2025 Recap & BIG Excitement Ahead for 2026!
Happy Holidays, everyone! As we wrap up an unforgettable 2025 season, I can’t help but feel the buzz of excitement building for 2026. This past year brought amazing fishing, returning friends, new faces, and plenty of stories—and what’s coming next is even bigger.
A Look Back at an Incredible 2025
What a season! Our striped bass fishing was on fire from late May straight through mid-September. No real slow periods—just steady, exciting action day after day. If the fish were biting, we were there, and many of you came back for more than one trip. We can’t thank you enough for your continued support.

Bluefin tuna kept us on our toes this year! While Provincetown stayed unusually quiet, the waters east of Chatham and south of the Islands lit up with fantastic tuna action. We burned a little more fuel chasing them, but every extra mile was worth it. The unexpected recreational tuna shutdown on August 12th definitely threw us a curveball—something we’ve never seen before—but we adapted and kept the season rolling. Here’s hoping 2026 keeps things smooth and predictable!

Announcing Our BIG 2026 Upgrade
This is the part where the excitement really kicks in—we’re fishing a brand-new, bigger, faster boat for 2026!
Introducing our 32′ Cape Horn powered by twin 350 HP Suzuki engines. This beauty is built for adventure and designed to elevate your entire experience on the water. Better fishability, improved comfort, more versatility in challenging weather, and technology upgrades across the board.

Subtitle for This Block
Our Boston Whaler served us loyally since 1998, and after more than 25 years, she’s ready for her next chapter. But we are ready to level up—and we can’t wait for you to feel the difference the moment we leave the dock.
