Perfect Charter
Half Day Trip – Inshore on June 27, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 children
We had a great morning with Capt Van. The boat is clean and very comfortable with great equipment. Van was the perfect instructor for our 8 year old grandson. We hit the jackpot with mackerel. We filled the live well in less than 5 minutes. The striped bass weren't vey hungry, but we did manage to land a nice 32" catch and release fish. Good times, would definitely go again!

Peter, It was great having you and your "boys" on Karavi. It was a fun day and I'm sure the young man had fun and learned a lot.

Great trip
Half Day Trip – Inshore on September 7, 2024 • 4 adults
The fishing was slow in the morning but picked up in the afternoon. We had a great time and it felt more like fishing with a friend than a charter. I would absolutely go back.

Bill. It was great having you and the family aboard Karavi. I enjoyed your company and stories. I'm glad you also enjoyed it. I know it was tough early as the seas were pretty angry, but fishing did pick up and got exciting...come again...

Full Day Inshore on July 18, 2024 • 3 adults
Excellent day on the water. We caught 2 good sized Strippers when the captain put us in the middle of a bait feeding season! His boat is clean, fast and comfortable! Thank you Captain Van!

Great day in Boston
Half Day Trip – Inshore on September 2, 2023 • 4 adults • 1 child
Captain Van was great. It was a slow day but he worked hard, moved around, and didn't end our trip until we caught fish. He was great. I highly recommend and will book again in the future. Thank you Captain!
