1968 Hatteras 41 Twin Cabin
About This Yacht
This 1968 Hatteras 41 is a convertible fishing yacht with a deep-V, planing hull design built from solid fiberglass. The boat measures 42 feet in length with a 13-foot beam and features a raked stem with flared bow and hard chines. Two Cummins diesel engines deliver 770 horsepower combined, with a cruising speed of 15 knots. The hull is finished in white gelcoat with red boot stripes and includes a cored fiberglass transom with a port transom door, aluminum swim platform, and folding aluminum boarding ladder.
The yacht accommodates four single berths across two cabins, with two heads and additional spaces for crew or guests. Fuel capacity is 400 gallons and fresh water capacity is 150 gallons. The interior layout reflects the boat's dual purpose as both a comfortable cruising vessel and a working yacht. Structural elements including bulkheads, stringers, and the stem are solidly constructed with cored fiberglass reinforcement and secure tabbing.
The exterior shows moderate to heavy wear typical of its age and working history, including dock rash and oxidation on the gelcoat. The bilges are clean with no significant water accumulation, though general detailing is recommended. Bilge limber holes and chain locker drainage are present and functional. The boat's solid fiberglass construction, twin diesel engines, and established accommodation spaces make it a capable platform for extended cruising or commercial operation.
