated with larger motor yachts. Powered by five 600-horsepower Mercury Verado outboard engines and equipped with advanced electronic systems, a full cabin with private master stateroom, and a Seakeeper 9 gyro stabilizer, this Estrella is engineered for serious offshore fishing, extended Caribbean cruising, or tournament competition. With only 250 hours on the engines and recently serviced throughout, this 2024 model is available in Naples , Florida.
Overview and Design Philosophy
HCB Yachts has positioned the 65 Estrella as a purpose-built offshore platform that refuses to compromise between performance and comfort. The 16-foot beam provides a wide, stable platform for rough-water operation while supporting expansive deck space for fishing, entertaining, and lounging. The custom blue hull and hand-laid solid hull bottom with Kevlar reinforcement reflect HCB's construction methodology, designed to handle the demands of offshore conditions while maintaining structural integrity across thousands of operational hours. The five-engine configuration—each a 600-horsepower Mercury Verado—delivers 3,000 total horsepower and positions this center console in the upper tier of performance and range. Cruising speed of 40 knots and a maximum speed of 50 knots enable efficient offshore transit while the 1,730-gallon fuel capacity supports extended range operations. This powertrain architecture also provides redundancy; with five independent engines, the Estrella can operate safely even if one engine requires attention, a significant advantage for offshore fishing expeditions and long-distance cruising.
Helm and Electronics Integration
The helm station reflects modern marine technology integration. Three 24-inch Garmin multifunction displays provide redundant navigation, fish-finding, and vessel monitoring across the entire helm console. The Garmin ecosystem includes a 6-foot, 25-kilowatt upgraded radar array, GSD 26 sounder with dual 1-kilowatt transducers, AIS side-scan sonar, Garmin autopilot, and VHF radio with remote speaker capability. This suite supports confident offshore navigation, real-time sonar interpretation, and comprehensive vessel awareness in any condition. The CZone integrated digital switching system, managed through the Garmin displays, consolidates AC and DC electrical management into a single interface. This approach eliminates traditional breaker panels and switch banks, replacing them with digital redundancy and programmable circuit logic. Manual override capability ensures that helm control remains available even if the digital system requires servicing. Steering is managed through a fully electric joystick system with integrated proportional bow and stern thrusters. This configuration transforms docking and tight-quarters maneuvering from a multi-person coordination task into single-handed operation. The joystick allows simultaneous control of thrust direction and magnitude, while the proportional thrusters respond intuitively to input, enabling precise positioning in marinas, anchorages, or alongside other vessels. The helm station includes five swivel chairs with vertical adjustment, fold-down footrests, and custom ladder backs—accommodating the captain, co-pilot, and observers. A 110-volt air conditioning system with dual 1,600-BTU units maintains comfort during extended helm time, particularly valuable in tropical climates where ambient temperatures and sun exposure create significant heat loads.
Seakeeper 9 Stabilization and Comfort Underway
The Seakeeper 9 gyro stabilizer addresses one of the primary challenges in center console design: maintaining comfort and stability in beam seas without the hull form limitations of larger monohulls. The gyroscope actively counteracts roll motion, reducing the amplitude of vessel heave and enabling more comfortable cruising speeds in moderate to rough conditions. For fishing operations, this stabilization improves angler safety and casting accuracy, particularly when working live bait or targeting species that require precise presentation.
Fishing Systems and Deck Configuration
The 65 Estrella's fishing architecture reflects both tournament-level capability and practical offshore fishing design. Twin 85-gallon Frigid Rigid baitwells with dual 2,000-GPH primary pumps support extended live-bait operations, maintaining water quality and temperature for demanding species like tuna, wahoo, and marlin. Four integrated gunwale-mounted ice chests at 11.5 gallons each provide supplementary bait and tackle storage. Two 160-gallon insulated fish boxes with lids are positioned aft, providing secure, temperature-controlled storage for the catch. An optional refrigerated chill plate in the starboard mid-ship fish box with 12-volt compressor offers additional preservation capability for premium-quality fish handling. Rod storage is comprehensive: twelve forward gunwale rod holders, nine transom aft rod holders, a cockpit rocket launcher, and dedicated rod storage in the bow accommodate a full tournament complement of tackle. A 6-foot Gemlux carbon-fiber telescoping outrigger system on each side supports trolling operations and spreads the spread across a wider working area. The cockpit is laid out for efficient fishing and guest comfort. Transom cooler seats at 28 quarts port and starboard provide both storage and seating with cushions and backrests. A forward-facing, five-person U-shaped seating arrangement in the second row accommodates observers and additional anglers. Forward bow loungers with backrests provide premium seating for cruising and entertaining. Teak cockpit and bow countertops add durability and aesthetic refinement, while a power-lift fiberglass bow table with filler cushion creates a flexible entertaining and lounging platform. Two refrigerated cockpit units—one 2.6 cubic foot and one 1.5 cubic foot—plus an icemaker support beverage service and food storage during extended outings.
Cabin Accommodations and Interior Comfort
The cabin layout prioritizes privacy and comfort for extended cruising. The master stateroom features a queen-size berth with soft décor package including fitted sheets, bedspread, pillows, and wall coverings. A 24-inch television in the master stateroom provides entertainment and information access. The salon features an overhead skylight with integrated privacy shade, a settee with dinette that converts to a bunk, and a soft décor package matching the master stateroom. A Pullman bunk with pull-down capability over the cabin settee provides additional sleeping capacity, enabling accommodation for multiple guests or crew. A dedicated head system with macerating electric flush, 18-gallon holding tank, overboard discharge, and dockside pump-out supports extended cruising independence. The shower enclosure features tempered glass and a teak grated floor, providing a full-service freshwater shower capability. The galley includes a sink, microwave, and white quartz countertops, integrated with 2.6 cubic foot refrigerator and 1.5 cubic foot freezer units in stainless steel. This setup supports meal preparation for extended voyages without requiring return to a dock or resort. Interior finishes reflect attention to detail: high-gloss flooring in the cabin, white quartz countertops in the salon and head, and solid hardwood cabinetry throughout. These materials balance durability with aesthetic refinement, supporting both active use and formal entertaining.
Climate Control and Onboard Systems
Dual 1,600-BTU air conditioning units serve the cabin and cockpit, maintaining comfort in tropical climates and during warm-weather cruising. A 6-gallon water heater supports hot-water showers and galley operations. Fresh and raw water washdowns with 25-foot retractable hose reels facilitate deck cleaning and bait station management. A 20-kilowatt Northern Lights generator provides reliable AC power generation, supporting air conditioning, galley appliances, entertainment systems, and battery charging while at anchor or away from shore power. The 50-amp Glendinning shore power reel with dual 50-foot cords enables efficient connection to dock-side power infrastructure.
Entertainment and Audio Systems
A JL Audio stereo system with six 7.7-inch speakers, six 8.8-inch speakers, and four 10-inch subwoofers distributes audio throughout the vessel. A 49-inch 4K LED television in the salon with mirror screen capability and integrated gaming ports supports entertainment and information display. Satellite television capability enables news, weather, and entertainment access while cruising.
