Unfortunately we don't see enough volume to be able to pre-arrange split parties.
However, our marina arranges what we call "make-ups" on its boats
according to a rotation schedule.

Make - ups cannont be arranged weeks ahead;
bookings are done weekly from May through September or October.
To get your name on the make up list, just call the marina
at 252-986-2166 when you get to Hatteras.
The price of a make up is $
240 per person for a 6 party trip
and $2
70 per person for a 5 person trip.
