Re: 1988 Hatteras 68 Cockpit Motor Yacht
I was interested in that 68 footer. However after a thorough investigation there seems to be a very bad electrical problem with this boat. It is not left the slip in years. Just too much for me to take on. Needs a complete remodel inside. Very dated inside but it was the electrical issue that stopped me dead in the tracks. I'm not sure if you've ever tried to run new electrical in about that size but it's overwhelming. Not to mention the price is about 100,000 over where it should be and that is directly from the broker. Keep looking.

Re: 1988 Hatteras 68 Cockpit Motor Yacht
The boat is identical to mine, except cockpit. I've got the 63, and ironically Hatteras called both models the 63. It is a great boat, cruise about 14kts, top about 19kts. Very livable and travels well as well. Be sure it's stablized. You'll love the Engine Room space.

Re: 1988 Hatteras 68 Cockpit Motor Yacht
thats a fact,
which is what the move to California is all about.. The kids want us closer to them. and since we will no doubt need them close in a few years we are moving. Id like a bigger boat and a house but I cant do both, so its either a bigger boat and a little condo, or keep the boat I have and buy a house
My wife is online now, looking at houses, and condos so there's no telling how this is going to work outLast edited by ronparise; 02-09-2017 at 08:55 AM.

Re: 1988 Hatteras 68 Cockpit Motor Yacht
Don't get scared when you see the house prices in the San Diego area, you can buy a lot of boat for a lot less than a house or condo, however slip prices are also really high here. John

Re: 1988 Hatteras 68 Cockpit Motor Yacht
I recently sold a modest 2000 sq foot 3 hr 2 ba house in north county San Diego for $700,000. My liveaboard slip fees are $1800 a month.
Looking for a 80 plus foot yacht
