re: Tuna fishing trip - Who Does OB recommend?

This is Lance Walker with fish commander charters I runs around 150 trips a year. In the last 10 years his boat has broke down 2 times offshore. Both times it was a lower unit. The boat has a spare lower unit at the camp so that it can be changed out that night and make sure the clients don't miss out on there trip the next day. The boat gets new engines every 3 years. It gets maintained every 100 hours. I apologize that you missed out on part of your trip if that was the case. It cost thousands of dollars a year maintaining a boat and most guides do everything thing they can to make sure the boat is ready because they don't make money sitting at the dock. I spend countless hours working on the boat sometimes not finishing until minutes before the trip. My boat was on the Yamaha commercial for having the best maintained engines in the gulf. Again I work extremely hard both on and off the boat to make sure everyone has a trip of a lifetime if that was not the case again I apologize feel free to contact me I would be happy to make it up to you.
