Offshore Tuna Trip

Went offshore on the 25' Grady White looking for the elusive bluefin tuna the other day. Seas were flat calm and the sun was shining bright.

Timed the trip to fish the afternoon slack tide. Upon arriving at the "spot", we were treated with an incredible whale show, and much to our surprise...only a couple of other boats. So, we threw in our two lines and began to troll.

To be continued.....

Hazy, hot and HUMID! Maui Jim spotted?

This is the weather that I wait for all year long. I love being out in the hot sun...especially if I am on a boat. Can you think of a better way to cool off than aboard a Navigator Club boat?

Speaking of being cool, the Maui Jim sunglasses have been ordered and are expected to be in soon. By this time next week, a bunch of Navigator Club members will be sporting, the latest Maui Jim shades.

Back from the Vineyard, new boat?

Returned from the Vineyard this afternoon with the 60'. Had a fun and exciting time. Being the captain of such a fine vessel, definitely has me spoiled. However, let's just say that I much rather prefer to be on the water during a hurricane than riding a moped from Oak Bluffs to Edgartown.

This week is another busy one. Have a new member training session tomorrow at noon and then I will be spending time looking at a new boat for the club.

Off to get some ZZZZZ'sssssss,

Another beautiful weekend on the water

Beautiful weekend on the water. Ran the 60' down to Provincetown and back on Saturday and then to Newburyport and back on Sunday. I may be running a boat up from New York Harbor next week and am also planning another trip down to Florida in late September.

The last few weeks down at the club have been extremely busy. Several new members have signed up and we have been spending a lot of time with them doing on-the-water training. In fact, we have a training session today at 11:00 am.

Fundraiser, good times, Deadliest Catch

Took a ride up to the Gloucester House the other night to attend this years Little League Fundraiser. Besides the $15 door charge, numerous items were auctioned off including prints, clothing and memorabilia. There was also a $500 50/50 raffle. All proceeds were donated to the Gloucester Little League.

At this years, event...we had the opportunity to meet Capt. Andy Hillstrand, Capt. Johnathan Hillstrand and deckhand, Josh Harris. I must admit that these guys are really down to earth...which is a blessing in this day and age. They were swamped with groupies...but since a friend is running the pr for the event, we had an opportunity to meet the gang and get a photo op.

Yesterday, I spent the day driving around looking at boats. We are getting ready to add a third boat and I wanted to take a look and see what is available so that when the time comes, we can move quickly.
