The original facility was closed after 30 years and all manufacturing was stabilized at the 95-acre waterfront site in New Bern, where they still operate today. Hatteras Yachts then wanted to develop a series of convertibles; sportfishing yachts. Sportfishing yachts, compatible of fishing tournaments as well as carrying owners and guests in comfort while on an offshore excursion. Hatteras also created an array of semi-custom luxury motor yachts, a better focus on comfort and cruising rather than sportfishing.
