About the St. Pete

Before you book your trip, we’re sure that there are things you’ll want to know about the fishing vessel St. Pete. The boat is a 23′ Parker Sport Cabin equipped with a 250 H.P. Yamaha four-stroke engine named after St. Peter the Fisherman. We outfitted the boat with one goal in mind: fishing! We added personal features to make our fishing aboard St. Pete a wonderful and memorable experience, and now we’re ready to share that experience with you.

  • The mate or the captain will clean all of your fish, so call home and tell them; Dinner is ready!

Why is the boat named St. Pete?

St. Peter, the fisherman, is the patron saint of the boat. That’s why the boat is called St. Pete. It has absolutely nothing to do with St. Pete, Florida. We’re all about Cape Cod, and if St. Peter can provide us with a little divine intervention and protection, then all the better! St. Peter, the patron saint of fishermen.
