Cape Cod Sportfishing Charters
Striped Bass, Blue fin tuna, sharks, blue fish, scup “porgy”, black sea bass and fluke are our specialty. We fish the waters and rips of Cape Cod, Nantucket Sound, Nantucket Shoals, Monomoy Shoals, east of Chatham Massachusetts and south of Martha’s Vineyard. The Magellan, a 35 ft Duffy, is very fast, roomy, seaworthy and ultra customized for fishing these waters. She has a state of the art common rail 490 hp Cummins diesel engine. This means no obnoxious engine fumes. Located at Saquatucket Harbor in Harwich Port Massachusetts, we are closest to the heart of the summer fisheries and with our superior speed you spend more time fishing and less time getting there. Whether we are fishing for Black sea bass, porgies, stripers, sharks or giant blue fin tuna, our gear is best matched for the catch.
Captain Len Greiner and Captian Jason Pillsbury have been running charters for 20+ years. Their knowledge, experience and sense of humor will insure you to have a safe, productive and enjoyable trip.
Sea Duck Hunting Parties
Eiders are our specialty.
You may see and may bag any of the following on an Eider hunt: Old Squawl, White Wing Scooter, Surf Scooter, Black Scooter, King Eider, Black Duck, Bufflehead, Mergansers, Canada Geese, Brant, Scaulp and Golden Eye.
Come get up close and personal with the seals of Monomoy Island off the coast of Chatham, Cape Cod. Numbered in the thousands, the seals are hard to miss. Seal watching is always nice in the summer weather, but winter is when the seals give birth to their young and you get the chance to see them close up. Our boat is heated, roomy and comfortable.

Our goal is to provide an extremely safe and fun day for our customers. Our captains and mates are very courteous, friendly, safe and very fishy.
If you have ever had a bad experience on other charter boats before you are in for a treat with us because the only jerk you are going to find on board is going to be on the end of one of our rods. Harwich Port offers some of best fishing in the world. We fish Nantucket Sound, in the tide rips of Nantucket Shoals and Monomoy Shoals, and further east and south for tuna and sharks. Our mates and captains are happy to fillet your catch.
