1981 Hatteras 61 Cockpit MY

The 1981 Hatteras 61 Cockpit MY is a 61-foot sedan-bridge yacht with a deep-V fiberglass hull designed for stability and smooth offshore performance. Twin Detroit 12V71 diesel engines, rebuilt in 2018 with only 300 hours since, deliver 960 hp combined and drive the boat to a cruising speed of 15 knots and maximum speed of 18 knots. The mechanical construction throughout reflects the solid engineering typical of classic Hatteras build quality.

The yacht features an aft cabin layout suited to extended cruising and living aboard. An electric windlass is installed for ground tackle handling. The beam of just over 18 feet provides good interior volume and deck space relative to the length.

The engines received a comprehensive rebuild in 2018, with minimal running hours logged since. The fiberglass hull and mechanical systems represent the durable, old-school construction that defines this era of Hatteras yachts.
