A divorce, then the economic fiasco has put a serious dent in my offshore activities. I am pretty hardcore in the fact, that I have taken multi day trips in a small boat. I am a vet, and meticulously plan for the worst. A close family friend has bought a big sport fisher and never uses his 25' Wellcraft. It has 150 merc saltwater series. One with a very new power head. It is an older boat, but is very functional.
This is what I can offer, split the boat 70/30, then probably do a few upgrades and rig boat for battle. Rigging and repairs 50/50. I can store, maintain, and repair as needed. Will build covered storage in La Ward which is between port Lavaca and Palacios. Boat will be 45 mi to either Poc, or Matagorda. 90 mi to port aransas.
I have the time, know how, experience, and desire. Looking for someone that is new to sport but loves the offshore challenge, and wants to learn. I will be down this weekend and will take some pics of it.
If there is ever a time for a person that wants to get into offshore fishing without adding a mortgage payment, this is your shot. Initial cash will probably be around 10,000 to 12,000. This covers boat/motor, trailer, update electronics, additional fuel capability, boat us insurance/towing, and some offshore rigging plus additional safety gear. I carry props, fuel filters, small generator, ditch bag, life raft, spare bilge/emergency pump, waterproof handheld VHF with extra battery's, handheld gps, and emergency beacons.
My ideal trip heads out early and hits some snapper, then out stopping at various rigs/wrecks. Try to pickup some Dolphin or wahoo, and then continue out to 850+ for some tile. Overnight rig for swords, and toy with schooling tuna. At dawn put out a spread and do some sport bill fishing. Then settle in for a long ride back looking for floating debris, or weed lines. Pick up the rest of our state snapper limits and head in. Once in, clean the fish and then I will handle the boat.
If this interests you, I would be more than willing to negotiate. I really love going early week when weather is right, but schedule is tough with new job. Usually stuck to weekends. On other way I would help ease trip expenses is to take customers and expense out costs, or people that will pay their way to go. Average fuel for said trip is probably 5 to 6 hundred alone.
