    53 hatteras

    I am looking to buy a 53 hatteras. I found 2 of interest. Does anyone know Jimmy's Girl ? She is in Mobile Alabama, has cummins CT6BAs installed (used 400- hrs. running take-outs) in 2012.
    Asking price 110K.

    The second boat is in New Orleans...a 53 ED. This boat is all original... 871ti, niaid stabilizers, but I don't believe that the owner spent much on maintaining the systems. Asking price is 130K.

    Any suggestions?

    This might be too simple but I would get them both surveyed by someone knowledgeable of Hatteras yachts and then decide based upon which model I prefer.

    My guess is neither one will plane. Both seem to be priced in line with each other. I'd look at them before a survey and seatrial.

    Remember most sellers will not allow a survey or seatrial until under contract.

    This.

    Have you laid eyes on either one? You need to root through them yourself. Pictures don't tell you much.

    What is a CT6BA? Afaik it s either 6BTA or 6CTA. What power are they claiming?

    The naiads are a big plus if they work, although personally I m not a big fan of extended deckhouse. It really reduce the amount of air in the aft deck. Not a big deal up north but way too hot down south
