1978 HATTERAS 46 Convertible

Acerca de 1978 Hatteras 46 Convertible

Built by Hatteras in 1978, the 46 Convertible is a 14.02-metre motor yacht that has established itself as one of the most recognisable models in the builder's long history. With a commanding beam of 14 feet 6 inches, she offers a solid, stable platform well suited to offshore passages and extended time on the water. A complete refit carried out in March 2025 brings her condition up to a modern standard, combining the robustness of her original construction with fresh, contemporary upgrades throughout.

Powered by twin Detroit Diesel engines showing just 735 hours, she delivers reliable performance at a cruising speed of 18 knots. The interior accommodates guests across two cabins, providing a comfortable layout for couples or small families looking to spend quality time aboard. Her convertible layout, a hallmark of the Hatteras 46 model, makes her equally at ease for offshore fishing as for leisure cruising and entertaining.

This yacht is well suited to a buyer seeking a proven, American-built motor yacht with a strong mechanical foundation and recent renovation work already completed. The low engine hours combined with the 2025 refit reduce the typical concerns associated with purchasing a classic vessel, offering a more straightforward ownership experience from day one. She appeals particularly to those who appreciate traditional build quality paired with updated equipment and finish.
