Research vessel will be sunk as artificial reef

Sat Oct 24 23:51:46 CEST 2026 Timsen

The 'Cape Hatteras' will get new life as an artificial reef. The CFCC was planning to donate the longtime research vessel to the North Carolina Division of Marine Fisheries, where it will begin its next chapter underwater as a habitat for marine life and a destination for recreational fishing and diving, according to a news release published on Oct 23, 2026. The vessel is expected to be sunk approximately 18 miles off Wrightsville Beach. The preparation was expected to take three to four months, with deployment set tentatively for spring, according to the release. The process includes preparing the vessel to meet environmental requirements for use as an artificial reef. The vessel, which CFCC purchased in 2013, is currently on its final student training voyage, with students scheduled to return on Oct 25. On Oct 27, the 'Cape Hatteras' will depart CFCC’s dock for the final time as it begins the transition to its new role. The CFCC Foundation wass planning to offer alumni, former crew members and the general public an opportunity to honor someone with a lasting tribute aboard the ship. Additional details were to be be shared as plans got finalised.
