This is the only one I have on this computer. Taken when I bought her in 2007. Now has a full enclosure that stays rolled up unless its cold. She had a full refit in 2002 by Sonny Middleton at Dog river Marina . The owner had had her for quite a few years and had rebuilt the 692's once - he...

Well, the fridge on my 45C II is due for replacement. It has me thinking of doing a bit of a refit. Over the past two seasons I have never used the stove and only use the fridge for sandwich stuff and coffee creamer. So, I'm thinking of taking out the fridge and turning that compartment into...

I am thinking about taking my 45c to florida for the winter. Anyone in Stuart have a recommendation for a good marina? Thanks, george

Greetings - I have newer SMX controls aboard my 45c and have read on the forum that I can set them to dehumidify. Unfortunately I do not have the manual. If anyone out there can post the instructions on how to put them on the dehumidify setting, I would be very appreciative. Thanks, george

In the brochures, some of the early Hatts have an "H" underlined with a "Check mark" - in some the check is forward and in some reversed. Doe anyone know the story of why the check in different directions and when is changed? Please post any pictures that you might have. I am considering...

You don't see teak covering boards on many Hatts - unlike Posts and Vikings. If you have a picture of a Hatt with teak covering boards and or a teak cockpit sole, please post!!! Thanks, george

Looking for a pair of salon chairs like Hatt used in the 1960's and 1970's - wood frame and cushions. Here is a link to the 45 Series I brochure picturing the perfect pair. http://www.hatterasowners.com/Brochures/45CO/45CB-0068.htm

What kind of premiums are you all paying for boats operated north of Florida? I just got a quote for a 1986 45c $250k hull value - $5500 and must stay out of Fl. $7500.00 deductable. Seems high to me. I'd like to shop this around. I have read the older thread and noted the suggested...

Wondering if any of you 45cII owners have recently replaced your refrigerator. I have been searching thru the archives and looking at some older threads. I figure someone may have gone throught this ordeal and has current suggestions for a brand and model. Thanks in advance!!!

Recently, I went on a sea trial of a 45C that had an aweful wood squeak on the port side up near the galley while running in the ocean (2 to 4) Is this normal for an old Hatteras? Any simple cures? Yes, there is some delamination detected by the sounding hammer but nothing really serious -...

Greetings - Anyone on the forum runnig QSM11's? I'm looking at a 1986 45c that has these engines with 535hp. There are some older threads that discuss these engines. However, I'd like any current feedback ya'll have to offer. Thanks, st.tully

Greetings all - This weekend I'm going to take a look at a 1985 36 Conv. She has 390hp 671's. Galley-up. I tried searching the forum for some insight on these little beauties but to no avail. I would be interested in your thoughts on seakeeping, performance, problem areas, etc. I note...

Can anyone comment on the performance to be expected from a 1970's 42 Conv. with 671N's? In reading the comments about the 43DC with 671N's, I'm worried that the 42Conv may just be a poor performer - it would be hard to have a conv and not be able to get it on a plane/ Many thanks, geo.

I may have found the right Hatt for me but she is in New England and I am in North Carolina. Has anyone used a good surveyor in New England that knows Hatts well? In particular, I want a surveyor that will really know how to look for coring issues. Thanks for your help. Cheers, st.tully

My on again off again search continues. I've been sidetracked lately and haven't kept-up with the Hatteras offerings that may have come-up this spring. Has anyone recently seen any particular jewel examples of a 53 MY or 58YF? CHeers, george in NC

In the late 80's early 90's at either Bahia MAr or Pier 66 there was a late model 53MY w/o a fly bridge. The gentleman who owner her had ordered her that way and later ordered a larger MY with the same delete. She also had a false smoke stack on top that made her look very retro. Anyone...

Here, I have learned a ton or more about Hatteras and boating. Are there any similar forums for the likes of Bertram, Post or Viking? Or any other boating forum that you all like to visit? Thanks.

Folks - Doea anyone have info or a brochure on the 45 Palm Beach Edition. Sam's doesn't have a brochure online. Thanks, george

There are quite a few yachts on the market that are on their 3rd or 4th rebuild. Is there a limit to how many can be done?

Does anyone know how many 58 YF or the 53 MY Hatteras produced? Also did Hatteras ever put 8v92's in either the 58 or 53 as original equipment? Thanks, george
