I saw this boat almost a year ago but was out of my thoughts as a good buy or a smart buy so i just walked. The owner has pased leaving the family to look after it no one has interest.It has sat for almost a year with someone going to the boat about once every week cleaning and starting it up. The asking price was 399,ooo totally off the screen. The boat was relisted about 4 months ago at approximately 150000. I went and looked again with the broker and later met the keeper in hand was a file of what had been spent and work done. It amounted to just short of 360.000. The engines are tired with 2000 hours the generator shows about 200,000 but it was replaces last year and the meater not changed or updated it has less than 50 or so. The whole boat has been striped of all wire and panels and redone. The list goes on and on. So i made a offer and it was excepted go to survay tuesday.
Intent I purchased a pair of 3406 cats with less than 1000 hours so here we go. I have been in touch with Hatteras refit boys the cruse numbers and top speed are super. The fuel burn is grate. The resuls a hot rod under 200.000 that looks good and is fast. I had my heart set on a 52c but i settled for a 46 Tim
