Captain Cole and the crew were absolutely phenomenal! They were super accommodating, helped us load all our stuff on and off the boat, and made sure we caught a ton of fish! It felt like fish were jumping on the boat - we were literally catching fish before the sinker even hit the bottom! I’ve been on quite a few charters, but I have always caught the most on the Queen Mary. The boat was clean and the guys did a great job of making sure it stayed that way throughout the entire trip. We also like this particular boat because the tables inside are super convenient for guests to be able to eat. 10/10 boat for sure!
Michelle, Thanks so much for the 5 stars! Sorry for the little bit of confusion on the dock. Glad your party enjoyed a gorgeous afternoon aboard! Capt Cole and crew try their hardest to make your trip a great one. Hope to see you aboard in the future Capt Dave Cole and crew
Had a great time again on the Queen Mary with captain Dave and the crew. Caught some Blue and some Sea Bass, awesome time out on the water
So glad you had a fine experience aboard our Queen Mary! Thanks Capt Dave
totally recommend excellent service excellent crew amazing captain thank you we have a blesses.
Hands down an amazing experience from booking with the Captain all the way down to filleting the fish. Crew was extremely knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. Every time you pulled a fish in, someone from the crew was there willing to help you unhook and throw it in to your cooler. Rod rentals were very nice. Got the right equipment for the job. We caught bluefish, sea bass, mackerel and some bonitos all from the same set up! The heads on board were clean. The whole ship was clean!! The Clean Queen Mary! Will definitely come back and book other trips.
So glad you two had a fantastic day aboard Capt Dave

Your captain
I started fishing with my father as a little boy and continued as a captain after graduating from the University of San Diego in 1990. In 1997, the first Purple Jet arrived and we have been putting smiles on customers' faces ever since! The Queen Mary Open Party Fishing boat became part of the fleet in 2011.
