This 38 foot vessel for hire is manufactured by NEWTON. They are famous for building a tough as nails boat designed specifically for commercial operations. This vessel is currently running as a limited load six pack, and will soon reinstate its 12 pack max passengers. During the summer this vessel runs 12 hour tuna trips, both offshore and to the Coronado Islands. Year round, this vessel will run daily rockfishing trips and lobster trips.

The vessel has a 16' beam. Sixteen feet! The back deck on this boat is bigger than most boats under 50 feet. This wide beam hull also means stability in even the roughest conditions. Additionally, the vessel has a centrally located four scoop bait tank, tuna tower, full walk around port and starboard, a clean head, and a simple but super nice galley. Top of the line electronics and tackle round out the package.

Captain Mike O'Brien is a veteran of the big boats out of the San Diego landings, with over a decade of experience, he knows the spots and techniques that will put fish on the deck even when the other boats struggle. This Captain specializes on half day, three quarter day, and full day local trips.

Your captain has mounted grand-slam outriggers for trolling, as well as Penn, Phoenix, and Calstar rods paired with Penn and Accurate reels. These are all included in your trip! Your trip also includes lures, live bait on longer trips, and snacks and drinks. Departing out of Mission Bay in the city of San Diego, you’ll be in prime position to explore everything from fish-filled kelp beds to offshore hotspots. Capt. Mike runs an impressive variety of shared and private charters, which are all customizable. No matter your skill level, you’ll find something to suit you perfectly. Newer anglers or families can opt for exciting, budget-friendly shorter trips to nearshore waters, where Halibut, Calico Bass, and Rockfish can be found. More experience under your belt? Head out for a full day and battle oversized Tuna!
