About Wanderer
<p><br></p><p><span style="color: black; background-color: white;">Located in New Bern NC, Hatteras Yacht has been manufacturing luxury production and semi-custom sportfishing and motor yachts</span> <span style="color: black; background-color: white;">for over half a century. Starting out when </span><span style="color: rgb(77, 81, 86); background-color: white;">wooden boat construction was still the norm, textile manufacturer Willis Slane and a group of investors envisioned a new breed of fishing boat and hired naval architect Jack Hargrave to design a yacht that could stand up to the challenging conditions of the waters off North Carolina's Cape Hatteras. </span><span style="color: black; background-color: white;">They have stood as the benchmark of quality and innovation since their beginnings. </span></p><p><strong> </strong></p><p><span style="color: rgb(49, 49, 49);">This 1981 Hatteras 48 Motor Yacht epitomizes the classic design that combines performance and quality craftsmanship, with luxurious accommodations. </span><strong style="color: rgb(49, 49, 49);">WANDERER </strong><span style="color: rgb(49, 49, 49);">is powered by twin 335 hp Detroit Diesel 6v92TAs with 1775 (starboard)/1560 (port) hours, and a 2018 Cummins Onan generator. </span>She is equipped with a VHS, Furuno Radar, a Viking compass, a 2021 Garmin 8612 chartplotter/sonar w/12” display, a XANTRAX Freedom SW 3012 inverter, and a Dometic AC split system with 4 zones and digital controls was retrofitted in 2021.
