The Stormy Petrel II is 61' long overall and she was built in Kennebunk, Maine by Dwight Raymond in 1996. She has a USCG Inspection for 44 passengers up to 100 miles offshore from Cape May, NJ to Cape Lookout, NC. We have all of the necessary safety equipment and undergo annual inspections by the Coast Guard. Her power comes from two Detroit Diesels (671 turbos - about 425 hp each) with top speed
of about 20 knots. Our engines were recently overhauled after many years of trouble free operation. Unlike most charter boats, our boat has a full walk-around deck, and our bathrooms (two) are at deck level with household toilets. There is an incredible amount of deck space, especially up front, so in addition to fishing, she is ideal for cruises and wildlife viewing! Her stability while drifting in big seas is exceptional, such that we are able to operate safely and comfortably in conditions which would be miserable on most other boats.
