1972 Whitcraft hatteras

BOB BLUM - WILMINGTON, NORTH CAROLINA

The 1972 Whitcraft Hatteras represents a rare and innovative collaboration between Whitcraft and Hatteras - two respected names in American boatbuilding - resulting in a true cruising houseboat with offshore capability. It's a unique and seldom-seen collaboration that blends the livability of a traditional houseboat with the seaworthiness of a true cruising hull. Built on a solid fiberglass modified deep-V platform, this vessel offers capabilities well beyond typical inland houseboats - making it an ideal choice for buyers seeking comfort without sacrificing mobility.

The layout is centered around maximizing usable living space while maintaining practical flow throughout the vessel. Overall, the layout delivers a true liveaboard platform, offering separation between living, cooking, and sleeping areas while maintaining an open, comfortable feel.
Main Salon: A large, open salon with expansive windows creates a bright and inviting living area. This space serves as the primary gathering and entertaining zone, offering a comfortable, residential feel.
Galley: Typically positioned adjacent to or just forward of the salon, the galley is equipped with ample storage, counter space, and full-size appliances suitable for extended stays aboard.
Stateroom(s): A private forward stateroom, with aft sleeping accommodations with full size berth with private aft exterior entrance.
Head & Shower: An enclosed head with shower provides the functionality needed for cruising or live-aboard life.
Deck Areas: Generous exterior deck space allows for line handling, lounging, and entertaining, with easy access around the vessel and expansive bridge with seating and cruising controls.

Whitcraft Hatteras models are equipped with twin inboard diesel engines, chosen for their durability, efficiency, and long service life. Turbocharged Perkins 6.354, 5.8 Liter, 6 in line cylinders with 160 engine horsepower.
