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.Scott

Re: 53 hatteras
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 southPascal
