Scatterbrain • Los Sueños
Scatterbrain is a premium 52-foot Hatteras based at Los Sueños Marina, designed for anglers who want more space, comfort and offshore capability.
The yacht offers a fully air-conditioned interior, comfortable salon seating, a full galley, private restrooms and sleeping quarters for overnight trips.
The fishing setup includes outriggers, downriggers, a fighting chair and professional offshore equipment. The yacht is also capable of FAD and overnight trips to remote seamounts.
Scatterbrain is designed for anglers who want offshore performance but prefer the comfort and space of a larger yacht.
The yacht provides room to move around, shaded deck areas and an air-conditioned interior where guests can relax between bites or during the offshore run.
Scatterbrain combines luxury accommodations with serious tournament-style fishing equipment.
The larger interior is one of Scatterbrain’s biggest advantages compared with smaller Los Sueños boats.
The air-conditioned salon gives guests a comfortable place to relax, while the full galley, private restrooms and sleeping quarters make the yacht capable of much longer fishing trips.
That additional space is especially valuable for families, groups of friends and anglers planning overnight or multi-day FAD trips.
Scatterbrain is capable of longer-range fishing, including overnight and multi-day trips to Costa Rica’s offshore FADs and seamounts.
These trips give serious marlin anglers the opportunity to fish remote blue-water areas and spend substantially more time on productive offshore grounds.
Overnight trips generally require custom planning because timing, destination and trip length vary.
Scatterbrain is primarily designed for blue-water sportfishing from Los Sueños.
One of the primary trophy targets for longer offshore trips.
A signature Los Sueños billfish target.
Powerful pelagic fish often found around bait and dolphin schools.
Colorful, aggressive and excellent table fare.
One of the fastest predators in the Pacific.
Specialized overnight and multi-day fishing for anglers focused on marlin.
The fishing plan can change depending on current offshore activity.
Billfish are targeted using responsible sportfishing practices.
Scatterbrain offers both, but the pricing makes the Full Day particularly attractive.
Best for groups that specifically need a shorter day or have limited time.
The Full Day is the best use of a yacht like Scatterbrain when sailfish, marlin, yellowfin tuna or mahi-mahi are the goal.
The yacht’s size and accommodations allow trips that many smaller boats cannot comfortably offer.
Sailfish, marlin, yellowfin tuna and mahi-mahi from Los Sueños Marina.
Travel to remote offshore seamounts and fish prime marlin grounds at sunrise and sunset.
Extended trips for serious billfish anglers who want maximum time in remote blue water.
Scatterbrain is based at Los Sueños Marina in Playa Herradura on Costa Rica’s Central Pacific coast.
Los Sueños provides direct access to offshore waters for sailfish, marlin, yellowfin tuna and mahi-mahi, while its infrastructure makes it a convenient departure point for larger yachts and extended trips.
The location is especially convenient for guests staying in Los Sueños, Herradura, Jaco and Playa Hermosa.
Explore Los Sueños FishingYou want serious offshore fishing but prefer the space and comfort of a larger luxury sportfisher.
Your group wants a simple lower-cost fishing trip and does not need the interior accommodations, overnight capability or space of a 52ft yacht.
For a short inshore fishing trip, a smaller center console would usually make more sense.
