Boat Type: Motor Yacht Address: Fort Lauderdale, FL, US Price: $165,000

Overview

The 53 Hatteras Classic Motor Yacht has been the standard for upscale luxury cruising yachts in production for two decades with a voluminous interior and generous accommodations. This beauty is in keeping with this tradition. The salon is entered from either the aft sun deck or the two mid-ship sliding doors on either side of the salon. One is immediately struck by the large salon area, which has been tastefully redecorated by the current owners. The salon has a settee, two relaxing chairs with ottomans, new curtains, wood blinds, entertainment center and HD flatscreen TV. There is a lower helm forward in the salon. The galley and accommodations are entered down a companionway on the starboard side of the lower helm and include a GE convection oven/microwave, new full-size refrigerator/freezer w/ icemaker, dishwasher, and a 4-burner Glasstop electric stove.

The Master and VIP cabins are accessed down a centerline companionway. The VIP cabin is amid ship with twin berths, hanging locker, TV and drawer storage. The huge master cabin is aft with plenty of hanging lockers and drawer storage.
