She runs on two 250 HP Yamaha engines that can take you to all the best fishing spots in the Florida Keys. The vessel can accommodate up to 8 guests for sightseeing tours, 6 guests for fishing, and there’s enough room for everybody to fish and have a great time. We have all the necessary navigational and safety equipment to give you peace of mind while out on the water. We carry a fighting chair to help you pull in those heavy prize catches and snorkeling equipment for you to hop in the water and meet some exciting species close up. We also have a cooler, and a toilet for your convenience. We carry spearfishing equipment as well for another fun way to enjoy the “Florida Cracker” fishing experience. We like to target Wahoo, Tuna, and Red Snapper, but we would really love it if we saw you reel in a beautiful Mahi Mahi or a massive Goliath Grouper! The Florida Keys are amazing, and the weather is gorgeous most of the year. We are near many great vacation spots as well, so after the trip you’ll always be a short drive from where you’re staying to unwind or continue your awesome vacationing!
