"Stress Reeliever" - 32 Foot Ocean Master - Fishing Quepos, Costa Rica

BOAT INFO

"Stress Reeliever" is an awesome, professionally rigged 32 foot South Florida Ocean Master with high end Furuno electronics and the finest in Penn and Shiimano fishing tackle. Recently the recipient of a $50,000 overhaul, it is a great boat with a super enthusiastic crew! We like to fish as much as you do!

Boat has a private clean bathroom with a toilet and a door for the ladies!

Brand new Cummins Diesel with new ZF transmission, VHF radio, Furuno GPS Color GPS Chartplotter with all Latin American Maps, Furuno Digital FCV 585 color fish finder, Gyro Stabilized binoculars, cell phone, Fighting Chair, Rupp tuna tower and outriggers, tackle, Shimano Tiagra Reels, 2010 Penn International VSWX Reels, Calstar Graphite trolling rods, a full assortment of "Sumo Tackle" stand-up harnesses, Moldcraft Marlin Teasers, and fighting belts, huge shaded area with nice bimini shade, marine toilet, First-Aid Kit, and all the necessary emergency / safety equipment onboard. Boat is equipped with a live well and 8 large tuna tubes. For Inshore trips, for some baits we have a smaller bait fishing boat fishing for us ensuring we have the live bait required for the trip without wasting any time looking for bait (like some of the other boats). With a higher cruise speed most Quepos boats this size, the Stress Reeliever is one of the faster boats over 28 feet in Quepos and is always the boat getting on the fish first. We are also the busiest boat in Quepos, and being out on the water almost everyday helps us keep track of where the fish are hiding!

Come relax and withl the freedom to move around... With its large Open Center Console design, 10ft. wide Cockpit area, & 360 degrees of walk around deck space available, the 32 Ocean Master provides lots of shade and room to fish comfortably! This boat is the roomiest boat available in Quepos in the 30 foot range.

"Stress Reeliever" has the reputation of getting Anglers on the Quepos Fishing grounds in short time! That extra time means everything when it comes to fishing and everyone knows that great catches often occur during the final minutes of the day. Also, being one of the busier if not the busiest boats here means we probably have just been out fishing and found the fish the day before and have a good idea where to start looking. Owner/Captain John also strives to be the first of boats to arrive on the scene and plans on being the last boat to pack it up and head back home for the day! Customer satisfaction and a memorable catch are our top priorities!

 

CAPTAIN JOHN

 

Growing up in Louisiana and Texas, John is no stranger to the water or boats. From first sneaking out his fathers boat at age 14 to taking offshore excursiones in his friends dad's hatteras off the coast of Louisiana, John has always loved boats and fishing! Finally making it to Costa Rica in Septmenber of 2007, he has been living the boating / fishing lovers dream! He bought a 32 foot custom made boat upon arriving to Costa Rica, and since 2008 has been the owner of the 32 foot Ocean Master "Stress Reeliever" featured here! One sure thing about fishing with John and Rudy, is they will enjoy your fishing trip as much as you!

FIRST MATE RUDY

First Mate Rudy has been fishing in Quepos since he was 5 years old. He was involved in two records, including the World Record Black Snook for largest snook ever caught (63 pounds) while he was fishing with his oldest brother Jeffery, and Largest Roosterfish ever caught in Costa Rica (89 pounds) while fishing with his brother Roy. Now our full time mate, he has added a ton of excitement and new fishing ideas to our game!

*I have had many people asking me why he is holding this little fish in the picutre and not a Big Rooster or a Giant Snook. While I have both of those types of photos with him, the truth is I rarely take pictures with the fish and wanted to make sure my fish was way bigger than his fish in these photos! Because, after all, I'm the Captain :) !!!

QUEPOS FISHING FORECAST

February-April 2011-2012

Billfish season is here! January through April is when all the sailfish and Marlin come out and we are so looking forward to some awesome billfish action! This year we have tons of new tricks in addition to the old ones so we should have some great numbers! In addition to the Top of the line Furuno Sonar, and all new Penn Reels, I just got some High Powered stabilized binoculars. These are the ones that can spot birds at 5-6 miles, and if you shake them, the picture in them doesn't move. They look like something out of a Star Wars Movie and I expect to find lots of birds, floating debris and most importantly FINS! We also installed about 8000 dollars in sound and vibration reducing equipment and this should be our best year yet! We should really start seeing some good Dorado action from October to January, landing quite a few of the big bulls. We'll have the spinning gear ready for those fisherman who are really looking for a crazy fight. For those of you who like pulling up big fish from way down below, the bottom fishing should stay really awesome as well with quite a few Amberjacks and Snapper coming out each trip. With the new gear, we should also be able to spot Yellow Fins from way off, so I expect to be getting quite a bit more Tuna Action! Inshore we now will use a smaller boat with captain Jerry. last year in high season, Jerry really cleaned up the Roosterfish with his largest being 80 pounds and his most released were 11 large ones. In addition, we have quite a few areas that will be great to throw poppers to hit those snappes on top! Inshore should also come with the occasional Jack, Spanish Mackeral and Barracuda bite. High season is finally here, and we are already 50% booked so make sure to reserve your days quick before we fill up!

Costa Rica Travel

Thinking about doing something tropical but don't know where to start? I'd love to get everything setup for you! I have stayed at almost every hotel here, I know which ones you will like and which ones are prettier on their webpages :) Let me handle all the details like hotel reservations and transport, so you can focus on just relaxing. Also, Costa Rica is the safest country in Latin America, and with us guiding your vacation, you can experience the very best parts of this amazing country. As if the awesome beach just 5 minutes from the dock isn't enough reason to fall in love with Costa Rica, you could always visit other parts of this small but amazing country as well. You could check out Volcano Arenal, which is very active and has multiple hot water resorts at the base, or MonteVerde, a cloud forest with zip lines, the best ATV trips on Earth, and massive suspension bridges. Closer to Quepos, there are amazing White Water Rafting tours, and horseback trails, waterfalls and more! We can take care of all the details so you can just a have a great trip. I have been to every place I reccommend and I only send my customers to the best locations. After my first trip here, I moved here, so I'm sending you to all the same spots that made me fall in love with Costa Rica!
