Has anyone had their whole hull wrapped ? Edward

That looks amazing, cost?

Don’t do it, the stern is probably fine, but I have seen some whole hull wraps and they only hold up until you hit a dock or piling. Even some of the best jobs I have seen have flaws where the wrap has to go around tight corners like ports. I guess if your boat never gets underway it might work ok. John

I've seen entire hulls wrapped on go fast and CC boats, but they live on lifts. Not sure I would try it on a boat that's kept in the water.

Pretty sure Michael Jordns 80 Viking Hull is wrapped

In the SF Bay commercial boats operated by Tidelines Marine are fully wrapped and see heavy use (look up online).

We intend to continue to care for her as the previous owners have done. To that end she is scheduled to go into the yard in January for a major refit and upgrade including Naiad Stabalizers, Bow Thruster, Water Maker, New Sanitation Hoses & Fresh Water Heads, Internet, Satellite, and more. She just completed a 1000 hour service and will be getting Walker Airseps and a few other”goodies”. Some may think it crazy (and it definitely is) to spend so much on an old boat - BUT - she is so rare a find & in such great condition we feel it is our responsibility as her new care takers to maintain her and upgrade her for the future. I hope you all will welcome us and we look forward to learning from those who are seasoned salts. Many Thanks.

Congrats! Sounds like you are about to break out 250k plus plus. Which yard will you use and where will home port be? Prob will be the best Hatteras 58 YF on the planet.
