2010 Season!
Captain Satch and
Sons...
is very proud to announce the newest
addition to our Family
Friendly Fleet !
The
F/V "Gath IV"
3rd
generation Hehir Family (MA) aboard the new boat.They have enjoyed
fishing with us aboard the ol Gath before these kids were born.
The "Gath IV "
is a newly retrofitted, pristine
conditioned, USCG
inspected vessel certified to carry a maximum of 12 passengers. She will provide
many new options for our guest's family fishing adventures.
My dream is that she will continue to keep fishing personable and
affordable for so many of our returning families can continue to enjoy
that special day with
us each season.
Our experienced crew
will continue to provide the caring, professional, personal service
you've come to expect on the "Gath III and the India Marie".
My oldest son,Captain Whit is the primary captain aboard the Gath IV. 2010 will mark his 9th season
operating our families vessels. He holds 50 Ton USCG Masters
license,a Maine Masters tidewater guides license, his 1st class Maine
lobster
license and a Masters of Education in counseling from Plymouth Sate
University to boot.
So many families truly enjoy a day aboard with Captain Whit, he really
cares and does his upmost to provide your children with a great
experience and very often the largest fish of their lives as well!
**********************************************************
Inshore Fishing: The "Gath IV" will depart daily
and continue to offer our most popular four and six hour fishing trips
for stripers, blues and mackerel. A maximum of 10 guests will fish with
plenty of tangle free room and in the added comfort and convenience of
a
larger
U.S. Coast Guard inspected vessel.
We offer both four and six hour "open boat" inshore trips for
stripers and blues every day during
the busy summer season.
Offshore Fishing: "The
Gath IV " also has the
capacity to join the "India Marie" to take guests offshore fishing for cod,
haddock, pollock and shark. This summer we will offer both
"family
oriented" half- day (6 Hour) deep sea fishing trips and full day
(8 hr) deep sea fishing charters.
I
expect these trips will be a big hit and a lot of fun for the kids.
