JINX IV is part of the “Legacy of the Knit Wits”, the first fiberglass production boat produced. An excerpt from the Knit Wits brochure will give you a feel for the passion that was behind the birth of the Hatteras 41 Fiberglass Sport Fisherman. “As the wind howled outside the windows that May morning in 1959, Willis Slane paced fretfully across the rustic lounge of the Hatteras Marlin Club. When it came to deep-sea fishing, Slane – one of the club’s founders and a hosiery manufacturer from High Point, North Carolina – was a fanatic. He was furious that the nor’easter was keeping him and his friends pinned to the dock when they should be out trolling the edge of the Gulf Stream for billfish. At Cape Hatteras the cold waters of the Labrador Current collide with the warm waters of the Gulf Stream to create some of the most treacherous seas on earth. With the wind out of the northeast, waves can pile up ten feet and more. The wooden boats then available for sport fishing simply wouldn’t stand up to the pounding. As the group cussed the weather and swapped fishing tales. Slane mused that one day someone would build a sport fishing boat which would stand up to about anything the waters off Cape Hatteras could throw at it and keep on going. It would probably be made of fiberglass he said, recalling a recent dramatic encounter he had had with the new material.” The original brochure depicting the story of the birth of the Knit Wits will be presented to the purchaser of this incredible yacht at time of settlement.
