Verdict

A large Hatteras-built charter yacht with strong guest capacity, four cabins, and a practical layout for events or day cruising. It is attractive for its space and proven charter utility, but the public record is inconsistent on year, capacity, and engine configuration, so buyers should verify the exact vessel specific

Pros

  • +Large 118 ft platform with Hatteras branding
  • +Four cabins and five bathrooms suit charter use
  • +Air conditioning and Wi‑Fi listed
  • +Autopilot and GPS included
  • +High guest capacity for event charters

Cons

  • Public sources conflict on year, capacity, and engine setup
  • Older hull design by modern standards
  • Performance figures vary across listings
  • Limited accommodation for overnight use relative to capacity

POSEIDON is a 118 ft Hatteras motor yacht with a classic charter-focused profile: large exterior volume, two-deck styling, and a layout centered on guest capacity rather than private-yacht exclusivity. Public listings consistently show four cabins and five bathrooms, with the vessel presented as a strong option for day charter and group events.

On the water, the yacht is reported with diesel power and autopilot/GPS, which points to straightforward, conventional handling for a boat of this size. Public sources disagree on the exact engine arrangement and total horsepower, so a confident assessment of top-end performance is not possible from the available data; still, it should be capable of steady coastal cruising rather than high-speed running.

Comfort is a clear strength. Air conditioning, Wi‑Fi, four cabins, and berths for overnight stays make it workable for mixed-use charters, while the overall volume should support social areas and circulation well. Value depends heavily on the exact configuration and refit state, because the public record shows conflicting build years and passenger limits, so condition and survey status matter more than the model name alone.
