SHOWTIME IS A CLASSIC HATTERAS 41′ SPORTFISH
Showtime has quite the rich history. She began her life in 1968 as the “Bahama Mama” in the British Colony of North Bimini, Bahamas.
Her first captain was Harold “Shoestring” Rolles. Growing up, Shoestring often was the mate for Ernest Hemingway. The former owners of the “Bahama Mama” specialized in light tackle fishing for blue water species, such as blue and white marlin. They often won the tournaments they entered.
Her second owner, a former TWA pilot, renamed her “Seaplane”. She was refitted in Ft. Lauderdale and used as a pleasure craft to island hop the Bahama Islands.
In 1984, she was purchased and moved to New Jersey as a live-aboard boat.
