I have always thougth of Hatteras as a high end boats and I read Pascoe's comment on Hatteras of "good in all respects". I have never been on a larger Chris Craft such as a Commander 42 or a Pacemaker 40 Convertible.

So my question is this? How do the other makes stack up against a Hatt. if we are talking 40-45ft. convertible from the 1970-80 era.

What is the fit and finish like between them.

Are they all solid glass and not much between hull construction?
The performance of each seems to be in the same range.


Thanks for any insight.
