THE HOST

Just look at this beauty. She’s over 50 feet long with almost 20 feet of beam. On her, there’s more than enough room to relax on one of her many outside decks. Or, if the heat’s getting you down, come on inside our air conditioned dining room and bar. Relax in air conditioned comfort and sleep soundly. The floors are jungle hardwood in all directions.

The Host can sleep far more than our 8 guest limit, but we are committed to small, customized groups to allow you the utmost privacy – and unlimited, unrestricted fishing, of course. When you return home from your days on the flats and want to fish some more, guess what, we’ll take you out for more fishing until you say, “Bob, I’m begging you… Take me back to the Motherboat.”

And when you’re done fishing, it’s all about the service. You’re gonna love our food. And our bar… well… we know you’ll be fine with that.

The Host is no ordinary motherboat. She is not claustrophobic. There’s no mold (sadly, with some outfitters, that can be a problem). She is, simply, the queen of all motherboats. She’s a newly designed displacement trawler that slips through the water like a Bone. She’s so far from one of those old stinkpots that bounce up and down on every wave that you’ll feel like crying for your friends back home when they show you pictures of THEIR trip. And while you’re sleeping away in your air-conditioned berth, we’ll be moving closer and closer to that next great flat. And since we’re bringing you to the flat, you can wake up in peace, enjoy a breakfast and step into your guide boat right from The Host’s ample deck.

After that,

THE ADVANTAGES OF A MOTHERBOAT

While some things are obvious (mobility, variety and the ability to reach the most favorable flats based on prevailing conditions) there are some other key factors that we can offer you that our competitors can’t.

Let’s take a look at just a couple of examples…

We’ve mentioned this a number of times before, but you’ll know just how important it is on your first morning with us. While you sleep the motherboat brings you on a magic carpet ride to your own, personal flat. You’ll wake up and enjoy breakfast looking out onto an untouched heaven. Don’t think of The Host so much as a fishing boat, she’s a floating lodge that materializes at the end of each day’s fishing to take you aboard and fill you with food and drink as you prepare for the next day and talk about the amazing one you just experienced.

We give you exclusive access. You will be on flats no lodge can reach and we all know that the sense of solitude in nature is why we got into this racket in the first place. Plus, if you get too hot in the middle of the day we can bring you back to the Host for a relaxing, cool lunch then back out to the flats to fish, all relaxed and cooled off.

Apres-fishing fishing. After a day on the flats, when you return to The Host and still want to fish, just let us know and as long as we’ve go the light, you’ll get on another boat with Bob and a guide or two and head out for some more action. Trust us, you’ll be able to fish to you heart’s content.

Apres-fishing fishing fishing: After dinner you can go up on one of The Host’s many decks, take a look around and if you see a fish, grab a rod and you know what to do. Your rods will be on a rack for easy access. We’ve seen Permit under the boat and cast to them with success. Same with Jacks, Cuda and a variety of fish to give you that “one last cast” before you rack it for the night.
