CHAMPAGNE is an exceptional example of the Hatteras 74 Cockpit Motor Yacht — a heavily updated, low-hour, stabilized vessel with the care, protection, and mechanical investment serious Hatteras buyers look for. Built on the 65' Hatteras platform and completed by Hatteras of Lauderdale, she was delivered new as a 74 Cockpit Motor Yacht — not modified after delivery — featuring a full aft cockpit, 1,921 gallons of fuel capacity, and 600 gallons of water capacity.
Her Detroit Diesel 12V92TI engines were completely overhauled in 2018 and show under 500 hours since overhaul — 389 port and 460 starboard as of July 2026 — while the original generators were replaced with new Phasor diesel generators in 2017/2018, showing just 887 and 838 hours as of July 2026. Stabilized with Naiad roll stabilizers and equipped with bow and stern thrusters, Glendinning electronic controls, and three control stations, CHAMPAGNE offers the kind of capability, control, and confidence that make her especially compelling.
Since 2019, CHAMPAGNE has been kept in a covered slip in brackish water, offering meaningful protection from sun exposure and harsh saltwater conditions. Her independent SAMS survey found the bottom blister-free, rated the vessel above average in overall condition, and found her structurally sound.
A completely remodeled 2022 galley, redone owner's suite, fully rebuilt owner's head, (2026) updated systems, and excellent engine room presentation further separate CHAMPAGNE from the typical classic Hatteras offering. For buyers seeking Hatteras quality, cockpit utility, stabilized cruising, and a yacht that has clearly benefited from thoughtful stewardship, CHAMPAGNE deserves serious attention.

CHAMPAGNE is a 1989 Hatteras 74 Cockpit Motor Yacht located in Seabrook, Texas. She is a fiberglass twin-diesel aft-cockpit flybridge motor yacht with a lower pilothouse helm, upper flybridge helm, and aft cockpit control station. Her arrangement offers excellent liveaboard comfort, extended cruising capability, and confident docking control.
Delivered new as a 74 with the full Hatteras of Lauderdale cockpit, CHAMPAGNE offers utility few motor yachts in this class can match, along with generous tankage: 1,921 gallons of fuel, 600 gallons of water, and 215 gallons of holding.
Accommodations include a full-beam owner's suite aft, two additional guest staterooms, and forward crew/guest quarters with a private head and shower — four heads in total. This layout provides excellent flexibility for owner operation, extended family cruising, guests, or crew.
Interior highlights include a professionally remodeled 2022 galley with quartzite countertops, solid mahogany cabinetry, high-end Bosch appliances, Intra 24V dimmable LED lighting, and updated finishes throughout. The owner's suite has been redone, the owner's head fully rebuilt with high end components (Herreshoff style), and recent soft goods include a brand-new custom king mattress and new custom-fitted carpet.
CHAMPAGNE is powered by twin Detroit Diesel 12V92TI engines rated at 700 HP each. Both engines were completely overhauled in 2018 and show under 500 hours since overhaul — 389 port and 460 starboard as of July 2026. The surveyor noted that the engines "show like much newer motors with no leaks noted," a statement that speaks directly to their presentation and care. Each engine is served by triple Racor fuel/water separators.
The engine room itself is one of CHAMPAGNE's standout features — freshly repainted in 2026, with the engine room and bilges presenting spotless and dry throughout. Additional machinery includes ZF transmissions, PYI dripless shaft seals, 3" stainless shafts, and twin 5-blade bronze propellers. The props were balanced and treated with Propspeed in 2026, and matching spare props are aboard.
The main saloon is located aft of the galley and offers a warm, comfortable gathering space with rich joinery and updated finishes along with full Veloce-Nano Ceramic tint (all windows 2023). A flat-screen TV rises on an actuator lift, and the dining table expands to seat six to eight guests. A hinged door opens to the raised aft deck, with steps leading down to the cockpit, creating an easy flow for entertaining, relaxing aboard, or moving through the vessel.
The saloon presents as elegant, comfortable, and beautifully kept, consistent with CHAMPAGNE's overall condition and level of care.
A U-shaped dinette is located to starboard of the galley and features custom cushions. This area provides casual dining with good visibility and convenient access to the galley and lower helm area.
A major highlight aboard CHAMPAGNE is her completely remodeled 2022 galley. The space was professionally rebuilt as a custom remodel with solid custom mahogany cabinetry, quartzite countertops, Intra 24V dimmable LED lighting, and high-end Bosch appliances.
Galley equipment includes a Bosch upright refrigerator/freezer, Bosch dishwasher, 240V electric glass-top range and oven, microwave, and single stainless-steel sink. The result is a warm, refined, and highly functional onboard galley that respects the classic Hatteras interior while bringing the space firmly up to modern expectations.
The surveyor rated the galley as well maintained and in above-average condition.
The full-beam owner's suite is located aft and is accessed privately from the saloon. This space has been redone throughout, with rich joinery, custom dimmable Invtra 24V LED lighting, a king-size bed with a brand-new custom mattress, and new custom-fitted removable carpet. A full-sized walk-in cedar-lined closet, abundant built-in drawer storage on both sides, and opening portlights with custom shades & lamps complete the space.
The owner's suite offers the volume, privacy, and comfort expected aboard a Hatteras cockpit motor yacht of this size, while the recent updates give the space a fresh, high-end presentation.
Owner's Head
The private owner's en-suite head has been fully rebuilt in 2026 to a stunning standard as a custom remodel matching the galley's craftsmanship, finished in the classic Herreshoff style — crisp white paired with varnished mahogany. The walk-in porcelain shower features a frameless glass sliding door with brass hardware and a hex-tile shower pan, complemented by herringbone-laid marble flooring throughout. Solid custom mahogany cabinetry with a mahogany countertop, a mahogany-trimmed mirror, Perrin & Rowe natural brass fixtures, and a Sherle Wagoner hand-painted custom ceramic sink complete the space. The head system is freshwater flush.
This is a meaningful update for buyers who value both comfort and long-term usability aboard.
The amidship queen guest stateroom is located to port and offers comfortable guest accommodations with warm teak interior finishes. A head and shower are located to starboard, providing convenient comfort for guests.
The port-side guest stateroom features twin berths, with a head and shower conveniently located to starboard. This is a flexible space well suited for family, guests, or extended cruising accommodations.
The forward crew or guest stateroom is located in the forepeak and includes a private head and shower aft to port. This area provides excellent flexibility as either crew quarters, additional guest space, or storage depending on ownership style.
CHAMPAGNE is equipped with four heads total, including 24V Raritan electric-flush heads. All heads have been converted to freshwater flush — a significant upgrade from the saltwater systems Hatteras originally delivered, reducing odor, scale, and maintenance. All waste lines were replaced, and the plumbing was noted as reinforced and in sound condition. The vessel features separate walk-in shower stalls throughout.
The lower pilothouse helm features bench seating, storage, Hynautic hydraulic steering, analog and digital engine gauges, Meretraon Tank Monitor, Garmin GHC20 autopilot, Garmin 7612xsv chartplotter and Glendinning electronic engine controls added in 2024.
This station provides excellent visibility, protected operation, and direct access to the vessel's main control systems.
The upper flybridge includes a second full helm station with Garmin GPS, autopilot,VHF radios, bow and stern thruster controls, stabilizer controls, compass, dual captain's chairs, a Jatoba wood table, Wetbar w/ sink, refrigerator, Quartzite counter tops, built-in storage, three-sided enclosures, guest seating, and a Bimini top. Aft of the bridge is dinghy storage served by a Marquipt 1500 davit.
The flybridge offers excellent sightlines and outdoor operating comfort, making it a highly usable command area for cruising and docking.
CHAMPAGNE is equipped with a full Garmin electronics suite including four Garmin 7612XSV chartplotters, Garmin GHC20 autopilot and radar at both helm stations, depth finder/sonar, and two VHF radios. A Maretron tank monitoring system provides real-time levels for fuel, fresh water, and black water. The electronics are powered through a Newmar 24V-to-12V DC converter.
CHAMPAGNE is equipped with 240V/50A shore power using dual cords with electric retractors, along with a 24V DC house system. All lighting throughout the vessel is 24V LED and dimmable. Most of the electrical system has been updated with new marine-grade stranded wiring, and the surveyor found the accessible wiring to be in excellent condition.
Additional electrical equipment includes Victron chargers and dedicated AGM battery banks for the bow thruster, stern thruster, and generators, all updated in 2024. Batteries are installed in secured, covered boxes.
The original generators were replaced with new Phasor diesel generators in 2017/2018 — replaced, not rebuilt. As of July 2026, they show 887 and 838 hours respectively, adding another major layer of confidence for buyers evaluating CHAMPAGNE's mechanical condition.
Mechanical equipment includes Naiad roll stabilizers, Vetus bow and stern thrusters, Glendinning electronic engine controls, Hynautic hydraulic steering, and seven Cruisair reverse-cycle air-conditioning units.
The larger A/C units are newer, with an upsized pump, larger intake and larger lines for improved flow. The vessel is also equipped with a freshwater system, 120V pressure pump, and Rheem 30-gallon water heater.
The raised aft deck opens from the saloon and provides an excellent entertaining and transition space. The vessel's third control station is located here to port, with Glendinning engine controls and bow and stern thruster controls for confident short-handed docking. Steps lead down to the cockpit, allowing easy movement between the interior, aft deck, and cockpit.
The full aft cockpit is a defining feature of CHAMPAGNE's design, completed by Hatteras of Lauderdale as part of her original delivery. Served by the adjacent aft docking station, the cockpit makes short-handed docking and close-quarters maneuvering significantly easier.
Boarding access is available port and starboard.
CHAMPAGNE features fiberglass/plywood sandwich decks with sprayed non-skid. The decks were reported as sound throughout, with cosmetics above average for age. The bow lounge area includes anchor windlass controls, and the teak railing presents in beautiful condition.
CHAMPAGNE has a solid fiberglass modified-V hull with a prop-protecting keel, Classic Hatteras Off-White hull color, and black trim stripes. Her hull finish is painted/gelcoat, and cosmetics are above average.
The independent survey found the bottom blister-free, with fresh active antifouling. All original thru-hulls have been replaced. Recent yard work includes haul-out, hull wax, fresh bottom paint, prop balancing for the main and spare propellers, and Propspeed application (2026).
CHAMPAGNE represents a rare opportunity to acquire a thoughtfully updated and carefully preserved Hatteras 74 Cockpit Motor Yacht with low-hour overhauled Detroit Diesel power, new replacement Phasor generators, Naiad stabilizers, bow and stern thrusters, three Glendinning control stations, a custom remodeled galley, redone owner's suite, remodeled owner's head, and a strong independent survey.
Since 2019, she has been kept in a covered slip in brackish water, and her condition reflects that protection. A full independent SAMS survey is available to qualified buyers. Seller has offered to assist with delivery.
