Good afternoon and hello everyone! I am delighted to be marking 2 weeks as full owner of our 1986 Hatteras 54' MY, Pau Hana. I am an old Coastie, with quite a bit of sea time, but all of it was on ships a little bigger than this. We're homeported in Fort Myers, FL and transited the OkeeChobee Waterway from Stuart where we purchased the vessel about a week ago. Running into some challenges, and already have a 23 item known issue worklist - none of which is critical while dockside - but glad to see a Hatteras owners forum, and the previous owner said Sam's Marine is the go-to for Hatteras info and parts. I'm sure I will have questions, and may be able to answer some. In the meantime, cheers!

Welcome! Many years on this forum, but only a few weeks ahead of you as an owner. 90% of what I know about these boats I learned here. A truly priceless resource....

She is a beautiful boat for sure, congratulations. My wife and I have just recently became owners of our first Hatteras, I have been spending a lot of time on this forum there is certainly a wealth of information to be had here. Welcome from a new user myself.

What do you mean I'm funny? Like I make you laugh funny? Like a clown funny?

Yep, welcome. When in doubt, remember our unofficial motto: This ain’t a place for folks with sensitive feelings.

Congrats and welcome. This is the one stop shop for anything Hatteras. Is that the 54 that was on C dock in Sunset Bay? If so I was just west of you on C22 with the 60MY we purchased in October 2019.
