Predator Sport Fishing offers offshore charters out of Hatteras, North Carolina, docked at Hatteras Harbor Marina, owned by Captain Bill and Theresa Bonner and captained by Chris Barnett. A third-generation waterman born and raised on the Outer Banks, Captain Chris mated on some of the top boats in the Hatteras fleet for more than eight years before earning his own captain’s license, and has also run a commercial boat out of Wanchese during the off-season.
As one of the largest boats in the Hatteras charter fleet, Predator is a 57-foot custom Carolina boat built by Leonard Rigsbee, powered by twin Cummins Diamond diesel engines. The spacious, air-conditioned salon features a TV/VCR/DVD combo, satellite radio, a microwave/convection oven, and a Keurig. The large cockpit is outfitted with a teak Release Marine fighting chair and two companion chairs, rigged with top-of-the-line Shimano Tiagra reels for trolling, lighter Shimano TLD setups for sailfish and white marlin, and Shimano Torium 30 jigging setups for tuna, jacks, grouper, and tilefish.
With 50 reviews and a 96% recommendation rate on Facebook, Predator Sport Fishing has built a strong local reputation in the competitive Hatteras charter scene.
For anglers looking for a large, well-equipped offshore fishing charter out of Hatteras, Predator Sport Fishing offers an experienced operation with Captain Chris Barnett — though current availability should be confirmed given the boat’s recent sale listing.
