The Temptress is an incredible example of classic Hatteras. Her interior decor, last updated in 2007/2011 shows beautifully, incorporating all the matched tiger striped teak so prized in the earlier Hatteras with custom furnishings, lighting, and an exhaustive list of updates.

Easy access to the fully enclosed pilot house and aft upper main saloon is provided thru custom hand crafted side entry sliding doors added to this classic lady in 2007.  The main salon, aft of the pilot house was created with the addition of a custom, hard aft bulkhead with an expanse of window and aft door when the Temptress was first purchased by the current owner and spent the winter in the shed for her first makeover.  The aft line handling deck is comfortable, appealing and extends the wonderful livability and flow of the main deck. The granite topped built-in entertainment center houses the flat screen television and air conditioning, low pile tight weave tropical carpeting, a custom made full sized "L" shaped sofa, end-tables and cocktail tables all provide incredible storage and two custom made upholstered chairs and cocktail table round out the charm of this warm, comfortable and inviting space.

The 6.5’ beautifully upholstered sofa in the pilot house sits atop eight storage drawers for all of the piloting essentials and makes the pilot house an intricate part of the on-deck cruising/entertainment center.  The leather upholstered helm seat can be removed from the pilot house and affixed to the floor of the main saloon for added seating during non-cruising times. 

Forward and down three steps you descend into a large Dining Saloon, a wonderfully unusual feature for a yacht of this size.  The storage and flexibility of this room is incredible. Again the original teak overlay and joinery remains to add charm to this spacious dining saloon. Storage abounds in a hand painted Chinese chest, ample built in cabinetry that houses everything from a wine rack to the two custom made cabinets Port and Starboard, that were added to house the ample fore deck sun seat cushions. 

Continue forward down three beautifully finished teak steps to a full width Galley/Dinette that incorporates a well designed and functional galley that includes a four burner black ceramic GE Monogram stove, stainless steel GE Profile Convection Oven/Microwave with multi-speed vent, stainless steel Kitchen Aid Dishwasher, full sized stainless steel LG French Door Refrigerator with freezer draw.  The ample Avonite counter top incorporates a deep molded sink for easy cleaning and is finished off with chrome faucet, Kitchen Aid disposal and is accessorized with an over the sink port light that was added for both visibility and good cross ventilation.

Access to the main engines, generator and batteries for minimum maintenance is also from this area, along with hydraulic hatch access to the galley based hot water heater and V-Berth storage forward of the galley. 

The Guest/Captain’s cabin is located forward of the galley with ample separate head/shower, and storage, including a cedar lined closet.  Well ventilated with overhead hatch, air conditioning and heat the original upper and lower single berth bed arrangement was redesigned to provide an ample single plus berth, with beautiful designer wall coverings, teak and holly flooring and custom made bedding and extensive storage under.

Conveniently located just four steps below and aft of the dining saloon you find the custom cabinet housing a stacked full size Maytag washer and dryer – an absolute must for cruising and live aboard. 

The Guest Cabin to Port is bright with custom bed linens for twin side by side bunks in the traditional styling of Hatteras, ample port lights for light, individually air conditioned with a large hanging locker and eight under-bunk drawers that provide excellent clothing storage for guests.  Two four drawer nightstands provide additional storage space.  The head and stall shower is located across the companionway and opposite this cabin which also was refurbished with new countertops, molded sink, hardware, faucet, cabinet laminates, flooring, lighting and window treatments. 

The Master Cabin is located aft and is a full width cabin. The queen-sized berth is located to Port and athwartship. Large double hanging cedar lined closet and ten drawers provide good clothes storage. This cabin was refurbished with custom bedding, mattress, lighting and carpet.  The master head is ensuite to Starboard with stall shower, new vanity, sink, hardware, faucet and electric VacuFlush head as do the other two heads.

All of the interior headliner and overhead dimmer controlled lighting has been upgraded throughout. Draperies and honey coned blinds are attractive and coordinated throughout to provide both privacy and insulation from the elements.

The updating of the flybridge includes a new aluminum arch that houses the radar, GPS, anchor light and search light; the arch is cantilevered to allow you to easily lower the arch aft when needed. The new windshield and substantial stainless steel handrail are angled forward.  Dual helm seats and an expansive bimini provide excellent visibility and comfortable cruising.  The Temptress’ exterior was updated with Awlgrip-2000 Cloud White and her bridge and hull are accented with black striping.  New custom made engine louvers that ride flush to the hull provide a sleek update that also adds ease for placing fenders where needed.  Her teak inlaid bow pulpit, handrails and swim platform add just the right touch of wood trim with limited maintenance. 

The Temptress is clean, well maintained, without leaks, mold, blisters or other hidden issues and is available for inspection by appointment only.  The Temptress comes fully furnished, however, owner's personal items and her extensive art work do not convey.
