I rate F/V (fishing vessel) Nor'easter Deep Sea Fishing three out of five stars. It's OK…read more Pros: 1. It's a good deal. Our group of eight paid $805.60 total or $100.70 per person. This amount was prepaid online with a card. We tipped the mate, Steve, $200 total or $25 per person = 25% tip. 15% was the suggested tip posted on the sign on the boat. We tipped in cash. Remember to bring enough cash to tip the mate. We were told he worked separately from the F/V Nor'easter Deep Sea Fishing business. The boat left around 6:45am and we were back around 4:15pm. So, we were gone for about 9.5 hours, longer than expected. The expected time away was 8 hours: 2-hour boat ride out, 4 hours of fishing, and 2-hour boat ride in. Our boat ride out was roughly 2 hours. We were told we were going 36 miles out. Then, we changed fishing spots 2-3 times. I think we went farther out because our trip back in was longer, like 2.5 to 2.75 hours in. On top of that, there was a refueling stop on the way back. Hence the 9.5 hours being away. Real fishing time was probably still around 4 hours, maybe 4.5. I mention all that above because for $125.70 per person, we could catch and keep all the allowable fish we wanted. And every fish was nicely fileted and bagged by Steve for us to take home and eat. Our group caught more fish than we could eat. Therefore, unfortunately, we had to throw some of our cooked fish away. It was good, fresh fish too. We had various whiting - haddock and pollock - and cusk. We had to throw cod and smaller fish back. Dogfish sharks were kept. 2. As mentioned above, Steve fileted and bagged all the fish we could catch. And we caught quite a bit (this can be considered another pro). 3. Captain Mike and mate Steve were good at taking pictures of people with their catches. All pictures taken with Mike's phone were posted on the F/V Nor'easter Facebook page before we docked back in Kennebunk: https://www.facebook.com/noreasterfishing. Cons: 1. Captain Mike wasn't nice to us from the start. I get people being a certain way and there are different types of culture. Mike greeted us in the parking lot by telling us, "You're late" and to "Stop lollygagging." He also said words to the effect of, "Our entire boat is late because of you." A family showed up behind us and we overhead Mike say the same brusk things to them. He really set the tone for great customer service off the bat. He wasn't having any BS. One or two of the guys in our group loved it because they're kind of like Mike too. We like to joke that we're a bunch of a**holes. But seriously, if you don't like being treated like this, book your fishing trip elsewhere. This behavior is consistent with what I read for F/V Nor'easter Deep Sea Fishing on Google Reviews. For the record, we did as the instructions said and showed up on time. The instructions said to show up before 6:30pm. When Mike was talking to us, my phone said 6:29am, so we were on time. We weren't late. Again, I expected this kind of treatment after reading the Google Reviews. I considered it Northeast hospitality. 2. The boat was smaller and not as nice as several in our group expected. Again, I read reviews and looked at pictures so I had a better idea of what to expect. You can only expect so much out of a boat for an all-day fishing trip that costs only $100 per person (before tip). I counted about 20 customers. Plus captain Mike, mate Steve, and a few of their friends/associates, the boat was full and snug. All seating was uncovered bench seating. So, the trip can tire you out as the seating is not comfortable, provides no back support, and you're constantly keeping your balance. Unless of course you're someone who's seasoned to the seas, which most people aren't. We're landlubbers. The stern is where most of the fishing took place. However, about five folks went up and fished from the bow (front). They had to so there was enough room on the stern (back). The reason why is because Steve blocked most of the port side of the stern with buckets (port is left if facing bow). The reason why most of the port side was blocked was because the currents caused fishing lines to flow under the boat. A couple times, lines/hooks from people fishing on the port side would get stuck with lines/hooks from people fishing on the starboard side (starboard is right if facing bow). All of this is to say the boat was crowded, especially when fishing. 3. There was only one toilet, the stall was tiny, the toilet paper was damp and thin, and the flush was waterless -- we had to pump our waste down the toilet hole with up-down action. Oh yeah, and there wasn't soap and water, so if you're someone who likes washing their hands after using the bathroom/using a shared bathroom with strangers, you should bring your own hand wipes. I advise against going number two on the boat if you can help it. 4. Captain Mike ate our cookies without asking us. He had his hand in our cookie box in the wheelhouse.
