Used Hatteras 77 Sportfish Yacht
For Sale

DESCRIPTION

Hull shape is a seamless convex form transitioning from fine modified-V with high flared bow to a variable deadrise, around 22-degrees midships to a virtually flat 2-degrees at transom. This design adds lift and stability when underway, combined with other elements, such as side strakes that deflect spray along with enhancing lift. The wide 22ft beam also aids stability, besides creating immense interior and exterior spaces. The 77C’s large mass and weight driven by powerful twin diesels in an efficiently designed hull, plow through rough seas without shuddering or pounding. This superb seakeeping ability is why Hatteras was founded in 1960 with the first 41ft fiberglass sportfish “convertible” (a term originated by founder Willis Slane) and is known for worldwide.

The spacious 192 sq ft cockpit is the focus of the boat’s fishability. Amenities include a transom door capable of hauling in massive gamefish, two 65” in-deck macerated fishboxes with gas-assist struts (one can be rigged as a livewell), 10-cubic ft bait freezer, storage tubs, and optional bait wells that are modular drop-in units for custom positioning in the mezzanine levels, and stainless-steel lined tackle drawers. Owner could opt for another fishbox molded into the transom. The mezzanine level features 25 sq ft of cushioned seating for watching lines or enjoying the action under cover of the extended flybridge overhang. Standard mezzanine configuration has the bait freezer located outboard on the upper level and on the lower level, two 20-gal. storage tubs are installed to starboard and a third is to port. The bait and tackle center with drawers is set to port. The steps leading to sliding door entry to main cabin contain a refrigerated drink box and a wet storage compartment for mop heads and chamois. Ladder to aft deck of flybridge is portside of top step, next to mezzanine seat. Center mezzanine seat is hinged for engine room access. Flush mounted rod holders line the cockpit sides. A built-in deck plate supports an optional fighting chair. Seawater and freshwater washdown outlets and shore water connections feature the Hatteras patented quick disconnect. Optional drop-down mezzanine control panel. Hatteras could customize the fishing gear and amenities to the owners personal fishing style and preferences.

Galley and dinette are forward on same level. Just inside the sliding door from cockpit, is a day head to port aft, under the stairs. This was a new feature with the 77 Convertible.
