Couldnโt of asked for a better day!! Captain and crew were awesome ! Ceviche was the best Iโve ever had. Videos and pictures tell it all. Canโt wait for our next trip.
What a fun day on the water. Fishing is fishing and we didnโt being in a catch, but that was not without lots of effort of the crew! I highly recommend!
This charter was not as advertised. I believe they provided us an alternate boat and captain. The boat was not the one pictured or described. It was much smaller and did not have enough seating for the four of us. Despite communicating in advance that it was a family trip, there was no thought or care given to the particulars of our group. The seas were rough, which comes with the territory, but the age of the boat, the shape of itโs engines (including pungent diesel smells for the entire charter and high noise level), and the tiny aft deck did not allow for any comfort. There were two plastic benches with no back support, clearly not sufficient for a 6 hour charter. If we hadnโt offloaded half our party a hour into the sail, it would not have worked.
The crew were friendly enough and they did work hard to try and find fish, though they did not communicate a lot. They were fairly disengaged making it pretty dull between the two bites we got over six hours. There were drinks and some snacks, but again, not the sandwiches and guacamole that had been promised. Rather just some cut fruit and chips and salsa.
We did land a sailfish and a jack but in the end it was not good value for money and not what we had been promised or were expecting. We are generally pretty forgiving and made the best of things, but I would not recommend this charter.

Hola Nick,
Yes, we had a problem with the engine that morning soon after we left the marina; we actually had to wait to be towed back in. While this was happening, we contacted Carlos, who is a good friend of ours, and we have trusted before with other clients, to take you out fishing.
His boat is very similar to ours, the same size, the same gear, and a good crew. He charges the same price as we do.
I apologize for not letting you know at the moment but we did not want you to stand on the pier and not be able to go out fishing, especially after you told us how much your son loves it, so we did what we thought was better.
That day not many boats came back having caught a Sailfish.
Again, I am sorry for the inconvenience.
Regards.
