Deep Sea Fishing Charter Specialists - Great Barrier Reef & The Coral Sea
FISH THE GREAT BARRIER REEF ABOARD MIKAT CRUISES
Welcome aboard the M.V. Mikat � The Ultimate Fishing Trip Cruiser for extended voyages to The Great Barrier Reef, Swains and beyond. The opportunity exists for you and or your clients to join us for a fishing charter to some of the best sites available, try dory fishing on bombies around the shallow reefs, or off the shelf in the deepwater for sport fishing for the prolific pelagics.
|
The Mikat is a purpose built, well appointed 20 metre Aluminium Catamaran powered by V8 SCANIA DL 16 800Hp to give a very comfortable cruise speed of 15k, so less travelling time and more fishing. Being a catamaran with a beam of 7 metres it is a very stable platform for fishing and with USL 1 B Survey, we have the capability to do extended cruises to the very remote reefs, islands and cays in the Coral Sea.
