HT HOOK - MERRITT BOAT WORKS FOR SALE

The HT HOOK is a standout 72’ Merritt custom convertible Sportfish that marries speed, comfort, and refined style. Featuring a four-stateroom, three-head arrangement, she sleeps seven with ease, making her a superb choice for extended cruising and tournament weeks with family and friends in a luxury fishing yacht.

In 2019, HT HOOK benefited from a comprehensive refit at Merritt’s with fresh soft goods, upgraded countertops, and sleek Miele appliances. Twin Seakeeper 9 gyrostabilizers were added for exceptional comfort both drifting and on the run. A Furuno CHS-8LM2 Omni Sonar was fitted, and the 3,000-hour engine service was completed, sharpening her edge as a bluewater sportfishing convertible.

Powered by 1,800 hp Caterpillar C32 ACERTs and maintained with an open-checkbook approach, HT HOOK inspires confidence offshore. The latest 1,000-hour service was finalized in February 2025, when both port and starboard exhaust risers were replaced by D’Angelo, ensuring dependable operation for seasons to come.

In August 2024, HT HOOK received a full renewal of her teak deck and covering boards by Southern Craftsman, elevating durability while enhancing her timeless Merritt aesthetic.

From commanding performance to gracious accommodations and a meticulous service pedigree, HT HOOK is turnkey and poised for her next adventure—equally at home as a tournament Sportfisherman, a custom convertible, or a capable offshore motor yacht.
