Vessel was found to have termites which have since been exterminated. Total extent of the damage is unknown. All systems are reported to function as they should. Vessel and engine has been professionally maintained and operated all of its life.

Apparently this has an accepted offer. I'm curious what it went for.

This sold for $149k
Someone got a hell of a steel!

Not if it had termite infestation/damage as had been mentioned.

I guess it depends on how bad it was right?
Could be a train wreck for sure! But, just maybe, it was minor.
Wishing the new owner luck and a speedy recovery!

I just purchased a 74' Hatteras at auction. Prior owner's captain indicates all systems are operational. Boat is on the hard. What service/maintenance would experienced owners recommend prior to returning to the water? Bottom paint, bearings, seals, oil change, fuel filter, etc?

Thank you,
