Head out on a 4-hour private inshore fishing charter aboard Purple Water, a spacious and stable 30' custom Crosby Hawk. With room to fish comfortably and flexibility for fly or spinning gear, it’s a great fit for mixed-experience groups.
Capacity is 1–6 anglers, with a maximum of 6. You are responsible for bringing water due to the island’s plastic water bottle ban. A jacket and sun protection are recommended.
Cancel at least 7 days prior to your scheduled charter to avoid being charged. Cancellations within 7 days of the scheduled charter are charged 100%. No-shows are charged in full. The operator may cancel due to weather and will try to rebook.
Where do we meet for the charter?
Meet at F Street in Madaket, Nantucket, MA 02554 (Walter S. Barrett Public Pier). You’ll be waiting on the boat about 100 yards down the road where it turns into the dock.
Do we need to arrive early?
No. There is no need to arrive early—the boat will be ready when you arrive.
Do we need a fishing license?
No, you do not need a fishing license.
Is parking available at the meeting location?

What happens if the charter is canceled due to weather?
The operator reserves the right to cancel due to weather and will do their best to rebook your charter for another day.
Captain Carl, Tyler, and Jason consistently get rave reviews from their charter guests, with visitors praising their exceptional knowledge of local fishing spots around Nantucket, Tuckernuck, and Muskeget. The captains have a knack for reading the tides and putting groups on steady action with stripers, blues, bonito, and sea bass. Even on slower fishing days, the crew maintains a great attitude and works hard to keep lines tight. Families especially appreciate the patience shown with younger anglers, and the entire operation demonstrates strong ethics around catch-and-release practices and size regulations. The booking process is straightforward, the boats and gear are top-notch, and the crew's local expertise shines through whether conditions are ideal or challenging. Groups regularly report non-stop fishing for hours, with many guests returning year after year. It's an excellent activity for teens and novice anglers, with captains who genuinely care about delivering memorable outings on the water.
Great time with Captain Tyler! Lots and lots of bonito!
