Description

“Turtle IV” was the very beginning of the Hatteras Long Range Cruiser legacy. It is hull #1 and the showcase boat for two years, Turtle IV toured the country showing off what the legendary LRC would soon become. In remarkable condition and as the Hatteras Demo Boat, Turtle IV has many upgrades and attention to detail that no other LRC was equipped with. The African hardwood Sapele and Teak trim throughout the vessel is like no other!

Equipped with twin Detroit Diesels 4-71N motors with approximately 4000 hours, she will burn about 4 gallons an hour at 8 Knots. Giving a range of over 2000 Miles on her main tank alone.

Some of the Upgrades include: New upholstery and curtains throughout (2013), complete new galley (2013), (2) New Phasor 15kW Generators (2013), New 30-gallon hot water heater (2013)New batteries and chargers replaced in 2015, and washer and dryer (2012)

The current owners have documented everything in the ship's log for the 5 years of their ownership. If you are in the market for the king of Long Range Cruisers, then you owe it to yourself to make an appointment and see the Turtle for yourself. She is an amazing vessel and the one that started it all.

Additional Brokers comments

When the owners of Turtle IV came to me they wanted a LRC but were not sure of what LRC would best suit their needs. I introduced them to the 58 Hatteras LRC and they decided that was the boat for them. 

Now the search started for the nicest, best maintained and best equipped 58 on the market. When we went aboard Turtle IV that was it. It had been exceptionally well maintained, was still in use and the owners were very knowledgable. So we made the offer and that was 5 years ago. The current owners traveled from Ft. Pierce FL to Lake Gunthersville AL to its new under cover home. 

Since then it has been the star of the area and the new owners showed their pride of ownership by continually tweaking and upgrading Turtle IV to its present condition. 

You will not find a better maintained and equipped vessel of this type anywhere. Don't let her age fool you, she is a beauty.
