Broker's Comments

STILL THE ONE is a pristine 1985 Hatteras 53 Motor Yacht that is cruised on the Chesapeake Bay most of the year and winters in Florida.  She is a perfect example of this "timeless classic" that is America's most popular motor yacht from America's finest yacht builder during the 80's. Her owner has meticulously maintained her over the years, and with his background as a Navy carrier pilot and Admiral, you can rest assured that she is "RIGHT."  A "must see" for anyone wanting an excellent cruising classic motor yacht that would make an incredible liveaboard.  Easy to see in Vero Beach, FL for a limited time before she makes her trip back to the Chesapeake.  EXCEPTIONAL!
