Hop aboard Reel Affair, our 57’ Viking Convertible Sportfish, for an unrivaled fishing experience. Reel Affair was built by Viking Yachts, one of the world’s most renowned boat builders and has been producing high-end custom yachts since 1964 until current. This vessel is the largest and most luxurious in our fleet and is also second to none in the Cayman Islands charter fleet.

Reel Affair has a fully air-conditioned cabin equipped with three staterooms (or bedrooms), two heads (restrooms), a full galley (kitchen) with a full-sized refrigerator, and a spacious salon (sitting area) with ample seating. The salon features a dinette, sofa, flat screen TV, surround sound, WIFI, and much more.

Reel Affair’s flybridge boasts modern and top-of-the-line electronics, and ample seating with a stunning 360° view of the ocean, all while enjoying plenty of shade and a cool Caribbean Sea breeze.

Reel Affair is a sport fishing boat, so naturally, she is outfitted with top-notch fishing equipment; we have two outriggers, a center rigger, two down riggers, and top-of-the-line rods and reels. This allows us to have a minimum of 6 lines in the water simultaneously, at different lengths and depths, and baited for an array of big game pelagic fish, providing you with the most excellent chance to hook up and GET THOSE RODS BENT!

Down in the large cockpit, you will notice our state-of-the-art fighting chair explicitly built to help you muscle in those big game fish in comfort and style. Our cockpit is also equipped with a freshwater wash-down pump, so you can rinse off when you finish swimming, a fish box where we can store your catch, as well as a tackle and rigging station where you can watch our crew prepare your baits and gear.

Reel Affair also features a large swim platform with a ladder on her transom (back of the boat), making it effortless to climb out of the water after your swim with the rays or snorkel session along our beautiful reefs.

Full Day Deep Sea - AM on July 22, 2023

We had an awesome day fishing with Reel Affair the captain had us perfectly positioned for the late morning tide change and we were able to catch several black fin tuna, dorado, and a yellow tail. Then for the encore we hooked up a nice sized wahoo! Fun for everyone!

Get Bent Charters is a family-owned business run by Nicholas and Matthew Panton, who have been operating charters for a combined total of nearly 24 years. They have spent their entire lives fishing in the Cayman Islands, ever since they were old enough to hold a rod. Matt and Nick were raised in a family which put great importance on being on the water, so they feel as at home on the sea as on land. These two brothers' love of the sea, combined with their extensive experience fishing both inshore and offshore, makes for the most productive Cayman Islands fishing you will find. And Matt and Nick will do more than just put you on fish, sharing their favorite beaches, and making sure you are having fun and getting the most out of your trip, whatever you choose to do.
