 We invested heavily
in 2007 with the most luxurious charter
boat on the east coast. With twin 300HP diesels for safety and
top speeds of just under 30 knots and with cruising speeds of twenty
knots twice the speed of most charter boats halving offshore trips &
tope fishing trips steaming times, extending your angling day. Anglers
have the comfort of sheltered seating in the heated crew cab, on deck
toilet facilities , this boat is also equipped with some of the
most modern electronics available including colour
fish finders forward looking sonar's, satellite navigation, colour
radar overlay , and plotters, flat screen instructional TV in fact this superb boat wants for
nothing. With plenty of comfortable fishing deck space a walk around
island wheel house ideal for keen uptiders what more could the angler need,
we also have facilities for heating up your pies on cold winters
days. This boat is also ideal for corporate entertainment, site seeing trips,
and river cruises which can include a two hour fishing taster,
fast crew changes and surveys also available, member of the

Its
your day out so why compromise with any old out of date slow
charter boat or undersized boat were your crammed in shoulder to
shoulder it could be embarrassing if its a corporate day out or your
entertaining clients and you can book this fantastic up to date boat for around
the same price? Its exhilaratingly faster, with more space,
more comfort, safer with twin engines, increasing your days enjoyment
and you don't have to spend a penny in a bucket or get soaking wet
before you start fishing. Offshore marks
in the summer take no time at all to reach, these productive marks ten to
twenty miles off could take hours in a slower charter boat
wasting your fishing time and as we all no time is a precious thing especially
fishing time.

| The Thames Estuary
is a vast expanse of shoal and sandbanks holding a large variety of fish
species including; Bass, Smooth Hound, Mackerel, Tope and Skate in summer months
with Cod and Whiting etc in the winter months. Often when south coast
charter boats are in harbour due to strong winds Thames Estuary boats are
still able to find sheltered fishing, thus often avoiding cancellations
and costly wasted journeys. Most fishing is anchored ground fishing, Uptide/Downtide, and wrecking trips by special arrangement dependant on
weather conditions.
Rods and fishing equipment can be hired and bait can be supplied, any
live
bait ordered must be paid for in full and no refund can be given on any
live
bait ordered. IMPORTANT DO NOT FORGET TO TELEPHONE
THE NIGHT BEFORE YOUR CHARTER FOR A WEATHER CHECK !!!
A seventy pound deposit is required to confirm any booking, which is
fully refundable (less any live bait costs) if weather conditions prevent safe
sailing, this is at the discretion of the skipper. We can
not refund deposits if you cancel but we will try to reschedule your trip to
another date if we are given a four week notice.
Hot tea and coffee is on offer all day while on board the boat.
