Charter Boat “TradeWinds” is a famous boat that takes anglers of all ages and skill levels to the beautiful waters in and around Destin, Florida. Exploring the "World’s Luckiest Fishing Village” aboard the TradeWinds is an experience you won't forget.

The TradeWinds is a huge 65’ Bonner custom walkaround boat, with plenty of space for up to 49 passengers. Even better, all guests can fish at the same time – so get ready to indulge in some friendly competition! She was fully up hauled in 2015 and comes powered by twin 375 HP John Deer engines. The TradeWinds is outfitted with Furuno navigational and fish finding electronics to save your time while searching for fish. She is wheelchair-friendly and is equipped with all the necessary safety facilities, including two 30-man liferafts.

Apart from professional accessories, the TradeWinds is a comfortable fishing vessel. She features an air-conditioned cabin and 2 bathrooms, which are much-needed things when you spend your day on the water.

The TradeWinds is owned by Capt. Brian Howard- a Destin native, and primarily driven by Capt. Larry Meyer-  a talented and professional fisherman with thousands of hours of experience. Capt. Larry will put his knowledge and talent to work for you and will take you to the hottest spots. The deckhand(s) will assist you and work hard to make sure you have a pleasant experience. A customary 20% tip for their effort is appreciated.

The crew specializes in bottom fishing and trolling for a variety of species, including but not limited to Red Snapper, Wahoo, Groupers, King Mackerel, Mahi Mahi, Cobia, Amberjack, and even Porbeagle, Mako, and Blue Sharks.

Whether you are looking for a fun day with family and friends or a corporate outing, a wedding, a birthday, a bachelor party, or any other event, the TradeWinds is ready for it.

All trips are private and come with rods, reels, tackle, bait, and license. When you return to shore, your catch will be cleaned at no additional cost.
