    Hello,

    Did you purchase the 57’ Roamer listed at Harbor Town in Tennessee?

    No, it had too many issues. We are looking at a 58
    Hatteras that just came up for sale
    Thanks for asking

    Yes, with all the issues we were looking at possibly quite a bit of money.
    The owner was unwilling to negotiate as he has spent a lot on her already.

    From looking at the pictures, my guess is the GM diesels were the originals and needed some work?

    They were scored, some rust spotted, the gen had low compression, the toilets didn't function, the windlass shorted out, the deck leaked...
    The boat looks fabulous from a cosmetic point of view, but we were not looking for a show boat.

    It was very disappointing as we were really interested, and the owner has put a lot of time and effort into it.
    Unfortunately I believe the owner may have paid too much when he purchased it.
