Capt Dave ( Dave Arlit ) lost his battle with cancer early this morning. Dave was the guy, regardless of weather, always perched up on the bowsprit. If you have taken a few trips with us, I’m sure you probably met him. I can’t count the times in a season, when someone calling for reservations, would say, “ put me in the bow next to Dave “ Dave started fishing with us about 26-27 years ago when we were sailing out of Newburyport, and we’ve been great friends since. There have been a lot of crew mates come and gone in those years, but I knew come spring, Dave would be back in the bow and helping navigate the Bird. Tight lines bud, we’ll miss you dearly.

Pretty busy with the engine repower, lots of work not just in the engine room , but all the gear below the boat has to be changed also. Becky has posted the 2025 schedule on the trip schedule page, and is starting to take calls for the upcoming season. Hope you’re all awesome.

Waiting on the crane to come and take the old engines out. Along with everyone else, I won’t miss the noise, but they have been extremely reliable for the past 25 years of service. It hasn’t rained in a couple of weeks, until I cut a hole in the roof yesterday, go figure
