Reefcat Fishing

Reefcat has arrived!
After a long wait, we have finally taken delivery of Reefcat, a brand new 12.0m catamaran based on the Cougar design from Australia.  Powered by twin 315hp Yanmar diesel engines, she has the security of two engines, and the ability to fish 50 plus miles offshore.

Reefcat has been purpose-built for offshore sportfishing in the Algarve waters. A large deck area with "Reelax" fighting chair and outriggers. Electric downriggers by "Walker" in order to target Tuna feeding in mid water. A live bait well, insulated fishwells, refrigerator, and a small galley. Plenty of space on the deck for fighting the fish from a stand up position.

Safety & equipement
We have a full commercial licence for up to 12 passengers and two crew. We are equipped with all required safety gear, liferafts, radio, flares, EPIRB etc. and are subject to an annual inspection of the boat and all safety equipment...

We have a full suite of the latest Raymarine electronics, plus back up systems. A state of the art fishfinder linked to the chartplotter and GPS helps find and stay with the fish.

Fishing tackle is supplied. We have full sets of Shimano tackle from IGFA 20lbs to 80lbs line classes, plus end tackle to suit all likely fishing requirements, whether trolling for marlin, or bottom fishing for bream. Of course, if you have a favourite rod/reel combo that you want to try, or even the latest all titanium/diamond marlin lures, just bring them along and we'll rig them for you!
