Booked the trip for my 3 grandsons, 19 year old, 17 year old, and 15 year old.  They had the best time fishing!  Crew was excellent and professional or “cool as hell” as the grandsons put it.  They caught a few mahi-mahi (kept), a mackerel (kept), a baracuda (threw back) and blue runner (threw back).  The grandson that caught the baracuda— that made his day.  Sadly all the pictures they took were done on snapchat—an app that the pictures disappear into cyberspace never to be seen again so I can’t post any pictures.

Captain Rafael is all about “safety first”, which was a huge comfort to me.  It’s not about the money, it’s about a safe and memorable trip for fishermen.  There was a little storm that was passing when the boys were scheduled to go out.  I was a little nervous to let them go out in such bad weather.  Captain assured me that once they were a mile or so from land the weather looked fine (on radar) and they’d be safe and would have lots of fun.  He was right!  The weather was fine offshore and the boys (young men) had a great time!  They talked about it for hours after returning.  Thank you Captain for providing my grandsons a memory of a lifetime.  They LOVE to fish and this was their first deep sea fishing adventure.  They can’t wait to do another deep sea fishing trip!

Great experience and great crew. Unfortunately we didn’t catch any keepers, but not for not trying. That’s just how it goes sometimes. Either way had great conversation with the crew and they were super polite and even recommended us some good on-land fishing spots for the rest of our week here. Will book again next time we are in Florida and hopefully during a better time for fishing. The weather, tide, cold front, etc were just not on our side this day.

Just returned from a half day fishing charter on the Seacross II with Captain Ralph and Sheldon. The 45’ boat is spacious with plenty of space for fishing and a large air conditioned cabin to go in and relax. They had 6 lines set for us at all times (4 on outriggers) The fishing chair is very comfortable and easy to get into (doesn’t hang off the back of the boat) Captain Ralph is a character! He’s friendly, personable and determined to make sure everyone has a great time fishing. Sheldon is so nice! We loved having him as our first mate- he’s polite, diligent, and fun! We ended up with more Bonito than we knew what to do with and 1 delicious King fish, which fried up nicely. We look forward to fishing with Captain Ralph and Sheldon again.

Spent the whole day with Sea Cross and loved every second. Pete and Ken were awesome and our boys loved hanging with them. The fishing was good but the experience was great. 5 species were caught and the fish box was loaded with many meals for later.

This was an incredible experience. We were not experienced fishers, and the captain and crew taught us all we needed to know and more! The staff were very knowledgeable, friendly, and funny. We also caught a lot of fish. Highly recommend this charter.
