Undoubtedly, the early 1970s 53 Hatteras Convertible is one of the most popular large sport fish ever built due to a combination of excellent quality, good design and a fair price. The hulls and superstructure were built like a tank with the bottoms being about an inch thick with balsa cored sides and decks. With her 15'10" beam this is a big 53 footer and the layout takes maximum advantage of that space. The strong suit of the layout is a huge cockpit, salon and bridge, as is appropriate for a real sport fisherman. Most of the 53 Convertibles weight is further aft, which helps her performance, particularly in a short 3 chop where most boats of her size have trouble. Being built like a tank with a deep entry hull means that this boat doesn't bob around like a cork. She's a slow roller with a smooth ride.
This classic 1971 Hatteras 53 Convertible was purchased by the current owner in late 2020. Before that, Billfisher was owned by the SAME, well-known Alabama family since she was purchased NEW 49 years earlier! The McLean family primarily used her to fish the Chandeleur Islands for speckled trout and redfish. In 2017, Billfisher went through a very comprehensive restoration. Many of the updates done, as stated by the previous owners, are included in the listing.
If you want a big, serious sport fisherman, but find a new one way out of reach, this classic 53 Convertible is still worthy of consideration. Call the Listing Broker for more information and to make an appointment to see this classic beauty! You won't be disappointed.
