anyone know the 45c Virgina down in Fla?

The wife and I are thinking of a 45 and we saw the 45c Virginia. Curious if anyone knows the boat or history on it?
thx

Do you have a link to the listing, if it's for sale?

Hi Jim

here's the link. it was a light ash interior, but it looks like the interior has been painted gray. We really like the 45 with the walk around queen bed. We'd prefer one with the original aformosia(sp?) interior, but the only ones avail like that are out of our price range. There's a gorgeous one in Europe, but I think it would be cost prohibitive to get it here. Only a few series II available in this market.

thanks
Joe

Clean boat. Interior reminds me of an old Mainship. Almost looks pastel in the pics but I'm just about color blind anyway. Love the lines of the 45.

From the listing (the photos are not all they could be, frankly) this appears to be as clean boat with few updates. The interior seems original, I did not see any engine room photos. If it would pass a serious hull and engine/genset survey, and the seller would negotiate on the price, this could be a boat that you buy and gradually improve over the years you own it. This is one of my favorite Hatteras convertibles; if I had ever moved up to a larger Hatteras, it would have been a Series II 45C; they are lovely boats. As for the interior, I like the afromosia much better, but that wouldn't stop me...

I agree. I asked for more pics, we'll see. Just hoping someone knows some of the history on the boat.

All I know about it is that it's been on the market for well over a year. When we started looking for a Hatt convertible/SF it was on the market... which would've been September of 2020.

Good luck!
