Nice looking boat but way overpriced. Need to cut that price in half if they really want to sell it
 
I always enjoy it when sellers describe a boat as 1990/2007.

There ARE boats which are completely stripped out to the bare hull and rebuilt with all new machinery and systems. I think some of them are eligible for a new hull number. But I don't think that happens in most instances. I suspect that most boats that are advertised as "----/----" are, in fact, boats that had a renovation in the second year- but not a complete rebuild from the inside out.

And, anyway, 2007 is now close on eight years ago.
 
Getting a new hull I'd is very difficult. Slane tried to with the 53 he converted to an express and wasn't able to do it. Hard to imagine what more could be done to a boat to make it new.
 
There's a company rebuilding Bert hulls. I wonder what they do for the hin. Is it new or do they use the old one. To be honest I'd rather have the original hin. It's a known quantity. Rebrand the boat and it may lose value.
 
Agreed. The outfit redoing Bertram 31s is up here in the Chesapeake, Worton Creek Marina, and their boats are totally gutted and rebuilt. And they do not have new hull IDs as far as I know.

I think the quality of the work and who did it means a lot more than a supposed new year of manufacture.

Thats about what HATTABOY sold for about 3 years ago about the same boat...I belive it is in Nantucket Or Marthas Vineyard now so i hear. I saw this boat in Marlin Magazine and went to the sight. This boat may have more done to it than HATTABOY.

LETS SEE
a 45 with tired engines and old paint and electronics good buy 70,000
new paint and curtains 45,000
electronics 20,000
New engines and installed 170,000 ?
ac they have 3 compressors 8,000
this and that 20.000
new shafts and wheels 12,000

Tim you know it's not about how much was spent. Taking a 100K boat and putting another 300K in it won't give you a 400K boat it gives you an exceptional 125-150K boat. That's the harsh reality. You may get lucky and find someone willing to pay the premium but the chances are slim to none. My boat has had a ton of custom work done to the interior and lots of other goodies like new davit, TNT lift etc. I know I couldn't replace it for what it would sell for.

!00% correct you missed my point if you want a qsm 45 you are going to pay about 300. Seems all the good ones are goung for about that, You certainly can not bild one for that
 
There is a 45 with QSMs for sale up here for around 150K ask. Does not need much to bring it up to snuff although it is a dated interior with Vberth etc. But a good place to start from.

I can't inagine anyone paying 300K for a 25 year old 45C. You can buy a late '90s 50C w3406 Cats for not too much more.
 
Well, I think the owner of this boat is going to get an education in economic realities. As much as I like the 45C with these engines, I'd make the same choice you mentioned.
 
Hey guys
thanks for your comments on my 45 hatteras fog cutter. the boat is awesome and i love it very much but i am ready to move up to a larger boat with a 3rd stateroom and galley up is my main requirement. so the new boat could be anything from a late model 50 to 54 hatteras sportfish or a 52 viking 2002 to 2004.

i have to sell my boat first so your comments were all well taken and i understand the main stubling point in any sale is the price. i think that if a knowledgeable boater looks at the fog cutter they will realize the value for the price. you will be hard pressed to find equal value on the market today.

i have just added granite counter tops and and all new delta faucets to the galley and both bathrooms. the boat is in great shape and is ready to do what ever the new owns may what to with this boat with out spending a dime other than the agreed purchase price.

no extra money is needed. i have many friends who buy boats and brag that they got a supper deal and stoled the boat only to realize that they had to spend 100k or more after they bought the so called great deal.. anyway thanks for the comments if she does not sell in the next couple of months i will list the boat with a broker. so who do you guys recommend for a good hatteras market area to handle the sale?
thanks chris
