    Does anyone know about a 130 Hatteras named "Donna Marie"?

    Or the 130 Hatteras "Charisma" for sale by Westport?

    Hat 130s???
    Thought they were building their second 100, and I believed it to be the largest from Hatteras. No spit balls from me, just want to know more my-self.
    Or, Were these (130s) lengthened models?

    They were a Jack Hargrave design from the mid-90's.

    No they built some in the mid 90's and late 90's in that size range. They also built several 100's back then also.

    Montana Moon the 118' that burned at Jarret Bay earlier this year was one of them and 118' with no extension......Sacajawea (spelling) that had the railroad lift puncture the bottom at the old Greek Yard on the New River (next to Rolly) a decade ago, in Fort Lauderdale was a Hatteras 130' I believe.

    I friend of mine ran Charisma for many years. I've been on the boat once, two years ago. The blue was needing a paint job and the boat seemed somewhat dated, but in good shape for her age. She draws something around 8' I believe.

    The new Donna Marie II is a very beautiful boat and looks every bit of the 21' in additional length. Whomever bought the 93' Donna Marie purchased a gorgeous boat that I can imagine was well maintained.

    However, I think the OP is referring to the boat being discussed in this thread..

    That's it. A few days ago the "new couple" showed up on a couple of boating forums (cruisers and trawler) claiming to be (depending on the forum) either "boat sitters" or owners of a 130 Hatt. They say they are:

    Captain/Crew/Yacht Caretakers
    Husband/Wife team: Professinal yacht caretakers.
    We are middle aged, professinal, well traveled and educated.

    Obviously not English majors ...

    They posted a photo of "their" Hatt on one of the sites and claimed to have made 3 Med trips on it and many trips to the islands. The only problem is that the boat in their photo is Charisma that is being sold by Westport.

    Maybe they just got confused because they have so many other photos of their Hatt in the Med and down in the islands and inadvertently posted the wrong photo. They also said that they got the boat for cheap from the insurance company after a galley fire, rebuilt it, and, best part of all, added tunnels to reduce the draft.

    Another mystery of the sea I guess ...

    Hi,

    Just the typical sort job that one would expect to be able to be knocked over while the wheels were away for a Shave and a Haircut no less.

    I see where after being questioned about where the work was done that there was no answer.

    Yeah, no big deal, right? I guess it's one of those "as long as we've got it hauled, lets rebuild the afterbody and rearrange the shaftlines to reduce the draft a bit."

    That's the sort of thing boat sitters do when they're bored I guess.

    Hi any more info on the Sacajawea which is now the Tranquility? Did the puncture go all the way thru? Did it sink? Or any other info on the boat.Boss is looking at it. Thanks Danny

    130

    All the way thru but above the water line, no water ingress, Bradford's did a great job fixing her and she has gone thru at least 4 surveys that I know of with no problems regarding that.

    What shocked me about the article was that the boat was listed on the documents at 150 tons. I never would have anticipated a 130' Hatteras so light. In fact, it's shown at 264,000 pounds on the ad now. A 100' Hatteras today weighs that. A 130' Westport is 455,000, a 120' OA is 395,000. Perhaps we're talking unladen versus laden but still that wouldn't account for the huge differences.

    If you look at the picture in the link I posted, it is sitting very bow down. Still floating, but several feet bow down.

    TowBoat US was quickly there as well and per the report, there was minimal water in the bilge and it never even reached the floor. They quickly put temporary patches over the holes on site, then towed it. So as horrible as the event sounded, the damage was relatively minor and easily repaired.
