Up close and personal at Mavrick’s: A different kind of charter trip!
January 26, 2008
The Queen of Hearts, one of the best party boats fishing the greater San Francisco Bay area, has been offering a pretty cool new type of charter lately — Maverick’s Surf Contest viewing trips.
And man, does Capt. Bob (who’s a great guy and fisherman, by the way) get in there close to the action. Apparently, there’s a way that a super expert sea skipper can get a boat close to the break without actually getting into it. Bob can get you into position that you can look straight down the tube of a 30 footer and see the surfers in there.
Heck, he says you’ll even feel the push of air when the wave closes out.
Sounds cool and not for the faint of heart or the weak of stomach (me). Check out their link above for schedules and rates.





In a previous life. Let me at ‘em. Gnarly dude!!!!!
