Brokers Notes

"Blue Chip" is a pleasure to show. Basically there is no space onboard that I wasn't afraid to take a picture of. Every single space is Clean, Dry, Well Organized, Smells good, etc.

With her repainted exterior, she shines like a much newer boat.

Pride of Ownership is very evident. In fact, the current owner, has owned this vessel twice, for a total of about 15 years.


If you are a Hatteras shopper, you owe it to yourself to plan a visit to see "Blue Chip".
