Ok, I'll ask - Is a shaft coupling so disastrous as to result in a total loss insurance claim? Wondering what would be involved? If not, wonder why this Hatt is now in purgatory? http://www.yachtworld.com/boats/1980/Hatteras-58-Motor-Yacht-2980567/Annapolis/MD/United-States#.V3fA3bgrKM8

Anyone know - What year did they add the separate showers in the master and guest head in the 53MY? First version had a shared one right? I've seen a few like that.

Finally threw in the towel today on my month long pending Hatteras purchase. After multiple delays trying to get the survey done due to a series of issues - weather, mechanical, and more - the seller announced they would not extend the contract at the same price. As I understand it, they want...

Anyone going? Not what is used to be, but should be good weather for a day in naptown - except for Friday when I am planning to go. But after today at the (other) Show, I can't complain. Specatular day. And seems things are back a bit, def better than past years.

This could be the first of several, so thanks in advance. In prep for survey, lets say boat bottom is ok, not too much growth, so basic short haul scrape should do it. But - if props/shaft/rudders are pretty heavily fouled - I am assuming these should be cleaned off good by the pro's for the...

Zeroing in on my "first" Hatteras - part of moving from sailboats back to power, where I started many years ago. But never a Hatteras, despite coveting every one I see. This one is a '86 43MY, CAT3208's. All original, fairly good shape from first looks, low hours, and most importantly...

Looking for recommendations for surveyors and/haulout yard near Palm Coast for pre-purchase survey. Know the area some, but not an expert by any stretch. North to St. Aug - Comachee YY? Better names/places? South to Daytona - names/places? Appreciate any info.

Be careful. A while back, folks were calling this one "unique" .....

This may have been posted already, but ... I walk by this boat daily on the Balto waterfront. It always gets my attention. Thought I would put it here so maybe it finds a nice home. I know nothing more, but it looks like a lot of boat for the price, at least to a neophyte...

Anyone know? I have not able to get on YW site for day or so. Issues there or just my location the hinterlands? Going through withdrawal as I cannot peruse the listings while dealing with extended family marathons.

Posting in Baltimore CL says so: http://baltimore.craigslist.org/boa/4088216381.html
