 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This was our fourth year fishing with Captain Sam on Nantucket Shoals and every year he puts us on the fish!! Sam’s knowledge of the fishing grounds is like no other!! We fished with other charter captains, before we met Captain Sam , but they did not fulfill our expectations!!  My buddies and I are already scheduled to fish with Captain Sam next year !! Can’t wait it’s my favorite fishing trip of the year!!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I booked an amazing sunset cruise for my birthday with Captain Sam. We had a combination of adults and kids and went out for a beautiful cruise around Monomy island. Captain Sam was very knowledgeable and showed us various landmarks throughout. The boat was amazing - everything looked brand new and there were various areas of the boat for us to hang out in. In particular I loved the fly bridge which had incredible views of the sunset and water. Captain Sam was awesome and played great tunes. I will definitely be booking again in the future for my next girls trip or for a special night with the family. The perfect cape experience!
