This 1978 Hatteras 42 Convertible is a classic fiberglass sportfisher powered by a single Yanmar diesel engine producing 530 horsepower. The boat was re-powered in 2009 and has logged approximately 1200 hours since. It cruises at 23–25 knots, burning roughly 34 gallons per hour at cruise speed, with a top speed near 31 knots.
The interior received a complete refit in 2023, which included new appliances, LED lighting, soft furnishings, and galley upgrades. Electronics were also fully updated in 2023 and again in 2025, with a new Garmin 8612 multifunction display added most recently. The audio system features new JL Audio subwoofers, midrange speakers, and amplifiers installed in 2025. Starlink connectivity and an Amazon FireStick are on board for entertainment and communication.
The hull received a complete Awlgrip paint job in 2023. In May 2025, the bottom was repainted, cutlass bearings were serviced, five new underwater lights were installed, and propeller protection was applied. A Phasor generator was fitted in 2009.
