"A Few Dollars More" is not your typical older 46' Hatteras Convertible on today’s market. She retains the classic Hatteras lines but has the appearance of a much more modern boat. She is an exceptional example, as she has had many updates. In May 2022 she received a complete new exterior paint job. In addition, her salon windows have been removed and replaced with the new-style one-piece frame-less windows and the front windshield was removed and was fiberglassed over. Indeed, a beautiful one-of-a-kind boat!

Her interior still retains her original woodwork and cabinetry, which is in excellent condition. There have been some tasteful updates to her interior, which includes new salon window blinds, new carpet in (2024). The wallpaper has been upgraded throughout. When the front windshield was removed, she received custom matching cabinetry forward of the salon, which is now an entertainment center with a large flat-screen TV and extra storage. Indeed, an excellent use of this previously wasted space.

She is powered by twin Detroit 8V71TI’s with 425hp each. Her generator has been updated to an over-sized 16kw Northern Lights. He engine room shows pride of ownership.

The interior accommodations are spacious and features a large salon, a full galley down, (2) staterooms with the master stateroom being amidship where it belongs and the guest stateroom is forward. There are (2) heads.

Again, this in an exceptional boat and will please the discriminating of buyers!

Truly a must see and reasonable offer will be considered!
