    Report on-board Dentex II

    Hi Guys

    DENTEX II is now here and available for hire.

    Well guys, a bit of a shock. I had ‘The Dentex’ all sprayed up, looking great and ready for the season ahead. I got her back in the water and things all changed.

    I made an offer on a new boat including a PX for ‘The Dentex’ and it was all systems go. Within a week I had a another cracking boat. I’ve decided to call her DENTEX II. I’ve had all the logos done and she’s looking great. The web site will soon be reflecting this superb craft but if you want to see her go onto the Facebook page by taking the link from here.

    The boat is a Portland 10 which is 35ft long with a beam of 3.7metres, so there is loads of fishing area and there’s seating under cover for anglers to get out of the bad weather. She has 2 engines which are caterpillar 300hp giving a top speed of 29 knots and with an easy cruising speed loaded up of 18 knots. So less time in traveling to the fishing grounds just more time fishing – happy days.

    Since I have had her the fishing has just carried on as before with the ‘Dentex’ with lots of fish coming on board.

    This season is looking great with lots of skate, whiting, doggies, bass and also there are a great number of codling about 1lb to 3lb at the moment so the season is really looking good.

    All in all for ‘Dentex Charters’ things are looking bright with lots of new customers coming on board to enjoy a great day out in comfort and style.

    Weekends for the rest of the year are almost full so be quick to get in but midweek sailings are ok.

    Evening trips are getting busy with doggies and whitings there and maybe the codlings will push up the Medway soon.

    All the best

    Skipper Steve
