About This Charter
The Blue Cowboy takes you where other boats can't. This 34-foot Contender has the range to reach the Marquesas Keys. It's adventure fishing at its finest.
Reach the Remote Marquesas
The Marquesas Keys sit 30 miles west of Key West. Most boats can't make the trip. The Blue Cowboy can.
This circular atoll is one of the most pristine places in Florida. Crystal-clear water. Abundant wildlife. Zero development. Zero crowds. It's like stepping back in time.
A Deep-V Hull Built for the Journey
Contender designed this boat for offshore work. The deep-V hull cuts through chop. The long-range tanks give us the fuel to explore. The wide beam provides stability.
You'll ride in comfort even on longer crossings. The smooth ride matters when you're covering distance.
More Than Just Fishing
The Blue Cowboy delivers a complete backcountry experience. Fish the remote flats for snapper and permit. Explore the mangrove islands. Watch for sea turtles and rays. Learn about the area's rich history.
Your captain knows stories about Spanish treasure fleets. About Navy operations during World War II. About the German U-boat sunk nearby. This is more than fishing — it's a journey through time.
Incredible Light Tackle Fishing
The Marquesas see little fishing pressure. Fish are less wary. More aggressive. The action can be incredible.
Mangrove snapper. Mutton snapper. Red and gag grouper. Permit patrol the flats. Barracuda lurk on the edges. Sharks cruise the channels. It's diverse and exciting.
Flexible Trip Options
Half-day trips work for sampling the fishing near Key West. But full-day trips unlock the Marquesas. We recommend 8 hours minimum for that adventure.
We can also run offshore for sailfish. Deep drop for exotic species. Chase kingfish and cobia around the wrecks. The Blue Cowboy handles it all.
An Open Deck for Action
The center console layout keeps everything accessible. There's room to move, cast, and fight fish. No cramped quarters. No obstacles.
Comfortable seating lets everyone rest between spots. The cooler keeps drinks cold and fish fresh.
