About the Fishing Boat :
It is 40 foot long by 14 foot wide with a fiberglass custom made North Carolina style hull. It is powered by two turbo charged Caterpillar diesels.  It cruises at 20 knots and is capable of over 25 knots. It carries a generator onboard to power a coffee pot, microwave for heating food and extra lights for overnight trips. The cockpit is 12 X 14 with two large cushioned engine covers that can be used for seating. It is tournament equipped and has all modern electronics. The boat carries 25 rods and reels with fighting belts for stand-up fishing. It has a fish box that will hold 1000 pounds of fish. We do not have A/C or a TV, nor interior shag carpeting but we do Catch Fish!

The boat is licensed for parties up to six people and all bait and tackle is furnished. If you would like to bring your own tackle you may, but we are not responsible if it gets broken.
