Hampton Yachts 580 Pilothouse

Luxury is on full display with the Hampton 580 Pilothouse, a popular China-built cruising yacht whose features compare well with motoryachts costing many thousands more. The 580's open floorplan gives the helmsmen a clear view from the pilothouse settee to the aft deck and creates an open and inviting salon/galley/pilothouse arrangement. Large salon windows provide panoramic views of the outdoors, and a stainless steel framed door opens to the covered aft deck. The galley and dinette are on the pilothouse level a few steps up from the spacious salon with its leather sofa, cherrywood coffee table, entertainment center, and twin barrel chairs. There are three staterooms and two full heads on the lower level including an amidships master suite and forward VIP cabin, both with walkaround queen beds. Just forward of the master stateroom is a utility area with pantry and separate washer and dryer. The standup engine room is accessed from the transom. A bow thruster, port and starboard pilothouse doors, and marble flooring are standard. Built on a solid fiberglass hull with a Kevlar-reinforced bottom and forward collision zone, Cummins 715hp QSM11 diesels cruise at 18 knots (20–21 knots top).
