Twin CAT C30s • Twin Seakeeper 9s • Tournament-Rigged • Four Stateroom Layout • Enclosed Bridge
There are plenty of large convertibles on the market.
Very few are true Hatteras boats from this era.
Before aggressive cost-cutting became industry standard, Hatteras built boats with substantial layup schedules, serious engine rooms, oversized systems, and hulls designed to handle offshore conditions year after year. These boats earned their reputation the hard way—through thousands of offshore hours, tournament miles, and long-range cruising use.
“STRICTLY BUSINESS” is exactly that kind of boat.
This 2004 Hatteras 65 Enclosed Bridge combines serious offshore fishability, long-range cruising capability, redundant systems, stabilized comfort, and one of the most desirable enclosed bridge layouts Hatteras ever produced.
What separates this boat from many others on the market is not one flashy feature—it is the complete package working together correctly.
Twin Caterpillar C30s.
Twin Seakeeper 9 gyros.
Tournament-ready cockpit.
Four-stateroom layout.
Climate-controlled enclosed bridge.
Rebuilt generators.
Updated electronics.
Proper mechanical infrastructure.
This is a vessel built for owners who actually use their boats.
