Description
“Perfect Timing” was originally a Great Lakes based cruiser for roughly the first half of her life. The layout is the more desirable VIP configuration. In 1995 new (not rebuilt) 12V71TA engines were installed. At the time of original construction Hatteras added additional fuel capacity and the hydraulic bow thruster. Continually updated recent improvements include opening the galley to the salon providing an expanded counter and added storage. Recently hauled for anti fouling paint, zincs and stabilizer seals.

Salon
The main salon has an Hancock & Moore leather L-shaped sectional sofa to port and two occasional chairs opposite. The big screen TV, VCR and stereo are built into the cabinetry surrounding the starboard stairs to the master stateroom.
