Description

This classic example of a Jack Hargrave designed Hatteras motor yacht is in very good condition for her pampered service since 1996. Her four stateroom four head layout, full beam salon, enclosed fly bridge with hardtop, and forward exterior decks make her open and roomy.

Powered by 12 V 92 electronic Detroit Diesels coupled to ZF gears. She is economical at

displacement speeds yet capable of planing speeds of 20 knots. Bow and stern thrusters and NAIAD active fin stabilizers make operating her smooth and pleasurable. Twin Onan 21.5 KW generators provide ample power while away from shore anchored at your favorite cove with an abundance of water supplied by your Cruise/RO 60 GPH watermaker!

PORT main hours 2748 STBD main hrs. 2813 FWD GEN hours 1912.5 AFT GEN hours 2411.5

Update Summary May 2018 to Current

This is a highlight of the major upgrades done under current ownership. It is by no means a complete list of improvements.

A/C System Upgrades:

Remove factory strainers from under mid-cabin floor and install larger thru hull valves and larger strainers in the engine room. Fabricate all new manifolds both intake and discharge of schedule 80 pvc at the compressors with new hoses, and both circula8on pumps being rebuilt. New a/c compressor was installed for the Galley. New Flagship Marine all in one ac units with heat strips were installed in the forward and mid-staterooms. These units eliminate the reversing valve and the compressor running on the heat cycle extending their life span.

Machinery Space:

Replaced the bulky air compressor with new compact ultra-quiet aluminum air compressor by California Air. This was installed on a new shelf over the transformers crea8ng extra space. Removed old storage box from floor and moved the generator wet mufflers back creating more accessibility to the entire space.

Updated black water sewage system, by eliminating the overboard discharge thru hull valves with new hoses straight to the holding tank. The thru hulls were then capped. The pump for the bunk room head was moved into the machinery space from under forward bunk to minimize the length of run. The pump out and vent hoses were also replaced at this

time.

Electronics:

A major electronic upgrade was completed in 2020. This included a new Garmin 8616 XSV touchscreen in pilot house, Garmin 8624 GPS on flybridge, SIMRAD 8648 autopilot, and Garmin 18-mile radar dome. Eight new high-resolu8on cameras and a monitor were installed with enhanced night vision on the forward and the center aft units.

Hall Out 2021:

Wet blasted old bottom paint and repaired fourteen blisters. Applied two new coats of bottom paint, three from the chine to the water line. Removed stabilizer fins to install new seals. The five forward pilot house windows were removed and resealed. Additionally, stress cracks in the vertical supports were repaired and the area was repainted.

Misc. Improvements 2022-2023:

New canvas installed on deck chairs. New isinglass/canvas surround installed on fly bridge. Replaced battery charger with new three bank electronic unit and four new start batteries. Rebuilt steering cylinder. Replaced fresh water pump. Rebuilt Hatteras systems monitor board.

And yes, we have every receipt down to every nut and bolt! Many of the previous owners’ records are also on board. As is, all the factory supplied manuals including the blueprints.
