Despite the luxury and amenities found inside, the place to be on the 56MY is clearly the flybridge, where beautiful views, fresh air and comfortable social areas provide the perfect backdrop for any cruise. The standard bridge arrangement features twin helm chairs and a centerline helm with space for multiple flat-screen displays and the electronics required for long-distance cruising. Guests will enjoy spacious seating to port along with exterior access to the aft deck. On the aft overhang, you'll find plenty of room for an optional davit and dinghy up to 10 feet long, or you can opt to store your dingy on the transom and enjoy an additional 208 square feet of entertaining space on the bridge that incorporates a sun lounge and additional seating (shown left).
Down below, the 135-square-foot aft deck compares favorably with much larger yachts. A molded circular settee provides comfortable seating for owner and guests, with quick access to steps both port and starboard that lead to the swim platform below. A more contemporary aft deck arrangement is available that provides more usable space, while improving the views aft. This design eliminates the standard fiberglass aft bulkhead and instead uses stainless-steel railing and tempered, laminated glass to encase the aft deck. In addition to its spatial benefits, the optional design will also find favor among Hatteras' European clientele, as it allows for the installation of an optional passerelle and davit that will facilitate Mediterranean-style docking and dingy storage on the swim platform.
Side decks measuring almost 13 inches wide allow for easy docking by the owner-operator and provide access to a storage locker to port and a molded-in bench seat on the bow deck.
