Description
The Antares 8 Fishing boasts a sleek sporty design and delivers new features that will be popular with anyone who loves sea activities, particularly fishing; with the characteristic style and elegance of this iconic line and real comfort.
The Antares 8 Fishing is far more sporty in style than the Antares 8 Cruising and boasts dedicated equipment for fishers. Its modular cockpit makes movement easier and every detail has been optimised.
The aft bench has been replaced by a fishing station with professional-grade rod holders. In addition to the water circulation live bait well, there are three storage compartments under the deck, one of which can hold a fish box.
A major new feature is the side access gate to starboard, making mooring maneuvers easier and also making it easier to lift larger catches on board.
The Antares 8 includes all the creature comforts you need for coastal cruising: a kitchenette with refrigerator and a gas or electric hob according to preference. It can also be equipped with air conditioning.
Up to five passengers can spend the night on board, thanks to two double berths; one in the cabin and the other in the wheelhouse. An additional berth can be arranged in the space under the saloon.
The fishing equipment on the Antares 8 Fishing makes it the ideal boat for keen saltwater fishers.
The Antares 8 has a flared hull design specific to the Antares line, making it extremely stable in all weather conditions. The integrated ergonomic driving station has room for an optional 12” control display. Powered by a 250-HP engine, the Antares 8 can reach a speed of 35 knots.
The wheelhouse hard top, shortened to make casting easier, can house a 12” display for finding fishing spots.
The rod holders are built-in to the freeboards but also into the hard top continuing the roof. An aft searchlight is located on the roof, and an LED projector light faces forward to increase visibility when navigating by night.
The modular saloon with folding benches provides optimal space and makes crew movements easier. Once the removable table is installed and the benches unfolded, the Antares 8 Fishing provides a comfortable saloon in which to enjoy good company.

The name Chuck Laughlin is synonymous with St. Barts Yachts. After graduating from the University of Illinois, Chuck spent 10 years in the Middle East and Far East working for Schlumberger in the oilfields. In 1986 he returned to the US to start a development company. In 1987, while building Harborgate Marina in N. Myrtle Beach, SC, Chuck decided to open a yacht brokerage and teamed up with the newly built Beneteau Marion factory. In the first ten years St Barts expanded their dealership territory from Horry County to SC, NC, GA and TN. In the fall of 1996 St Barts relocated to Charleston, SC with the move of Beneteau corporate. Soon after Chuck opened locations in Oriental, NC and Jacksonville, FL to better represent his Southeast clientele. After almost 30 years, Chuck still loves the yachting business. As an engineer he derives great satisfaction from putting a boat together well, from just the spark of an idea to the final commissioning details. He takes great pride in the relationships he has formed over the years with boat owners, watching them enjoy their new boats. Chuck is an avid sailor and boater. He is just as happy taking his wife Lisa and their 2 kids sailing as he is taking his ten closest friends out motoring in Charleston harbor. When not at work, you can often find Chuck relaxing at the James Island Yacht Club.
