Fish from Quepos aboard a practical 30-foot sportfisher that gives small groups an affordable way to target sailfish, tuna, mahi-mahi, roosterfish, snapper and more.
Cowboy Sportfishing is a 30-foot Bertram-style fishing boat serving the Quepos and Marina Pez Vela area. It is designed for anglers who want a productive private charter without moving into the price range of the larger sportfishing yachts.
The boat can fish offshore for sailfish, yellowfin tuna, mahi-mahi, wahoo and occasional marlin, while also working the inshore coastline for roosterfish, snapper, grouper, jacks and mackerel.
Cowboy focuses on the equipment anglers actually need for a productive inshore or offshore trip.
Cowboy’s strongest advantage is simple: it offers a real sportfishing layout and both offshore and inshore capability at a lower price than the larger cabin boats.
For a couple, family or small group that wants to focus on the fishing rather than luxury accommodations, this can be a very practical choice.
Offshore trips head toward deeper blue water for sailfish, tuna, mahi-mahi, wahoo and possible marlin.
Inshore trips stay closer to the coastline and can target roosterfish, snapper, grouper, jacks and mackerel with live bait and lighter tackle.
