Boat Description

Nestled in New Bern, NC, Hatteras Yacht has been a leader in crafting luxury production and semi-custom sportfishing and motor yachts for over 50 years. Founded during the era of wooden boat construction, textile magnate Willis Slane and his investors sought to create a new kind of fishing vessel, enlisting naval architect Jack Hargrave to design a boat that could withstand the challenging waters off Cape Hatteras. Since then, their vessels have set the standard for quality and innovation. The 1981 Hatteras 48 Motor Yacht, named WANDERER, encapsulates this classic design philosophy, offering a blend of performance and exquisite craftsmanship alongside luxurious living spaces. Powered by twin 335 hp Detroit Diesel 6v92TAs with 1775 (starboard) and 1560 (port) hours, and outfitted with a 2018 Cummins Onan generator, WANDERER is equipped for modern navigation with features like a VHS, Furuno Radar, a Viking compass, and a 2021 Garmin 8612 chartplotter/sonar with a 12” display. Additional amenities include a XANTRAX Freedom SW 3012 inverter and a Dometic AC split system, retrofitted in 2021 for optimal comfort. Clever storage solutions are found throughout, including spare propellers beneath the forward cabin and a Fortress Anchor with a 45lb CQR anchor, complete with ample rode and chain. The enclosed flybridge boasts a custom fiberglass hardtop, helm station, two captain's chairs, and an L-shaped settee, leading to a spacious sundeck with a new Isinglass enclosure—ideal for relaxing or entertaining. The wet bar includes a stainless steel sink, a beverage/wine cooler, and generous storage. Deck amenities feature a flatscreen TV and four premium cushioned folding deck chairs with a table. A walk-through transom provides access to a fiberglass swim platform via a ladder. Inside, the light-filled Main Salon and step-down Galley are designed for comfort, showcasing a second helm station, two swivel barrel chairs, an L-shaped settee, a flatscreen TV, and a full ONKYO stereo system. The U-shaped Galley is well-equipped with a full-sized Kelvinator fridge, a newly rebuilt Cool Boats icemaker, a 3-burner Galley Princess electric stove with oven, a Toshiba microwave, a Black & Decker toaster oven, and a convertible dinette that can accommodate additional sleeping space. WANDERER features a three-stateroom, three-head layout: the forward double berth stateroom has an ensuite head with sink, vanity, and shower; the starboard aft guest stateroom has two single berths and a guest head; and the full-beam master stateroom aft includes a queen berth, a flatscreen TV, two hanging lockers, ample storage, and an ensuite head with a sink, vanity, and separate enclosed shower. Professionally serviced and maintained by the current owner, this classic cruiser is ready for new adventures in the 2024 season. Notable upgrades include a new flatscreen TV in 2022, a complete retrofit of the AC system with Dometic units in various sizes, and recent improvements to the house batteries and icemaker.
