All winter long our Queen Charlotte Islands crew has been working to make MV Charlotte Princess and MV Marabell guests' trips even better.
MV Marabell boats get a major refit
T-Rev, Fishmaster on the MV Marabell, has been working hard on the ship's fleet of Boston Whalers over the winter.
Here's a quick look at the updates
- We have added a dark grey non-skid paint throughout the floor.
- The rest of the boat has been painted white with new decals.
- To create more room within the boat, we moved the new Yamaha gas cans forward under the each of the seats.
- We designed a new stainless steel bracket to hold the railings and added a hook to hold the net in place on the port side.
- We moved the marine radio to face the driver. It will be flush mounted in the side of the dry box and have a plexi glass roof over it.
- We rewired the entire boat.
- We changed the seat base system (no more wobbly seats!).
- We will have all new seat cushions.
- We added an additional rod holder up forward to accommodate the hali rods and an extra salmon rod.
In addition to being more asthetically pleasing, all of these changes will make the boats much more functional for our guests and we are very excited to hear what you think.
MV Charlotte Princess
Guests on the MV Charlotte Princess will notice the awesome new Lowrance X67c colour sounders. We have also purchased more halibut reels and changed our reel repair supplier, so we are expecting improved performance out of our equipment.
Both resorts
We have changed our halibut line to Jinkai, which is a commercial line that is stronger than the line we used last season, but is thinner in diameter, which equals more line on the reel.
Fishing season is almost here!
