Thanks to her precise tunnel hull design and other performance enhancements, the 50 Convertible attains 39-plus knots with a pair of 1,400-hp Caterpillar 3412E engines. She cruises at a comfortable 35 knots. Like all Hatteras yachts, the 50 Convertible attains high speeds without sacrificing her soft ride or rock-solid hull. Hatteras hulls are hand-laid with solid fiberglass and vinylester resins to provide impact resistance while eliminating the potential for core separation in this crucial area. A network of interlocking vacuum-bagged composite bulkheads and foam-core fiberglass stringers support the solid glass bottom. Captains will appreciate the clear visibility from the helm. The view of the bow is unobstructed, and the entire aft cockpit remains in view even from a seated position. The extended cockpit overhang provides crew with plenty of protection from the sun and gives the captain room to work behind the standard Murray Products helm chairs. On the helm console, a recessed box houses a standard suite of electronics that includes VHF, autopilot, depth sounder and chart plotter. Standard electronic single-lever controls and a pod-style helm give the 50 a custom feel. Twin bench seats provide seating for guests and copious rod storage, and a top-loading insulated drink box keeps the captain happy on the hottest of days. In the 135-square-foot cockpit, Hatteras provides the fishing gear you need. The bait and tackle center includes plenty of drawer storage for gear as well as a top-loading bait freezer and sink. An 80-inch fish box with macerator pump will keep the catch on ice, and quick-connect saltwater and freshwater washdown connections ease the cleanup. Four rod holders, dry storage in the salon step, a transom door and a stainless-steel plate for mounting a fighting chair all come standard.
Additional twin engines by Caterpillar and MTU available.
