Steve, I'm in the Calif Delta, who are you talking about? Name of the boat? I thought I had met all the Hatteras owners up here and had not heard of anyone thinking of selling.Quote:

Hey Danny. You didn't say what part of the country you were in...
Nonetheless, I spotted a 53 Yacht Fish with a for sale sign on it in Key Largo this week. The phone number posted was 786-222-6133.

"Keys Condition". There was also a tired looking early 70s model 58 Yacht Fish in the same marina. Possibly not for sale, but looks like it should be. An old name on the bow said PLAYPEN.

OK, set me straight. Is it a YF or CMY? The upper outside deck seems small...... As in 53ED plus cockpit.
First and second pic is a 53 YF. Third pic is a 58 YF.
OK, that makes sense. Thanks.Quote:

As you indicated your interested in a 53 or 58YF, I would suggest considering the benefits of the cockpit, water access is easier, for swimming and dunk boarding, line and fender handling are easier. When stern in boarding is easier (no need to deploy the steps ).
As for the extended deck house, it has benefits, with the galley up an extra state room more living space, in the full beam area.
The 58YF carries a little more fuel, the 58CMY likely does also.
Yes Glory. The 58 Yacht Fish is a 53 Hatteras Walk Around Motor Yacht with an added cockpit. The 58 Cockpit Motor Yacht was essentially a 53 Hatteras ED model with an added cockpit. The 53 Yacht Fish is a 53 walk around with a smaller aft deck and a smaller stateroom area.
Well yes and no. The 53 has a much larger back deck than the 58 YF. The cockpit on the 58 YF eats into the back deck a little. The cockpit is definitely something to consider as it has many advantages..........especially as one ages
I am never able to get the emojis where I want them!
I'm starting to get my head around it, I think.
The cockpit is a must, and the "aging" argument is dead on. I have visions of my dear bride and I crawling up the ladder on a straight up stern in a dark, choppy anchorage after reposing at the local fine dining facility...... Sort of like the harbor pilots crawling up the side of a super tanker. Not so much. That, and the cockpit would be a fine place for a storage box, maybe a sunfish you know.....stuff.
We also want the back deck. Screening in the porch and spending pleasant evenings there with room for 4 or 6 would be fantastic. The larger salons are nice, but not worth it at the cost of the outside living.
So, right now it looks like the 58YF is perfect. The only thing I don't like about it, or most of the other 1510's is the down galley. I suspect that I will increase the utility of the back deck unit with a burner. Prep the simple meals downstairs, chill and heat upstairs. Dedicated china and silver upstairs. Even considering a small breakfast bar. But, I'm getting ahead of myself.
Just got last kid mostly off the payroll, house needs new roof blah blah blah......you get the idea. Little over 6 more years of work before I retire, although I'll be slowing down before hand, and hopefully be spending a winter month or two on the boat in warmer climes. It's a work in progress, We'll get there.
Danny:
I would agree with the utility of the cockpit. We have a 67' 1993 EDCMY and regardless of the tide can a spot that is easy to board (deck, cockpit, or swim platform). The 67' has a handrail on the cockpit that really simplifies boarding. Now that we are in our later 60's, we are increasingly appreciating the layout. Ours is a galley up that is quite similar to the 70' but with a smaller aft deck. The more common from a listing perspective is 67' CMY, which is galley down. I am not sure how many of the EDCMY were built since they were in the era of the luxury tax and downturn in new boats.
If you want the aft deck, then the 58' YF would more likely meet your expectations. I would encourage you to at least take a look at the 67'. Although the Admiral is not into blood in the cockpit, ours has the rocket launchers, mounting plate for outriggers, and rod holders so suspect she was fished at some point. Being a confirmed boataholic on ~#12, it is our favorite boat of all time.

johnjen50, the 58yf is the same as a 53my with the cockpit added. i stripped a teak deck off of my back porch area and you could see where the escape hatch on a 53 would have been, it is not needed on a 58yf because it has a back window in the master stateroom.
Hi Danny, my wife and I have 1975 58' Yachtfish that is very fresh, clean, loaded and ready. My wife wants something easier to handle (downsize) and I love our Yachtfish. If you have an interest feel free to call me 954-646-7525.Quote:

Since this post has morphed a bit into cockpit discussion (which is related to the original post). Just curious, when they added the cockpit in the above scenarios, did they move the rudders / running gear back? Having just owned our 58 MY (galley up) for a year, we can attest to how nice a cockpit would be. I know it is not trivial to add one, but wondering how much Hatt did other than adding the fiberglass section?Quote:

rudders and struts are moved aft on a 58yf, also the is more tanks (water, fuel) added under the cockpit
Got it, thanks. I'll start another string on this. I know people have added cockpits but I'm guessing they haven't always moved the running gear.Quote:
