Pro captain & anglers
— The Boat —

A real sportfisher, built for blue water.

Bertram doesn't make beach toys. The 70 is a serious offshore platform with the range, fuel capacity, and tower for the kind of fishing the deep waters off San Juan demand. You'll feel the difference the second you clear the inlet — bigger seas, longer runs, and the room to fight a fish the way it's meant to be fought.

We fish a trolling spread — outriggers set, lures and rigged baits trailing behind the boat — covering deep water until the reels start screaming. Onboard you've got a captain with 30+ years on these waters and a crew of experienced anglers who'll set you up, talk you through every strike, and put you on fish.

FAQ

Where do we depart from?
San Juan, Puerto Rico. We'll send you the exact marina and slip number once your charter is confirmed. We can also arrange transportation from your hotel.
Do I need a fishing license?
No license required for guests fishing on a licensed charter boat in PR waters. We've got you covered.
Will I get seasick?
The Bertram 70 is a heavy, stable boat — way more comfortable than a small center console offshore. If you're prone to motion sickness, take Bonine or Dramamine the night before and the morning of. Avoid alcohol the night before.
What should I bring?
Sunscreen, polarized sunglasses, a hat, soft-soled shoes (no black soles), and a light long-sleeve shirt for sun protection. Everything else — rods, bait, ice, drinks — is on the boat.
Can we keep the fish?
Absolutely — mahi, wahoo, and tuna are yours to take home. We'll clean and bag them at the dock. Marlin and sailfish are tag-and-release per international conservation standards.
What if the weather is bad?
Captain's call. If conditions are unsafe we'll reschedule or refund — no questions asked. Full refund with 48+ hours notice for cancellation; 30% deposit confirms your booking.
Can kids come?
Yes — kids are welcome. For very young children we'd suggest the half-day so the trip stays fun. Life jackets in their size are aboard.
Do you offer multi-day packages?
Yes — message us on WhatsApp and we'll put together a multi-day program around your dates and target species.
