Hatteras has long been recognized as one of America's great builders of substantial offshore cruising yachts, earning its reputation through rugged fiberglass construction, capable deep-V hull designs and yachts engineered for serious use. The classic Hatteras models of this era are particularly respected for their heavy construction, excellent interior volume, practical systems access and timeless styling, qualities that have allowed many of these yachts to remain capable cruising platforms decades after they were built.

The 48 Yachtfish combines traditional Hatteras motor-yacht comfort with the versatility of an aft cockpit and an exceptionally functional cruising layout. Her teak interior incorporates private bow and master staterooms, two heads with showers, additional cruising berth, salon/galley, dinette and lounge, while a lower steering position and second flybridge helm provide excellent all-weather operating flexibility. Power comes from twin Detroit Diesel 8V71 engines rated at 480 HP each and coupled to Allison 2:1 reduction gearboxes, giving this substantial Hatteras a proven 960 HP diesel propulsion package.

We started with an office conveniently located at the Toronto Outer Harbour Marina in downtown Toronto, only minutes from the bottom of the Don Valley Parkway and Lake Shore Road E. Subsequently we opened an office in Kingston and broker coverage on Georgian Bay and in 2016 we began serving the Vancouver area. Most recently we entered the Montreal, Vancouver Island, Kelowna, Lake Simcoe, Southwestern Ontario and Ottawa yacht market. We have really focused on establishing the best geographic catchment for both yacht sellers and buyers. We know the boat markets across Canada and most importantly we have the connections for buying and selling yachts not just from one location but from many locations. Our yacht brokerage often moves sold boats across the country and also to all points US and Caribbean connecting happy clients with the boat of their dreams. While most brokers focus on listed inventory in their own backyards, we focus on making yacht purchase connections with buyers and sellers across the country and beyond offering our purchasing clients more selection and listings not limited to one geographic area. For sellers it means bringing you more prospects, not just from one city but from across the country. As United City Yachts continues to expand and grow, we invite you to work with us and see the difference we can make to your yacht purchase or sale using our multi-channel approach to marketing yachts.
