This 1970 Hatteras 45 Convertible is a standout example of the legendary build quality and seakeeping that made Hatteras a household name among serious offshore anglers and cruisers. Powered by twin Detroit Diesel 8V71N engines with only 1,155 original hours, she blends timeless design with smart upgrades for modern usability.

Warm, rich oiled Brazilian Tigerwood interior joinery gives the salon a welcoming and refined feel, while features like reverse-cycle heating and cooling, a Kohler 6EOD generator, and Garmin GPS/radar ensure both comfort and capability at sea. A 2006 Novurania dinghy with 20hp Honda and SeaWise davit system make shore excursions effortless.
