This classic 45 Hatteras is a legendary fishing platform. The boat has been set up for hardcore fishing and has ample accommodations for family or crew.
The spacious cockpit has been updated with a Coosa deck, Coosa mezzanine, and Coosa drink box. Two massive live wells are plumbed on both sides of the fighting chair. A massive fish box was made in the transom and is plumbed to make an additional live well. Large spray rails were installed by Merrit's boat yard.
There are plenty of heavy-duty rod holders on the gunwales, rod holders on the back of the chair, rod holders on the lower tower legs, and rod holders on the bridge.
The massive tower built by Pipe Welders will provide plenty of visibility from the bridge or the second station. The outriggers can make a very wide spread, and the bridge has teaser reels.
Electronics consist of a working VHF and Simrad MFD. The boat is primarily fished a few miles from land and catches plenty of fish, so the seller did not see a need to upgrade electronics.
The salon is very roomy. There is a long L-shaped sofa and two chairs for comfort. The salon is nice and cool, as there is a newer AC unit. There is a bait freezer and a cabinet used for tackle.
The galley is down with a forward stateroom with two berths and a large stateroom with a private entrance to the head.
The most notable upgrade to the boat has been the upgrade to Cummins 480 horsepower engines paired with ZF transmissions, with dripless logs.
The boat has great bones and has been updated to last for decades.
