| Offshore adventures got a new ride
The Crew had a successful trip on the new ship which proved to have all the conveniences the Crew was looking for. It holds over 60,000 gallons of fuel and runs on four generators and three engines. The crane that lifts 7,000 lbs and the lift that carries 70,000 lbs is just enough for the Crew to load and unload the skiffs as well as the 45 foot Cabo. It also carries 8,000 gallons of fresh water which is more than enough for the Crew to live comfortably. After getting situated on the new ship, the guys caught some albacore tuna and Brett speared 4 yellowtail in the kelp beds. On the way back to Ensenada, the Crew got in on a giant Humboldt squid bite which were pulled over the side of the ship in anticipation of a calamari meal. Names for the new ship have been thrown around but nothing has stuck yet. Destinations that will be visited on the 5-year trip were also discussed. Check back soon for more details.

Great use of a Crab boat with the new regs
That Cabo weighs a lot less than the pots that used to occupy that space

Ran into Brett a few weeks ago, and he descibed the new ride. I shook my head like I knew what he was talking about, but really I had no idea!! All I can say is "OMG". These guys are the winners (most toys). Go get `em, Brett, Chris, and crew!!!
PS to Brett--- Let`s fish! Talk to Nick!!

One of the complaints they had with their Elliot was the cramped living quarters due to the camera crew on board. Can't wait to check out the new season with this beast. It'll be cool to see Brett doing his thing with 45 foot Cabo as compared to the previous boat.

Why would 8000 gallon water capacity be a selling point? Must be a fish hold or something.

Saw them pulling into Punta Mita this past Sat. What a set up! That would be killer, a mothership like that with a Cabo to cruise in.
