Hello I’m captain Brian
I have a few different ways you can book a trip with me.
-
Is a sightseeing tour of the shore line off the coast of Palos Verdes Peninsula where there is a possibility of seeing sea lions, seals, otters, and kelp beds. And then a short cruise about 10 miles offshore to hopefully spot dolphins and the possibility of whales. All in a two hour cruise. The price will be 100.00 per person with a 4 person minimum an 6 person maximum. I know you’re thinking that sounds expensive. But you’ll be on a private performance pleasure Boat with just your family or friends. All Charters below are plus fuel at 4.00 dollars a gallon. The boat holds 170 gallons. You will only pay for what is used.
-
You can Charter the boat. At 1000.00 for 4 hours or 1800.00 for 8 hours with up to 6 people maximum. With a maximum offshore range of up to 40 miles. And the possibilities are limited to your imagination!
-
You Can Charter for multiple days. At 1800.00 the first day 1500.00 the second day and 1200.00 the third day.
-
You can charter for more than 3 days. I am willing to do charters in Lake Havasu, Arizona and Lake Mojave Nevada. Call me and we can discuss what you want to do.
