Drum
The55 Hooked Up
II
is one of the
newest, most
deluxe, fastest
and comfortable
charter boats on
the East
Coast.
Carolina custom
hulls are known
for their world
class rides
without
excessive
pounding as well
as being
extremely dry
boats in all
kinds of sea
conditions.
The Hooked Up II
is without
questions one of
the very best
riding and
driest charter
boats you will
ever fish on
plus a super
huge cockpit to
accommodate up
to 6 anglers and
crew
comfortably.
For your safety
we had two new
Caterpillar
Diesels
installed in
June of 2009 as
we feel having twin
diesels engines
is a must when
running 60-100
miles when offshore
fishing.

Scroll down the
home page for
more offshore
pictures from
last season as
it was one of
the very best on
Yellowfin Tuna
in many years
running mostly
day troll trips.
I will be
posting a
synopsis shortly
on the 2011
offshore season
for our
customers to
review to help
them decide when
and what type of
trip they might
be interested in
this coming 2012
season.
