North Carolina is home to some of the best inshore and nearshore fishing spots on the East Coast, from the tranquil waters of the Outer Banks to the bustling fishing scene in Wrightsville Beach and Morehead City. If you’re looking for a boat that delivers high-speed performance, shallow-water capability, and serious fishing features, the 2024 Pathfinder 2300 HPS is built for you.
At Dyer Marine, we know that North Carolina anglers need a boat that can handle everything from skimming across the shallows in the Pamlico Sound to chasing tarpon along the coast. Let’s dive into real-life scenarios where the Pathfinder 2300 HPS for sale proves to be the ultimate inshore fishing companion.
1. Navigating Shallow Coastal Waters with Ease
Imagine an early morning fishing trip in the Crystal Coast area. The fish are biting in the backwaters, but getting there means navigating through skinny water and oyster beds.
✔ With the stepped hull design and 6-inch hydraulic jackplate, you can run shallower than most boats while still maintaining high-speed performance.
✔ The vacuum-infused construction makes the boat lighter and more efficient, allowing you to access remote fishing spots without worrying about running aground.
✔ Whether you’re in Bogue Sound, the Cape Fear River, or Roanoke Island, the Pathfinder 2300 HPS ensures you never miss a prime fishing location due to water depth.
2. Chasing Redfish & Trout in the Pamlico Sound
Picture yourself drifting across the calm waters of Pamlico Sound, targeting trophy redfish, speckled trout, and flounder. With unpredictable conditions and shifting sandbars, you need a boat designed for versatility.
✔ The expanded deck space and walk-around gunwales allow you and your crew to move freely while casting and reeling in fish.
✔ The 35-gallon aft center livewell keeps your bait lively, so you’re always ready when the fish start running.
✔ The self-bailing cockpit means no worrying about water accumulation, even if a summer storm passes through.
Whether you’re fishing the flats near Cedar Island or working a drop-off near Ocracoke, the Pathfinder 2300 HPS has everything you need for a successful day on the water.
3. Fishing the Nearshore Wrecks & Artificial Reefs
The North Carolina coast is famous for its nearshore wrecks and artificial reefs, holding schools of Spanish mackerel, kingfish, and cobia. You need a boat that can handle the transition from the backwaters to deeper waters effortlessly.
✔ The Pathfinder 2300 HPS can handle up to 300 horsepower, meaning you can cruise out to nearshore spots quickly when conditions allow.
✔ The deep-V forward entry hull gives you a smooth ride even when chop picks up near the inlets.
✔ The large storage compartments let you bring multiple rod setups, so you’re prepared for everything from bottom fishing to live baiting for king mackerel.
Whether you’re launching from Wrightsville Beach, Atlantic Beach, or Oregon Inlet, this boat provides the performance and reliability needed for a day on the water.
4. Family Fun & Coastal Adventures
While the Pathfinder 2300 HPS is built for serious anglers, it’s also perfect for family-friendly adventures along the North Carolina coast. Whether you’re heading to Shackleford Banks to see the wild horses or spending the day island hopping in the Outer Banks, this boat makes every trip effortless.
✔ The spacious deck and forward seating provide plenty of room for family and friends.
✔ The built-in cooler keeps drinks cold, making it easy to enjoy a beach day or sunset cruise.
✔ The optional head compartment adds extra convenience for long days on the water.
