    Typical Hatteras issues

    I have been a long time Grand Banks owner (50' woody for 14 years) and am looking for a 53' Hatteras to replace it with. It seems every boat type has it's own peculiar, recurring issues. What might they be for a 53' Hatteras? Thanks,Bob

    Look in the FAQs there's an extensive write-up on what to look at when shopping for a 53.
