I may have a deal for you. I am going to sell up to, a 1/2 share of my commercial fishing vessel the Two Sisters ( 37' canadian built double ender, but registered in the US ) , before this Tuna season begins or sooner. That would mean you would make up to, 1/2 of the gross income, but also have up to 1/2 of all the costs. The boat is very fuel efficient at 1 to 1.5 gallons an hour and all the major stuff has been done. I just need to haul out and paint this spring. With this deal you would be put on the title as a joint owner of the boat also. I am sure there will be some questions and some things to work out. You will find, I am a pretty easy guy to deal with and will be open to any ideas. I am also a pretty fair skipper as well. I have been fishing the ocean myself, for 30 years. I have navigated waters from Alaska to San Francisco, and have 100s of bar crossings. I have crossed just about every bar in Washington, and Oregon. Some many times, others just once or twice, and in all conditions. I would love to get someone that whats a taste of this life, and wants to be a commercial fisherman. A 1/3rd share will cost $10,000 with 1/3rd of the annual expenses (besides fuel and gear) being around $750.00 dollars give or take. That includes annual haul out and maintenance costs, and annual moorage fees. FYI most of that $10,000 will be going back into the boat too. 1/2 share would be $15,000 with 1/2 of the annual costs being around $1000.00 I only have fished tuna with her since I bought her back in June of 2008. I am looking at other fisheries and licenses. I am also open to fishing up in Alaska, or any where else on the West Coast. This is a good way to get into a boat and commercial fishing with out all the expense. If at all interested just send me a PM or E-Mail, I would love to talk to you.

I will sell the whole boat as well, but I would rather have a partner and still fish ;) I have the boat listed on boatsforsalebyowner.net for $25,000.00 I'm pretty firm on the price because of how much I have invested in her, and, I still want to go fishing! :) who ever comes up with either the money to be a partner or the money to buy first will get part or all the boat. Thanks for your interest.

Still looking for a partner I would like to go to SE Alaska and hand troll for salmon, I would consider a hand troll permit as part of the payment for partnership. Like I have said before, I am easy to deal with and open to any and all ideas. Give me a call and lets talk 541-280-5927
