Families Love The Nostalgia that the Distraction Charter Boat offers!

We would like to introduce you to the 41′ charter boat Distraction. She is a 62 Hatteras and is in immaculate shape for her age.  She was completely re-built in 2002 and again in 2017.  We installed a new engines in 2017, a new 9kw generator in 2019.  In 2023, we replaced our original fuel tanks with two new 200 gallon marine grade aluminum tanks.   In 2024, we completely restored our v-berth or the front room and now as 4 sleeping bunks.   By constantly reinvesting in our charter boat, ensures your trip goes off without a hitch.  She is made out of thick fiberglass and is very safe. Her interior is clean and odor free.

Why It’s Important To Choose A Charter Boat That Is Well Maintained

When you see our charter boat, you can tell that we care about her.  She is not fancy, but she is very modern.   Choosing a charter boat that is well maintained, fully operational and safe is the most important goal of any parent who is contemplating taking their family deep sea fishing.  We go the extra mile each year to make sure our charter boat is ready to go, so we won’t have any down time or equipment failures before, during or after your trip.   Even though we spend close to $33,000 a year on maintenance, we still have a few unforeseen battery failures, relay failures, and an occasional electrical issue and sometimes a minor mechanical issues.  In 2023, we spent over $64,000 replacing fuel tanks and adding new electronics, fish finders and radars.   The good thing is, we have two engines and back up systems on board to ensure we have an uneventful fishing trip.  In 2024, we spent over $30,000 on our v-berth restoration.

She has a kitchen sink and a microwave on board. Our refrigerator is compact so we encourage you to always bring your own cooler full of your favorite beverages and food. If you don’t have a cooler, that’s not a problem. We always have a big cooler on the back deck.
