From The Manufacturer

The 53 Yacht Fisherman is an evolutionary boat, designed to bring approving nods from experienced yachstmen.

This versatile space-efficient cruiser is based on the most popular production yacht ever built - our 53 Motor Yacht. 

So the 53 Yacht Fisherman has what you expect of a Hatteras motor yacht. Comfort. Functional design. Impeccable craftsmanship.

It also has the unexpected... a cockpit.

Traditionally a feature of sportfishing boats, motor yacht owners have discovered that a cockpit offers extra convenience and enjoyment. 

The 53's all fiberglass cockpit offers easy access to the water, especially when fitted out with an optional swim platform and fold-down ladder.

Fishing, swimming, scuba diving and dinghy handling were necer easier from a motor yacht. Andf the standard transom gate is just the answer for boarding and provisioning from low docks.
