ABOUT JEAN MARIE - CHARTER & FISHING BOAT:
M.V. Jean Marie is a 10 metre Cougar Cat, in 1E and 2C Survey with the New South Wales Waterways.
Powered by two 200 hp Yamaha outboard motors, it carries a full array of electronics for safety and convenience. EPIRB, radar, colour sounders, GPS plotter, HF, VHF and 27 meg marine radios, marine toilet, freshwater tank, galley and sink all add to the creature comforts.
Cruising speed is around 20 knots with a top speed of nearly 30 knots!!
Originally commissioned by the Queensland National Parks, it served it's early years on Patrol in the wilds of North Queensland and the Cape York Areas. Purchased in 1998 by its present owners it was brought to Batemans Bay where it has resided and been servicing the Batemans Bay Fishing Community ever since.
Its twin hull 'catamaran' design delivers a very stable ride and platform from which to fish with a wide beam and flat deck. Fishing from the covered aft cockpit you're shaded from the sun and protected by the bulwark while cushioned seats give a nice level of comfort.
Having seating available inside the cabin, protection from the elements is available should rain or wind appear.
Outrigger poles enable multiple line trolling if desired with a live bait tank built in to the rear transom.
Batemans Bay Fishing's M.V. Jean Marie is licenced to carry up to 15 people but we normally keep our fishing numbers down to much less than that to maximise your comfort and fishing pleasure.
Your safety on the water is important to us, please read the Batemans Bay Fishing safety notice...
