Mako Charter’s slogan is “Staying on top of it!”. That means many different things, all focused on one objective: making your day out with us safe, comfortable and exciting.

Designing Your Day

“Staying on top of it!” Over the past 30 years of running a charter boat, I have learned what it takes to make your day out on the water a treasured memory for you, your family and/or your colleagues. While nobody can control what the fish do on a given day, we are happy to discuss all of your fishing options with you before the day starts and tailor your day to your wishes.
Want to try to catch that 1,000 pound Blue Marlin you have always dreamed about? We will focus the day on that. Want to keep your clients busy catching fish and watching the aquarium off the back of the boat? We can do that too.

The Crew

“Staying on top of it!” You will spend your day with a crew that is unmatched in experience and professionalism. Wiring that big fish is really important…so is making you feel at home on the boat. We understand that there is more to a successful charter than having baits and rigs ready. We are ready to host you and your guests and make your day a complete success.

The Boat

“Staying on top of it!” We will take you out in the finest charter boat available in Bermuda. MAKO is a 56 foot Carolina Sportfisherman built by Sunny Briggs in 2009. She is powered by twin 1,000 horsepower CATs which produce a top speed of 40 knots. With a cruise of 30 knots, once we clear the reef, we only have a 20 minute run before lines go in and we start fishing.
MAKO is purpose built for Bermuda fishing using all of my experience in the design. While a smaller boat would be more economical, I have found that my customers enjoy their day more when they can relax in the ride that a big Carolina boat provides. Obviously, the fact that the boat is brand new means that all equipment is in tip top shape your safety or fishing time will not be compromised on MAKO.
In order to ensure that my customers can take advantage of every fishing option, we have Tuna Tubes for live baiting ½ pound tinker mackerel, large live well to hold plenty of Ocean Robins for live baiting, a chumming station for Tuna fishing, and for the way home, a comfortable salon with comfortable seating for six.

The Tackle

“Staying on top of it!” We will always provide you with the best tackle available for the kind of fishing we are doing. We replace the tackle each year so you are guaranteed to have top notch equipment.
