Why Fish Key West Aboard the Cowgirl?

With a skilled local crew and a clean, roomy layout, every detail of the Cowgirl is designed for an effortless and exciting day offshore.

Comfort & Features of the 45’ Hatteras

The Cowgirl is one of the few deep sea charter boats in Key West offering true indoor comfort. The cold A/C cabin provides the perfect break from the heat, while the wide beam and stable hull deliver a smooth ride offshore. Inside, you’ll find comfortable seating, a shaded salon, and a clean private restroom.

Families, seasoned anglers, and groups appreciate the extra space, cold drinks, and the ability to recharge in a climate-controlled cabin between hookups. It’s the ideal blend of serious offshore performance and full-day comfort.

Premium Sportfishing Setup for Big Game Battles

Built for serious fishing, the Cowgirl is tournament-tested and equipped with a 130-pound fighting chair, high-quality rods and reels, and modern offshore electronics. This setup gives you an advantage when targeting marlin, sailfish, tuna, wahoo, and other pelagic species.

With decades of experience in marlin tournaments, the Cowgirl has proven offshore capability — giving anglers a strong chance at big game on longer trips.

Breathtaking Views from the Sky Lounge Flybridge

Ride out to the fishing grounds from the elevated Sky Lounge flybridge, one of the most popular spots on the boat. With cushioned seating and panoramic views, it’s perfect for spotting dolphins, sea turtles, flying fish, and diving birds that signal a bite.

Whether watching the sunrise or scanning the horizon for offshore activity, the Sky Lounge offers a unique vantage point and a refreshing breeze.

Extended Fishing Trips – The Ultimate Offshore Experience

The Cowgirl is built for endurance, making her a top choice for full-day and extended deep sea fishing charters.

8-Hour Deep Sea Trip
