- Welcome to V.B.S. Episode 35 -- Virtual Boat Shopping for our dream Great Loop boat. Today we look at a 1981 Hatteras 56 Motor Yacht to see if we want to add it to our Yes! No! or Maybe? list of potential boats to purchase to do the Great American Loop.
We hope to set sail (or rather start our engines) on our Great Loop Adventure in spring 2022. But we still need to find a boat.
Our favorite eco friendly detergent is... dropps.pxf.io/...

Love the Hatteras ! Classic lines. Hugely practical. Immensely stylish and could be remodelled beautifully too . Great price as well . Seems like the perfect boat for this adventure
I agree!
Can't believe you guys got me aboard on this quest can't wait to get you guys going it's so exciting and I am so sorry I cannot be there and waiting for you to get the boat but I'm telling you the 5658 ft Hatteras is the best
Hi Sterling! Thanks so much for joining us on this crazy adventure :). We just posted an update. We may have found the unicorn of a boat w were looking. It has the livability of the Hatteras but with more modern equipment. Stay tuned!
We were one of three couples who spent two weeks in the Bahamas aboard a Hat 56. Never felt confined or crowded, with so many spaces aboard there was always a place to 'get away' for quiet time, and being inside due to weather was a non-issue (especially with rear isingglass). Very comfortable and managable yacht.
That is a GREAT testimony to this boat! Thanks for sharing.
This kind of boat/yacht but slightly more modern, and you good to go.!!!
That is EXACTLY what we are looking for. But it may be like looking for a unicorn LOL
We have a 63’ Hatteras (1987). We are doing most of the loop on it. Ours is stabilized and has bow thruster. We have 3 teen boys and 4 staterooms and 4 heads. It’s the perfect space for a family. Working and homeschooling is great. A Hatteras is a solid boat! Best of luck. You’re welcome to ask us anything if you’re leaning towards a Hatt.
Oh my goodness! I am so glad you commented. Your reassuring words just gave me so much comfort as I am starting to have a panick attack about all that needs to be done. Where are you on the loop? Any chance you are headed to the Rendevous?
The wide body pushes the salon walls out to the gunwales, eliminating the the complete walk-around...but makes for an enormous living space
Great to know! This one still had a complete walk-around so maybe it wasn't a wide body????
One good thing about this Hatteras, it’s a blank canvas for you to decorate. Another words very little built in furnishings. There is a Hatteras out there that has been upgraded.
100% agree. It would be an easy and fun makeover.
There are 2 well kept Ocean Alexander’s which are Loop veterans coming up for sale within the next month or 2 which might better fit your needs
Tell me more! We LOVE LOVE LOVE Ocean Alexander. Do you happen to know what models/lengths?
If you 2 are stinking rich and mechanically inclined, this Hatt will be great for. Otherwise, you'll be spending a lot of time trying to find a good mechanic that won't be practicing on it during your adventure. Good luck !
LOL that is a great reason not to get a Hatteras!
Not a 'gangway' ! It's a Passageway. And it's decks, not floors, if we're correcting each other ! Great tour.
I am on my second Hatteras. 1977 58MY and now 1976 48 LRC. Great boats but complex. Unless an exception to the rule for most any boat you buy, you should plan to spend 6 months getting to know it and repairing or replacing systems. Most people who are selling do so because they are either not regularly using the boat or they cannot afford the upkeep.
Ha! We don’t have six months in our lives to gradually do anything! Just not the way we roll. There will be plenty of time to get to know a boat while Looping and no matter how much preparation anything can happen along the way that you just have to TCB⚡️ ⚓️Mark
This one checks many boxes!!
It really does. We keep going back to a Hatteras because you can't beat the living space!
Well nice but No stabilizers
Find 1 W it rolls
@@sterlingd9035 we'd really love stabilizers if we can get them.
So the trip is soon, no boat…this is a hatter as, in great shape with a few small compromises. Awesome boat, do the loop and sell then get your forever boat!
It is a solid contender for sure and could be a great loop boat. But there may be one we like better 😉
That is a good looking 56’ Hatteras! I say keep her like she is just add some new soft goods and add a Glendenning cablemaster for your shore power cable/s. I don’t think you will miss the stabilizers. Yes thrusters would be nice but you have two big diesels. Then all you need to do is work on getting the Nanny.
Heck we are anxious! We need to get our boat out of winterization in Baltimore and bring her here to North Carolina so we can get her ready for the 2022 Fleet.
It is getting real isn't it LOL. But it is going to be fun!!!
Are you not planning on going on the Erie Canal? I keep hearing you say the lowest bridge you must worry is 19'6". There are 15' bridges on at least the western part of the Erie Canal. Are you going around Halifax and down the St. Lawrence River instead?
We will most likely have to skip the Erie Canal unless we get a boat with a hinged arch.
A gangway is used to get on & off the boat…. Hallway is called a passageway… 👍🏻
I knew that sounded incorrect! Thanks for the correct terms. We are learning LOL
@@TheBoomershines been on boats my whole life ….still learning 😉
@@br5498 Awww thanks for saying that. :). :). :)
Those old Hatteras yachts are perfect boats for total make overs. It would take most of a year, but new engines, new galleys, new heads, new electronics, new paint. You could easily end up with $1M invested in an old hull and more than a year in the yard.
That is exactly what we are afraid of. But it sure would be an amazing boat with a proper makeover!
I agree.
Adding some stuff could be done, go to a place like Zimmerman Marine. One place down south could scope the job then one of their more northern places could install… just a idea
Great idea. I hadn't thought of that. Thanks for the thought!
Love the Hatteras, we just purchased a 70’ Hatteras in Europe and took 9 months to get back to the PNW.
First your power cord issue, think exercise, some people would put in the glendinning then spend more money on exercise equipment, why? again think exercise. Second don’t worry about the age, the hull is better than a lot of newer boats and pumps and other stuff still need replacing, it’s a boat. Third your updated plotters should do you fuel burn for you, my wife is a retired special educator and said, “ great math skills for the kiddies to do those calculations for you, a good job for them as well. Forth not to worry about thrusters (training wheels) you have twin engines, properly used they move the boat the same as thrusters. Five travelling will be mostly in calmer weather and not much in open ocean so no need for stabilization, it’s a Hatteras they handle a lot of sea just fine. Enough for now, good luck in your search, love the channel.
Love all this! Thank you for sharing and your adventure in your 70' Hatteras sounds amazing!
And thanks for watching and cheering us on :)
We would love to bring our 63’ Hatteras from Florida up to the PNW! Would love to know how you did it. Delivery Captain or did you do it yourself?
Had a wonderful trip from Antigua to St Lucia to Bonaire to just an overnight anchorage in Columbia then to Colon, Panama, then up to Mexico and beyond. Just the wife and myself. Two friends joined us for the Canal transit because it was on their bucket list and stayed until Mexico, then it was back to the two of us
@@r52euphoria This trip sounds AMAZING!!! I would love to do that trip one day in the future but I am a bit fearful of pirates and the like. Did you have any issues? (I may have watched too many pirate movies LOL)
Check out “ adventures of oloh” a 60’ Jefferson with the style and looks of a hatteras with the modern touches. Great vids. I still luv the hatteras but they definitely need some updating .
We love those guys! And their boat. They did a great job updating it. And thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment and cheer us on. We really appreciate it!
They have a great boat and an outstanding Vlog.
@@allanstraughan1393 Agreed. They are #goals
How much was this boat?
What is The Price?
Just pick a boat already!
We are trying! LOL Picking is one thing. Finding the boat another. Then having it pass survey is another. We are posting a January update on Saturday if you want to know.
You were looking at boats a year ago will you ever pic a boat I'm surprised you no what boats you have looked at
LOL. We have actually been looking at boats for YEARS! We just started making videos of the process last year. We will post an update on Saturday. We may have picked a boat!
US$299,900
Port Clinton 1983 56 Hatteras fresh water boat newer less money
@@tsturn4682 Thanks! We've seen that one, but unfortunately for us that is almost exactly halfway around the Loop and geographically not feasible. Thanks for tuning in! ⚓️Mark
@@TheBoomershines look at 58ft Palm Beach fl. $325,000
@@tsturn4682 Will do! Thanks for the lead.
Nope. All that dark wood is depressing.
It could definitely use some lightening up! Our dream boat would be light and bright.
