Rare Hatteras 68′ Extended Motor Yacht — Roscioli Shipyard Custom Conversion – An Interior That Needs To Be Seen In Person To Appreciate How Well Its Done. 

A Classic Hatteras with the Space, Comfort, and Capability of a Much Larger Yacht!

This is a truly unique opportunity to own a Hatteras that was originally built as a 61′ yacht and professionally extended to 68′ by the renowned Roscioli Shipyard in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The extension was commissioned by the original owner immediately after purchasing the vessel and was designed to significantly enhance both her accommodations and cruising capabilities.

The additional seven feet transformed this Hatteras into an exceptionally spacious and versatile yacht. The enlarged salon provides room for a custom wet bar, creating an ideal setting for entertaining family and friends. The vessel’s fuel capacity was increased to an impressive 1,800 gallons, providing excellent range for extended cruising.

Below deck, the extension created a very spacious lazarette, providing an abundance of storage for equipment, provisions, water toys, and cruising gear. Perhaps one of the most desirable features is the enclosed, air-conditioned aft deck, which serves as an additional salon and living area. This versatile space can be enjoyed year-round and adds an entirely new dimension to the yacht’s already generous accommodations.

The professional extension also resulted in improved performance and handling, making this yacht not only larger and more comfortable, but also an even more capable cruising platform.

Accommodations

The yacht features a highly desirable 4-stateroom, 4-head layout, offering exceptional privacy and comfort for owners and guests. With her generous living spaces, abundant storage, and multiple entertaining areas, she would make an outstanding liveaboard, extended cruising yacht, or comfortable family getaway.

She has also recently undergone an extensive interior refit, giving the interior a fresh, updated feel while retaining the character and craftsmanship expected from a classic Hatteras.

Power & Cruising

Power is provided by twin Detroit Diesel 12V71TI engines, producing 650 HP each / 1,300 HP total. Combined with her increased 1,800-gallon fuel capacity, this yacht was designed with extended cruising and serious time aboard in mind.
