Where are the 58 Tri-Cabins?
The Admiral and I looked at a 58' Tri-Cabin, early 70's version a few years ago. They were not the wide-bodies, but seemed to be stretched 53 footers. Try as I might, I do find any of them on Yachtworld for sale these days. Are they around, are just that few of them, or do the owners simply hang on to them?
Re: Where are the 58 Tri-Cabins?
The 58 MY series one is similar to a 53MY in that it has the split engine rooms. The 58 Tri Cabin, looks more like a 43DC like you have with a lower salon with the engine room below that. Which one are you searching for?
58 MY series II

I looked at a few about 20 years ago . Two of them had 12-V71Ns , both in tremendous shape, one was in Annapolis , owned by a retired Admiral. I loved the classic lines ,much like a Burger that I could not afford! I too wonder where they went. Not many older classic boats are here in Miami.
Re: Where are the 58 Tri-Cabins?
I love them too, to me a 63’ triple cabin with a cockpit would be just about perfect!

There were a few for a while, at the moment this is the only one for sale that I am aware of.....
It's a non starter for me with the engines under the lower salon floor with no standing height.

That answer is simple. Go to the 70 footer series I of the same design. They have stand up engineroom. IMHO with the lines drawn out to 70 ft it's a more graceful profile.

Why didn't I think of that! :p And yes, those are VERY nice looking boats.

I still think the 58TC is the prettiest boat Hatteras ever built. I know of only one that’s in really nice condition, and it may be coming back onto the market by its current liveaboard owners.

Yes, this one doesn't even look good in the pictures.
Moving furniture every time you want to work on the motors is a PITA.
