From The Manufacturer

The Hatteras 37 shows all the care in design and construction that is found in the top of the line 70-ft. motor yachts. The Hatteras 37 was designed by Jack Hargrave.

Construction of the Hatteras 37 follows fiberglass techniques. The hull lay-up is solid fiberglass and the decks and cabin are made of fiberglass sandwich construction. There is a soft, perforated, vinyl headliner in the cabins and the hull sides.

One of the unusual aspects of construction is the use of polyurethane paint over the exterior gel-coated surfaces. The stated reasons for this are to improve the durability of the surfaces and to ease maintenance and repair work. Hatteras has done an excellent job of applying the polyurethane resulting in a smooth glossy exterior finish.

The interior is paneled in teak with a hand-rubbed oil finish. We are accustomed to seeing teak in boats but none have the beautifully matched figure-grained panelling that is in this boat. We are told that the paneling is Mozambique teak - a rare and remarkably beautiful wood with an unusual wavy grain. It also appears to be lighter in colour than the more common Burma teak.

Interior accommodations are laid out in a split-level plan isolating the daytime space from the sleeping areas by a three step stairway.

The salon is truly a social area and Hatteras has made no attempt to use it as a sleeping cabin.

Unlike many boats that need a raised cabin trunk to get headroom in the forward living quarters, the Hatteras-37 has a broad and only slightly arched foredeck which would make a wonderful place for sunning while at anchor.
