Our Boat the Flipper II
Flipper II is a well maintained Beneteau Antares (Salt water fishing) boat which was originally built in 1994. She is powered by 2 x 200hp Volvo Penta engines.
The boat is fully coded and insured and is skippered by two fully qualified British captains, both who have decades of experience of fishing and running charter boats.
We also have a world recognised and very experienced wireman who is a complete asset to the boat and adds so much to your fishing experience. We call ourselves the dream team because our ultimate aim is to make your dreams come true.
Flipper II puts out a fantastic wash and raises fish well. We as the skippers and crew are there to take over once a fish surfaces along with the anglers efforts the boat, skipper and crew will work together to bring the fish along side. We aim to make this a Big Game experience to remember.
Our pleasure is your success!
Our Equipment
Flipper II has high quality fishing tackle to ensure you get your fish to the boat. We troll for Blue Marlin with 130lb Penn Internationals and 130lb Shimano reels paired with 130lb quality rods all of which are loaded with the best quality lines and pulling the best quality lures.
We have a range of Penn International reels for those who want to fight a fish on smaller gear. Our reels range from 130lb to 70lb, 50lb, 30lb and lighter.
When it comes to fishing we will give you the best of our knowledge and experience but at the same time if you have a lure you feel you want to put in the spread we are very happy to let you choose or even bring your own.
When you book a days fishing with Flipper II we aim to tailor the day so you are completely satisfied with your experience.

Big Game Fishing
Big Game Fishing is often expected to be far offshore, but in Madeira’s case, the opposite applies. Flipper II is able to start fishing within minutes of leaving the harbour due to the deep deep waters around the island of Madeira. Very often we can hook up within minutes and in the reverse we are just as likely to hook a fish just before returning home. Because of this you can expect to be staying out just a little bit longer than expected.
Deep water runs along the entire shoreline so we can fish offshore or inshore and still expect to see a monster fish. This is the beauty of Madeira.
Landing a Big Blue Marlin is an anglers dream and we are here to help you achieve that. Whether you are after a new personal best or a first time angler come along and let us help you achieve your dream.
We are living ours!
