PRIVATE CHARTER FOR TWO PERSONS
 

"HANDS ON TRAINING"

Let's Talk Trawlers!

Our Concept: Where education becomes a vacation

  • We keep it simple. We will present information on the fundamentals of trawlers in a relaxed atmosphere, on board, as we cruise. This is your chance to take charge of the helm and receive practical experience. This is a hands-on clinic for trawler lovers, or simply those interested in learning more about trawlers.

  • By the time your trip is over, you will know as much about trawlers as we do. Remember, advanced knowledge is a buyer's best friend.  Over the past 4 years we have had many clients who completed our hands on training course and come away with a completely different outlook on how to archive their trawler dreams. They know what trawler to look for, how to find it and buy it right. Now they can fulfill their trawler dreams with confidence and skill.

Now offered only by Trawler School Charters at an affordable price

Your Hosts Captain Bob Hamilton and Captain Fred Studwell.
Captain Bob has sold hundreds of trawlers in the past and was the General Manager of Trawler Sales of South Florida, one of the largest trawler brokerages in North America. Captain Bob & Fred are also the co-author's of The ABC's of Trawlers (A Trawler Buyer's Ccomplete Guide). The ABC's of Trawlers is very popular for people looking for more information on trawlers. It is widely circulated in the Trawler community. We received hundreds of calls, e-mails and letters thanking us for introducing this wonderful source of basic trawler information. One of the most frequently asked and most daunting questions addressed to us throughout the years is: "Where can I charter a trawler before I buy one?" Or, "Where can I learn hands-on-only trawler training?"

 

Captain Bob & Captain Fred had an idea to introduce their concept and take it to the next level: keep it fun, educational, and exciting! You're on a private chartered vacation, complete with a hands on trawler school, during which you will receive hands-on practical experience and knowledge about buying trawlers, while enjoying all the comforts of a live aboard trawler vacation (try before you buy).

 

You and your guest will be pleasantly surprised with the Miami Mermaid 40 ft Sundeck trawler. With an extra large layout, it is comparable to a 44-46ft vessel with complete privacy and separate front and aft staterooms. You will occupy the Master Stateroom with private, ensuite head and your own separate shower room. You will feel right at home aboard the Miami Mermaid.
