Fishing for the big ones on the John Jack

Want to fish?  Want to learn how to fish?  Looking for a boat to take your group out for a day of fun on the ocean?  The John Jack has the answers - give me a call.  We have had several successful charters this season, both in-shore and off-shore.  The John Jack has a complete galley and sleeps 8, so we're able to do overnight trips to the Canyon where "the big fish" school.

Give me a call and let me fill you in on the details.

3 Days of Fun on the John Jack

We are sailing, we are sailing, we are sailing. The boat is singing the song as it looks at the schedule for the weekend. We start Friday night and our 1st night dive of the season. We always have room, so give me a call. The John Jack, equipped with enough lights to give you a suntan when you're underwater, makes for a great night time dive platform. On Saturday, we sail with ScubaVenture to the Pinta. The Pinta is a favorite of mine so I'm looking forward to getting a dive in. (Yes dive boat Captains know how to dive). Sunday brings Blue Water Divers and Elite Divers on board for the first time this season on the Delaware, a shallow in-shore wreck. We still have room for more divers, so call either shop to reserve your spot.  I'll be jumping in again, looking to bag a few lobsters or maybe dig for that elusive special artifact that might be hidden just under that pile of sand. Give me a call and let's have a ball. Come dive the John Jack. See what all the talk is about. A great boat with one of the most highly rated crew diving anywhere.

The John Jack goes Fishing

With our very first fishing charter successfully completed, the John Jack has discovered a new way to serve our family and friends who enjoy the ocean as much as we do.

The John Jack was built to be at sea. Like most boats, the John Jack does not rest easy at the dock. It seems to pull on its mooring lines in the slip as if to say, "Get me out of here." Whenever I am at the marina tending to the many projects that keep the John Jack  in service, the boat speaks to me.  Always the same mantra, "the ocean, the ocean, I must be on the ocean."  True, it's fanciful that a boat could tug on its lines, have a soul, or commune with the captain.  That said, the John Jack was built to be at sea.

These feelings guided my decision to introduce fishing to the John Jack menu of activities. Beginning in mid-June, the John Jack will be offering fishing charters. Come one, come all, and enjoy the amenities of the John Jack while you share a day on the ocean with friends.

The John Jack is a one of a kind vessel that offers the very best in diving, fishing, dinner cruises, sightseeing, and parties.  Join the John Jack family for a day on the ocean, and see if the boat speaks to you.
