Production was discontinued following the 1998 model year. This was the last of the mid-sized model boats to be offered by Hatteras.The hull form is a modified "V" with an integral keel that aids in tracking and directional stability, particularly at slower speeds. The modest deadrise of only about nine degrees at the transom helps the boat to lift onto plane with less horsepower, and roll less at slow speed or sitting still.Construction is fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) composite. The hull is solid glass fiber and resin below the waterline. Foam cored composites are used above the waterline, except in the area of through hull fittings. Longitudinal stringers, athwartship stiffeners and major structural bulkheads are installed before the hull is removed from the mold to ensure hull shape is retained when it is removed. The deck and hull are fastened together in a shoebox fashion with adhesives and mechanical fasteners. The quality of engineering, materials and construction of this model is excellent with no common problems, aside from those associated with wear and tear due to age and service.Although not unique to Hatteras, fuel tanks are constructed of fiberglass rather than welded aluminum or steel. This eliminates the potential for corrosion associated with metal tanks and is stronger and more durable than molded plastic tanks. But there have been some rather serious problems associated with fiberglass tanks and the use of gasoline/ethanol fuel. This should not be much of a problem because nearly all 38/39 Convertibles were built with diesel engines. Only in the first year of production was the 38 Convertible offered with gasoline engines and I have never run across one.As with any design that is intended to serve more than one function - in this case fishing and cruising - there are compromises in the design. For example, the 103-square-foot cockpit allows for the installation of a full-size fighting chair for the sportfishing enthusiast but, with such a chair in place, there is not much room for dockside entertaining. The flybridge is arranged with the helm and mate seats aft, as they should be on a fishing boat, so that the operator can easily see what's going on in the cockpit. The helm console provides plenty of room for navigation electronics and a bench seat forward where two or three passengers can be comfortably seated. The flush and unobstructed foredeck provides a great spot for the sun worshiper when dockside or at anchor.- Ratheon 48 Mile Color Radar - Ratheon Auto Pilot & Chart Plotter- Ratheon GPS- Ratheon Fathom Meter- (2) VHF Radios- (1) Sideband Radio- 466 Epirb- Liferaft, Emergency Flares- Bilge/ Engine Room Onboard TV Camera- Twin new A/C Units - 8KW Onan 110 / 240 AC GensetPlease submit any and ALL offers - your offer may be accepted!
