Hatteras 60 Convertible
« BACK | 60 Interior
The 60 Convertible's cockpit benefits greatly from the boat's wide 19-foot beam, as well as a raised mezzanine level that offers cushioned seating for improved visibility aft.
Mezzanine, Cockpit, & Engine Room
The standard arrangement on the upper mezzanine deck includes a freezer outboard next to the centerline engine room access. Just behind the bridge ladder to starboard are two tackle drawers hidden behind a drop-down door. On the lower mezzanine level, a single large icebox to port is sized perfectly to house a professional-grade bait tray. To port is a large ice collection bin. Within the radius steps you'll find a large refrigerated drink box and wet storage compartments for mop heads and chamois. Two massive fish boxes are located longitudinally in the cockpit sole. The cockpit is finished to the highest level, thanks to side cockpit scuppers that drain through the quarter-fenders and curved doors that hide the twin 50-amp inlets and quick disconnects for fresh and saltwater wash-downs. The engine room features a similar attention to detail, thanks to its clean layout and faired surface for a true wipe-and-go finish.
Helm
On the bridge, a large console features a pod-style helm with an actuated console to keep electronics safe from the elements when not in use. Just forward of the console is an insulated drink cooler as well as an optional freezer. Ample rod storage is available beneath the forward and starboard lounge seats. Murray Products Sea 19 teak helm chairs are standard, as is an electronics suite including Northstar 6000i GPS/plotter, Icom VHF, Simrad AP26 autopilot, and Simrad IS15 depth and temp indicator. A stereo with CD player provides entertainment. In addition, as a part of its standard safety equipment, Hatteras provides a back-up control system beneath the helm should an emergency arise.
