Hatteras 54 Flybridge for sale in Eastbourne United Kingdom

This American built Hatteras Flybridge is truely stunning providing cavernous accommodation and is equipped to a very high standard for long distance cruising.

This semi-displacement vessel is incredibly frugal on fuel for the size of vessel; at a cruising speed of 16 knots @ 2300rpm with its Onan generator also running it uses approximately 40 litres per hour in total.  On full tanks at cruising speed it has a range of approximately 750 miles.

This boat has had four owners from new and was initially based in Bermuda, then based on the River Thames for approximately four years and then on the south coast in the UK.

Without doubt an exceptional example which has been meticuliously maintained by the current owner's and must be viewed to be appreciated as the photographs do not do it justice.

An Ideal Boat for Long Distance Passage Making or as a Live Aboard.  Hull Surveyed 15th January 2018.
