Overnight Fishing Trips aboard the Yankee Freedom
Come aboard the 100' Yankee Freedom for some great fishing! Bait or jig fishing at its best, we will be targeting mostly cod and haddock. Our range is beyond the normal day fishing areas, spots where the captain believes the best opportunities are - increasing the fishing time, and maximizing the fishing opportunities for our anglers.
Limited Capacity
The Freedom climate controlled inner cabin, with a full cash galley on board for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. We only take 40 passengers, so there is plenty of elbow room, unlike others, that take 25% or more additional passengers on a vessel of similar size. The Yankee Freedom also has 40 comfortable semi-private bunks available on board.
