(! Many charter boats dock in the harbor at the end of Hatteras Island. Haul seining is just one tradition vanishing from the Hatteras waterfront. Other changes include the decline of boat slips for commercial watermen. "During the last 25 years, more than 100 boat slips have been lost to private developers," according to Lynne Foster, an organizer for "Day at the Docks: A Celebration of Hatteras Island Watermen." Commercial fishing captains are now competing for the remaining 50 slips left in Hatteras — a tiny community on the southern end of Hatteras Island, which stretches 60 miles from Oregon to Hatteras inlets. The island also includes the small communities of Rodanthe, Waves, Salvo, Avon, Buxton and Frisco. Some of the docks in Hatteras are at fish houses, which have declined — from six to two — in recent years. "Without the fish houses, there'll be no commercial fishing industry here," says Susan West, a member of the N.C. Joint Legislative Commission on Seafood and Aquaculture and wife of a commercial fisherman. "There'll be no place for fishermen to dock or unload the catch." There is only one public slip for recreational and charter boats on Hatteras Island — in the middle of the Hatteras Harbor Marina. "Even if fishermen could afford to buy a slip at a marina, the logistics of marketing would be difficult," says West.
