Chances R Charters invites you to explore the pristine Gulf waters aboard a legendary boat. There is hardly a better thing to do than cruising the deep blue waters or heading to the local reefs in and around Panama City, Florida.

Chances R Charters is run by Capt. Stephen Brookings. An experienced captain, he has been on the boat since a very young age and knows the local waters like the back of his hand. Capt. Stephen will put his talent to work for you no matter your age and expertise.

You will go out aboard the 'Chances R' with 53' of excellence, she is a spacious and comfortable fishing machine. Her twin 450 HP Detroit engines will power you to the hottest grounds and her navigational and fish-finding electronics will save you time while searching for a big one.

The Chances R is fully outfitted with professional tools and accessories, as well as all the necessary safety equipment. She has all the comfort of her home, including two toilets, a shower, a kitchen, and eight sleeping quarters, as well as air-conditioned cabins. There is plenty of space for up to 20 passengers. All aboard!

Capt. Stephen with Chances R will take you fishing up to 72 miles out in the Gulf of Mexico. Hit the offshore waters, reefs, and wrecks in search of both game and tablefish. Take as many species off your personal bucket list as you possibly can. Target Red, Cubera, and Vermillion Snapper go for Skipjack Tuna and Amberjack, Triggerfish, various types of Grouper, and King Mackerel. The opportunities abound in the fishing paradise!

All you have to bring is your food and snacks, everything else will be provided for a successful and fun fishing trip.
