Capt. Ralph owns and operates Y Knot Charters, a 44’ Bonner powered by twin 225 HP Diesel engines, with enough room on board to accommodate groups of up to 6 anglers per trip. The boat features a complete pilot house and 4 air conditioners on board and has 6 bunks organized in 2 separate staterooms.

The Y Knot Charters Key West crew specializes in offshore and reef/wreck fishing, spearfishing, and scuba diving. A variety of game species inhabit these waters, including Tuna, Mahi Mahi, King Mackerel, and even an occasional Wahoo and Sailfish, whereas bottom fishing often produces a variety of Groupers and Snappers.

Each trip includes all the appropriate fishing gear provided by the crew, as well as bait, ice, snacks, and bottled water. When it comes to scuba diving and spearfishing gear, if you want to use it, please let your captain know in advance, so that he can prepare everything for your trip.

Capt. Ralph loves teaching novices and families how to fish and scuba dive and will always go the extra mile for you to have a great time and make wonderful memories, so hop aboard!
