DiscoverBoating 10 Easy Ways to Save Money on Boat Ownership Costs

U

sing tools like our Boat Loan Calculator makes it easy to nail down accurate monthly expense figures when you’re purchasing a boat, but like any substantial asset, there are other costs of boat ownership. You can, however, find plenty of way to save money on annual boat ownership. These 10 tips will be a good start as you decide how to manage your boat ownership expenses in the most cost-effective way. 1. Take full advantage of tax deductions. There are a number of ways boats can help you reduce your tax burden at the end of the year. • Your boat may count for a second home mortgage interest deduction; • In some cases they qualify as a business expense, boats that are chartered for profit may be a legitimate consideration; • If you use your boat to commute expenses could be deductible; • And when you’re ready to move on to a new boat you may be able to donate your old one to get an additional tax break. Naturally you’ll want to make sure that any exemptions you file for are completely legal and legitimate. But that may well be the case, so a discussion with your accountant is in order. 2. Run your boat at its most efficient cruising speed to save fuel. If you have a sailboat you’re in luck—any time the wind cooperates your fuel costs will be around

zero. But power-boaters will see a drastic reduction in their fuel bill if they run their boat at its most efficient speed—this involves knowing what it means to trim a boat, and how to properly trim a boat, which will improve its performance and fuel economy. All boats have a “sweet spot” where they get the best MPG (commonly around two-thirds of full throttle), which you can determine by watching fuel efficiency on your engine monitor or through trial and error. Either way, the important thing is to identify that most-efficient cruise, and then operate your boat at that specific speed whenever appropriate. 3. Consider fractional boat ownership. Why own 100-percent of a boat, if you’ll only be using it half the time? There’s nothing wrong with sharing your pride and joy with another owner or owners, and the financial benefits of sharing the cost can be huge. Plus, there are fractional ownership companies that take care of many of the ownership issues, so you can enjoy fractional ownership even if you don’t have a group of friends or family who want in. Particularly when it comes to large boat or yachts, for people with limited time availability fractional ownership makes a lot of sense. 4. Keep your boat and its power system properly maintained. This includes things like making sure the bottom isn’t covered in growth and keeping the engine(s) in

good running condition so you don’t lose efficiency. But keeping the boat well maintained will also pay off in the long run, because expensive break-downs and equipment failure becomes much less likely. 5. Take a boating education course online or on-water. It’s always a good idea to continually expand your knowledge and skillset when it comes to boating, and taking a boating class can help you do just that. The better educated you are the less likely it is that you’ll make a costly mistake while running your boat. Plus, in some cases being better educated can get you an insurance break. Since many boater education courses are free, that makes taking one a win-win. 6. Reassess your boat storage options. You may be able to save money on your slip by shopping at several different marinas, because pricing can vary widely depending on the marina’s location and amenities. You may also be able to save money in the long run if you buy a trailer and store your boat rentfree, at home. And in the off-season you might find that there’s less expensive winter storage available inland, as opposed to leaving it at the boatyard. 7. Brush up your DIY (do-it-yourself) skills. While significant mechanical work should probably be left to the professionals, there’s nothing wrong with handling minor chores ranging from cleaning your boat, to winterizing it, to installing new boating accessories.

Naturally you’ll want to use good judgement and be sure you don’t bite off more than you can chew, but a little bit of elbow grease and determination can prevent some big bills from arriving in the mail. 8. If your boat is on a trailer, fill the fuel tank up at a gas station on land. Fuel costs are usually substantially higher at marinas, and boats hold a lot of fuel. However, whenever you fill up a trailer boat on land be sure to check the pumps and verify that you’re using the proper one. Many land-based gas stations carry E15 these days, and that can damage marine engines and fuel systems. 9. Make sure you have the proper boat insurance. While insurance is certainly a cost of ownership, it’s also the best way to prevent dipping into your bank account to cover large, unexpected expenses. And while it isn’t by definition “insurance,” also consider getting an on-water assistance and towing membership. All mechanical items including boats can break down, and a tow can be a very large and unexpected expense if you don’t have all the bases covered. 10. Consider placing your boat into a peer-topeer boat sharing marketplace. Many boat owners find that they can defray a large proportion of the cost of ownership—and sometimes even make a profit—by joining one of the boat sharing companies and letting some lucky renters get in on the fun.

Senator Cantwell Proposes New Incentives for Electric Boats

S

enator Maria Cantwell (DWA) this week introduced the Fueling America’s Security and Transportation with Electricity Act of 2021 (FAST Electricity Act), which creates a new federal tax incentive to accelerate the manufacturing and adoption of all types of electrified transportation modes ranging from recreational boats to industrial equipment. The FAST Electricity Act, described in the more detail here, would establish a 30% investment tax credit for any electrically propelled vehicle that is not an on-road passenger car or truck. The bill also provides a 30% investment tax credit for recharging or hydrogen refueling infrastructure needed to power the transportation vehicles of tomorrow. “The recreational boating industry applauds Senator Cantwell’s introduction of the FAST Electricity Act that would enable marine businesses to invest in next generation propulsion technologies and associated charging infrastructure,” said Callie Hoyt, director of federal affairs at the National Marine Manufacturers Association. “Providing incentives to boost investments in greener products is a top policy priority for NMMA and we look forward to working with Congress as the industry looks toward advancing next-gen technologies to further reduce emissions and conserve energy.”

The FAST Electricity Act will expand the existing Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing (ATVM) loan program to support expansion of domestic manufacturing of these new electric transportation options and the corresponding supply chains needed to produce them. Providing investment throughout the entire manufacturing ecosystem not only provide good jobs, but supports the innovation ecosystem needed to lead the future global market in electric transportation.

Sailors for the Sea Powered by Oceana Launches Updated Green Boating Guide Amid Boating Boom COVID-19 pandemic prompts major increase in first-time boat buyers, amplifying need for practical steps to reduce negative environmental impact

N

ewport, RI – Today, Sailors for the Sea Powered by Oceana released its updated Green Boating Guide during National Safe Boating Week and just before the unofficial start to summer in the United States. The Green Boating Guide is the leading resource providing boaters and sailors with practical and actionable steps to enjoy their time on the water in an environmentally responsible manner. Recreational boating and sailing saw a surge in 2020 as people sought socially distant outdoor activities, during the pandemic. Boat sales in the United States reached a 13-year high in 2020 and is expected to remain at historic levels through 2021, according to the National Marine Manufacturers Association. The trend was largely attributed to first-time boat buyers, which made up 34% of all new and pre-owned powerboat customers in the first half of last year, based on data from Info-Link. “We are excited to see more people experiencing

their local waters, during this difficult time. It’s important that we sailors and boaters - especially those new to this activity - be proactive about enjoying our pastime in an environmentally responsible and safe manner; our Green Boating Guide empowers you to do just that,” said Dr. Shelley Brown, Director of Sailors for the Sea. “The Green Boating Guide offers boaters simple steps to manage and maintain your boat to preserve the health and abundance of local waterways. Safety and the environment go hand in hand. By making choices to boat in a safe, sustainable, and ecosmart manner, we can help protect the waters and wildlife we love for generations to come.”

practical tips, and suggested solutions. More than 40,000 boaters have used the Green Boating Guide since it was first published in 2016.

Sailors for the Sea’s Green Boating Guide addresses 28 different topics that affect all recreational boaters, such as proper fueling techniques, nontoxic cleaning product recommendations, and navigating near wildlife and sensitive underwater habitats. Each topic includes research on the importance of boating in an eco-smart manner,

Visit sailorsforthesea.org/GreenBoatingGuide to receive a free, digital copy of Sailors for the Sea’s Green Boating Guide and join the Green Boating Initiative, the world’s leading community of Green Boaters taking action to restore the health of our oceans and waterways.

The new edition of the Green Boating Guide features two new topics, added based on feedback from the boating community. Repurpose Gear provides solutions on what sailors and boaters can do with boating items that have been outgrown or reached their end life, including wetsuits, life jackets, sails and ropes. Prop Scar Prevention offers advice on how to navigate your vessel safely in shallow waters to prevent damage to seagrass beds.

About Sailors for the Sea Powered by Oceana: Sailors for the Sea Powered by Oceana is the world’s leading ocean conservation organization that engages and activates the sailing and boating community toward restoring ocean health. Sailors for the Sea was founded in 2004 by David Rockefeller, Jr. and Dr. David Treadway, two avid sailors who recognized the importance of educating this constituency of ocean enthusiasts. In 2018, Sailors for the Sea joined forces with Oceana, the largest international advocacy organization dedicated solely to ocean conservation. Combining Sailors for the Sea’s goal of educating boaters about marine conservation with Oceana’s experience mobilizing supporters to advocate for policy that supports healthy and abundant oceans, the organization is achieving global reach.

R

ecent;y, the recreational fishing and boating community applauded the introduction of the Forage Fish Conservation Act by Senators Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) and Roy Blunt (R-Mo.). The legislation would require that the role forage fish play in the marine ecosystem be accounted for when federal fisheries managers set catch limits on these small but important fish. “Implementing responsible conservation practices for forage fish is essential to the long-term wellbeing of marine ecosystems and we thank Senators Richard Blumenthal and Roy Blunt for addressing this critical issue,” said Frank Hugelmeyer, president of the National Marine Manufacturers Association. “Healthy and sustainable forage fish and sportfish stocks are equally important to the recreational boating and fishing community and this measure is a major step toward protecting both of these critical populations.” In 2014, the Commission on Saltwater Recreational Fisheries Management, chaired by Bass Pro Shops Founder and CEO Johnny Morris and Maverick Boat Group Founder Scott Deal, released a report identifying key policy changes to the federal marine fisheries management system to benefit fisheries conservation and public access. One of the six key recommendations of that report was improving management and conservation of forage fish. “Forage fish are experiencing unprecedented fishing pressure to help satisfy the world’s growing demand for protein, being used for everything from feeding farmed fish and livestock to fertilizer. However, research shows that forage fish are worth over twice as much in the ecosystem by supporting stocks of more popular food fish and recreational game fish,” said Dr. Guy Harvey, chairman of the Guy Harvey Ocean Foundation. “We thank Sens. Blumenthal and Blunt for working on this issue, and we encourage Congress to quickly approve this valuable, science-based legislation.” “It is critical that we pay more attention to the tiniest of fish in our oceans because they are the base of the food chain and essential to the success of America’s blue economy,” said Jeff

Angers, president of the Center for Sportfishing Policy. “We thank Sens. Blumenthal and Blunt for reaching across the aisle to tackle this important conservation issue.” Forage fish provide food for nearly all recreationally important fish species, as well as seabirds and other marine life. Meanwhile, human demand for these nutrient-rich species continues to increase. However, the Magnuson-Stevens Act is not currently designed to account for the unique role of forage fish in the marine ecosystem, instead relying on traditional single-species management approaches. The Forage Fish Conservation Act would require that the impacts on fish populations and the marine ecosystem be considered before allowing harvest on any currently unmanaged forage species, and that predator needs be accounted for in existing management plans for forage fish. “It is virtually impossible to manage sportfish and predator populations successfully over the long-term without taking into account the food chain that supports them,” said Ted Venker, conservation director for Coastal Conservation Association. “We applaud this effort by Sens. Blumenthal and Blunt and hope that it will serve to enhance conservation of critical forage for the marine ecosystem.” “Forage Fish are the foundation of healthy marine ecosystems and recreational fisheries,” said Jason Schratwieser, president of the International Game Fish Association. “The IGFA would like to applaud Sens. Blumenthal and Blunt for their commitment to conservation of this critical group of fish species through the introduction of the Forage Fish Act.” “A significant number of the 12 million registered boats in the United States are used for recreational fishing. For many families, their fishing boat is their single biggest investment in outdoor recreation,” said Chris Edmonston, vice president of government affairs for BoatU.S.“Protecting the resource that keeps this family-friendly pastime viable is good policy.”

A VESSEL SAFETY CHECK - STUART - Despite numerous COVID-19 restrictions, more and more boaters are taking to the water to alleviate at-home boredom while taking advantage of the open-air benefits and more pandemicfree aspects of recreational boating. But if you haven’t been out boating in a while, are your vessel’s lights operating properly? Do you have a sufficient number of life jackets for the number of passengers aboard? Is your engine’s ventilation system up to par? To get you started on a new year boating adventure, now may be a perfect time to consider getting a 2021 Vessel Safety

www.TheMariner.com Check (VSC) offered by certified VSC examiners from the St. Lucie River Power Squadron, also known as America’s Boating Club of Martin County. These trained VSC examiners from the local squadron will point out safety features such as minimum requirements required by the U.S. Coast Guard, examine fundamental mechanical aspects of your vessel, and answer questions how you can have more fun safely on the water. These are just a few of the many discussion points covered in this voluntary examination. As an added plus, Vessel Safety Checks are free to boat owners. And if you don’t “pass muster” with the thorough examination, the summary report is yours and yours alone. No record of any possible deficiencies will be reported to the USCG, state agency or any other authority. Want to know more about this complimentary Vessel Safety Check program?

CLEARWATER COAST GUARD AUXILIARY TEACHING BOATING SAFETY CLASSES ONLINE - 2021 - A New Way to Learn … A New Crop of Safe Boaters. With the advent of COVID-19, the Coast Guard Auxiliary was advised to discontinue in-person classes for the safety of the instructors and students. The good news is that the State of Florida (FWC) and the National Association of Boating Law Administrators (NASBLA) have approved the Coast Guard Auxiliary to conduct online classes. These classes are not your standard webinar sessions where the students sit at their computers and are lectured at. And they’re not animated cartoon sessions where you have to keep pressing enter to get to the next topic. The Clearwater Coast Guard Auxiliary is offering outstanding “Boat America” course via two options: June 22nd & June 23rd; June 24th & June 25th (Four Evenings) ONLINE, 7:00 pm to 9:30 pm. Classes are $40 per student and include the books, supplemental materials and course completion certificates. The classes being offered by the Clearwater Coast Guard Auxiliary are conducted on Zoom with the same instructors the student would have had in the classroom and allowing lots of questions and answers. In addition, because the classes are on the Internet, there’s no commuting to a classroom – the students can be anywhere in Florida! The boating safety class is also a requirement for many boaters in Florida. In the Sunshine State, anyone born after Jan. 1, 1988, must successfully complete a boater safety course approved by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) in order to operate any boat powered by more than 10 horsepower, and they are required to carry their boater education card with them when out on the water along with picture ID.

Captain’sCorner

www.TheMariner.com

with Captain Sergio Atanes Dark Side of Fishing Midday thunderstorms and high temperatures often turn many anglers into night creatures searching for their prey. Several advantages come into play; the night brings out the best in tarpon, snook, trout and black drum fishing and some tolerable conditions. Fishing from shore Picnic Island fishing pier offers a great location for the whole family to spend several hours on a weekend catching fish. Boaters can launch either at the Courtney Campbell boat ramp or the Salty Sol boat ramp located one mile west of Westshore Blvd. on Gandy Blvd. The best fishing takes place about an hour after sundown through 2 a.m. Free lined live bait “meaning no weights are added” drifted under the lights will draw the attention of trout, snook and tarpon. Using LED underwater lights make nighttime fishing a breeze. The Hydro Glow LED Fish Light is designed to vertically suspend itself below the surface of the water radiating a bright green glow in all directions. This design utilizes 100% of the light generated by the light for the designed purpose, attracting fish. The bright fluorescent green light gets it effectiveness by attracting the entire aquatic food chain. From microscopic plankton to various sizes of minnow, to many species of game fish, all find the Hydro Glow Fish Light irresistible. Boaters can also take advantage of dock lights following the same

West Central Florida Southwest Coast

pattern. The live bait should be allowed to drift with the current flow from the shadow line into the light and back into the dark. Most important when dock fishing at night is to always respect the owner’s right to privacy and avoid loud noises by using the stealth system. That means be quiet! Some of my favorite baits, shad and greenback sardines both can be caught under the bridges at night with a bait cast net. Shrimp are on top of the food chain except summer months they tend to be on the small size and are often rechecked by the big fish. Artificial baits work well if presented right, mu favorite is Fishbites paddle tail with a 1/8 oz jig head work slowly with the current. Start by casting past the dock and work in from the dark to the edge of the lights, If the lights are on the bottom of the dock bounce it along the edge of the light. Remenber to pick a spot with lightor create your own using a Coleman lantern, Hydro Glow light or on many new boats they are equipped with underwater lighting from the factory. The light must be strong enough to draw small bait fish, be patient and they will come. Do not overlook bottom fishing I have caught snook; cobia and black drum on a bottom rig while catching snook, trout and tarpon on the surface. Boaters need to anchor or use your trolling motor spot lock if equipped under the bridge with the stern of the boat just even with the shadow line

with Captain Rick Grassett Tarpon should be plentiful in the coastal gulf this month as big schools of fish migrate along our beaches. Also look for cobia, tripletail and false albacore (little tunny) in the coastal gulf. Catch and release snook fishing should also be good in and around passes and in the surf. Fishing should also be good on deep grass flats for a variety of species. Tarpon fishing should be strong this month as schools of fish increase in size and numbers. They will head off shore to spawn close to new and full moons. Set up in travel lanes along the beach at first light in the morning and cast live crabs, baitfish, DOA Baitbusters and Swimming Mullet to them. I travel well offshore along the beach in the morning to avoid disturbing schools of tarpon that may be traveling close to the beach. Once you’ve reached the area you intend to fish, ease into the beach with an electric trolling motor and set up in your spot. You can anchor or drift, depending on conditions. Give other anglers several hundred yards of space. Since fish may be moving both north and south, setting up too close to another angler may negatively affect their fishing. Tarpon fishing is very dependent on conditions and there are a lot of variables that need to come together to be successful. DaveReinhartSarasotatarponfight3 Use tackle heavy enough to land them as quickly as possible. When fly fishing, I use 12-weight rods and large arbor reels capable of holding 300-yards or more of backing. I use a variety of baitfish, shrimp or crab fly patterns fished on floating fly lines. The shallower the water, the easier it is to get your fly in front of a fish when fly fishing. Stake out or anchor in travel lanes to get shots at them. When spin fishing, I usually drift a couple of live baits under a float while we wait for tarpon schools to pass by. Blind casting with DOA Baitbusters or Swimming

20

Snook and reds remain closed to harvest south of State Rd 64 in Manatee County on the west coast of Florida, south to the south bank of Gordon Pass in Collier County. Reds and snook are catch and release only in that zone until May 31, 2022. Spotted Seatrout will reopen in the south zone with a 3 fish per person, bag limit and a 6 fish boat limit. Trout must be from 15”-19” with one allowed per vessel over 19”. Full regulations can be viewed at https://myfwc.com/ . This is great news for our fishery. You should find snook in the surf, in passes and around docks and bridges in the ICW near passes. You can walk the beach and sight fish them in the surf with fly or spinning tackle. Small baitfish fly patterns, CAL jigs with shad tails and jerk worms or DOA shrimp should all work well. The same lures and flies that work in the surf will also work well at night. Snook will congregate in passes around the new and full moons to spawn. They will usually be in deep channels in these areas. Bouncing a DOA TerrorEyz or Baitbuster in bridge channels or passes can be an effective technique in these areas. Fishing for reds should also be good in June. Look for them over shallow grass along mangrove shorelines or around oyster bars when the tide is high. You’ll find them in potholes or edges of flats when the tide is low. Top water plugs will work well, especially early in the day. I like to cover water with CAL jigs and shad tails or jerk worms to find them. Fly anglers should score with baitfish fly patterns like my Grassett Flats Minnow. may

Southwest Florida

Mullet, if you’re in the right spot, can also be productive when fish are moving past you but not showing well on the surface. The CAL 4” Shad Tail/Swimbait with a heavy weedless hook is also be a good tarpon bait, especially when sight fishing.

You

(where the light from the bridge cast shadow) snook and tarpon cruise the dark side and strike the bait fish attracted to the light. The brighter the light you have the better chances of catching fish. I recommend medium spinning tackle 15 to 20 test line 40-pound test leader with 3/0 hook for surface fishing and conventional tackle with 30 to 40-pound test line 50-pound test leader and 4/0 hook for the bottom rigs some of the black drum caught can range from 20 to 50 pounds. Black drum are plentiful this month, their favorite bait a half of a fresh blue crab which can be caught along the shoreline or purchased at the local bait and tackle stores. Here is a tip always add a piece of Fishbites Shrimp flavor chunk strip to increase your catch. This product stays on the hook so if you miss the first bite Fishbites Chucks stays on to give you another chance at catching you prey. In Tampa Bay I have found the Gandy and Howard Franklin bridges to be the most productive. The smaller bridges of the Skyway and Fort Desoto area are top snook producers. The main span of the Skyway can produce some large mangrove snapper and grouper during the full moon nights during the summer. Stay cool this summer while fishing on the DARK SIDE. Good fishing and tight lines.

Spanish

mackerel, bluefish or pompano in passes or on deep grass flats this month. I like to drift deep grass flats and cast ahead of my drift with CAL jigs and shad tails or jerk worms or DOA Deadly Combos. Fly anglers should score by drifting and casting ahead of the drift with Ultra Hair Clouser flies tied on long shank hooks on an intermediate sink tip fly line. You’ll need to add a few inches of heavy (40 or 50-pound) fluorocarbon when toothy fish are in the mix. In addition to tarpon look for Spanish mackerel, false albacore, cobia and tripletail in the coastal gulf this month. Although none of them may be thick, I’ve encountered all of them before in June. Keep your eyes open for bird activity or “breaking” fish to find albies and mackerel. Cobia and tripletail may be found around crab trap floats; however I’ve seen cobia swimming with tarpon schools before. Medium spinning tackle and a DOA Shrimp or CAL jig will get the job done for all of them, although your tarpon tackle would also work well for a big cobia. An 8 or 9-weight fly rod with a floating or clear sink tip fly line is adequate to catch everything except a big cobia, in which case your 12-weight tarpon fly tackle will work well. There are lots of options in inshore waters or the coastal gulf this month. If pulling on a 100-pound tarpon isn’t for you, fishing pressure is usually light inshore this month so snook, reds, trout and more should also be good options. Our natural resources are under constant pressure from red tides fueled by residential, agricultural and industrial runoff, toxic spills, freezes, increasing fishing pressure and habitat loss and degradation, please limit your kill, don’t kill your limit!

Mahi Season Is Here We had a great blackfin tuna run last month. The bigger tunas showed up a few weeks late, but they made up for it in both size and numbers. It was not uncommon to catch 5 to 10 Blackfin tunas from 25 to 35 pounds every day. We had a week we caught 50 tunas in one week. To go along with the tunas, there were plenty of sailfish around as well. Now though we have shifted gears and are targeting mahis offshore. If the conditions are right with blue water, north current and a bit of wind, we can still target sailfish and tunas on the edge. Typically, though in the summer, the winds calm down quite a bit, blue water pushes offshore and thusly we target the big schools of mahis offfshore. The last few weeks all the mahis have been under frigate birds and we have done quite well catching a bunch of mahis. Typically, in the beginning of the season, the mahis are small schoolies, but as the summer progresses the mahis grow quickly in size. It is not uncommon for a mahi to gain a few

pounds in less than a month. Most of the bigger gaffers and slammers of 20 to 30 pounds are only a year in age. Besides growing fast, they are also found in large schools. In addition to that they are almost always on the hunt and readily eat cut baits and small live baits. To top it off they are colorful, jump when they are hooked and taste great. Pretty much one of the best fish an offshore angler to target which makes the mahis one of the most targeted fish in South Florida. It is a great fish for both beginners and experienced anglers. It is an awesome trip for the entire family! Another trip we will be doing more of is our summer trips to the Bahamas. Now with Covid restrictions lessening and vaccinated individuals no longer needing testing to go to the Bahamas, it is time to book your trips. We already had a trip to Bimini and have two more planned this month. Our past trip to Bimini was a complete success. We caught our limit of tunas (18). The tunas were yellowfin tunas mixed in with some black fins and some skipjacks. The next day we targeted snappers catching our limit

with Captain Chris Johnson Our focus returns to the reef and wreck areas during July. Love is in the water, as the yellowtail, mangrove and mutton snapper are all in their spawning mode for the next month or two. This causes them to be aggressive eaters. The most consistent action tends to be the 30- to 60-foot depths plus the deeper wrecks. The yellowtails are in the 15- to 18-inch class, and the mangroves weigh anywhere from two pounds all the way up to eight to ten pounds. For the yellowtails and mangroves, large amounts of chum are required. This time of year, we begin using 25-pound blocks in chum nets with large holes, allowing large amounts of chum to escape, which holds their interest. Pair the frozen chum with a slop mixture of YellowtailUp and oats or chum balls made from ChumDrop, and you should have non-stop action. To attract the yellowtails, we drift small cut baits, such as ballyhoo, silversides or shrimp, back in the slick with 15-pound fluoro leaders and small, light wire hooks. The mangroves tend to

Southeast Coast of yellowtail snappers as well as yellow eye snappers. This year is one of the busiest years we have ever had. June is completely booked except for two days at the end of the month. July is more open, with open dates throughout the month. With that being said, now is the time to book your trip while dates are still open. Both my mate and I are fully vaccinated and encourage everyone to do so to help this country get back up and fully running. Let’s take advantage of the calm summer weather and let’s get the whole family out to catch some mahis or have some fun in the Bahamas. For the hardcore groups we can also target big daytime swordfish! Booking at trip has never been easier with our online calendar on the website.

hug the bottom more than the yellowtails. So, it’s imperative your baits are on or near the bottom to get bit by the largest mangs. Chum balls with large chunks of ballyhoo or pinfish will get even the most finicky of the mangroves and muttons to eat. We like to use Owner 2/0 SSW hooks hidden inside the chum balls. We also use live pinfish or ballyhoo fished on a jighead when the fish are more aggressive. This technique may also result in grouper hookups, so be prepared to use slightly heavier tackle than you would for yellowtails, specifically 15-pound main line and 20-pound fluorocarbon leaders. We’re still getting good-size mutton snappers on the wrecks. These fish average 12 to 15 pounds. You’ll need live pinfish or ballyhoo. Pilchards are ideal if you can get them. If you decide to head offshore for dolphin (mahi) and tuna, your best bet is to leave the dock early in the day as the bite quite often shuts down by mid- to late-morning. We typically have plenty of dolphin during July, but they tend to be on the

small side. So, be sure you have a quality measuring stick onboard and remember the legal size is 20 inches to the fork of the tail (not the tip). There has been a lot of Sargasso in the area, so when you find a goodsize grass mat, drive right up to it and throw chunks or put down live baits. You’ll know in short order if there are dolphin under the mat. If not, move on to the next one. You can also break out your electric setup and drop for snowy grouper, tilefish and rosefish. This is especially productive in the middle of the day when the dolphin bite slows down. The two-day Sport Lobster Season (known locally as lobster mini season) is July 28 and 29 this year. We encourage all to join us for great fun with tasty rewards. At the same time, we ask you to exercise caution, as our waters will be congested with boats and snorkelers, and please adhere to the regulations specific to Monroe County.

Vision of perfection.

erfection isn’t a goal at the finish line of production. It is the subtle understanding of what each owner’s personal vision of perfection is. This is the hallmark of Marlow Explorer and Voyager yachts. We work with each owner to achieve perfection in their eyes, not merely build a yacht, but rather a statement of themselves.
