Hampton Yatchs is proud to announce the introduction of the Hampton 680 Pilothouse. Like all Hampton yachts, the Hampton 680 is designed and built for comfortable, safe, and dependable cruising. The attention to detail in every facet of construction on the Hampton 680 is what every discerning yacht owner would expect in a semi-custom yacht. It continues to reflect Hampton Yachts' uncompromising commitment to superior marine yacht design and construction.
Hampton's in house for boat design team has spent many years refining the Pilothouse yacht concept. This solidly built cruiser with covered side decks features furniture for boat quality interiors custom designed to each owner's specifications. The wide 18' 4" beam on the Hampton 680 allows for large and comfortable living space with luxurious amenities.
The planing hull of the Hampton 680 incorporates a modified deep-V design with high forward deadrise sections for a smooth entry in head seas and flatter aft sections with reverse chines to provide an efficient planning surface, resulting in a comfortable, stable, and safe ride. This hull design also incorporates propeller for boat tunnels to lower the boat propeller shaft angle for greater efficiency and directional stability. The 100% hand laid fiberglass hull is molded in one piece with five outer layers of vinylester resin for boat for blister resistance. The hull is solid fiberglass reinforced with 2 layers of Kevlar from chine to chine and 3 layers of Kevlar in fwd collision zone. The deck, deckhouse, and flybridge are cored with high strength "Divinycell" using "Vacuum Bag for boats" construction technique for maximum strength to weight ratio .
