The Boat

The Boat

The Lucky Strike is a custom built 46’ Markley powered by a 490 HP Cummins diesel and was built on Maryland’s Eastern Shore specifically for the Chesapeake Bay.

It and its crew undergo an arduous US Coast Guard inspection every year and is USCG certified to carry 17 passengers and 2 crew on all waters of the Chesapeake Bay.

The boat is very clean, comfortable, and exceptionally well maintained with a large cabin, clean bathroom and a covered aft deck. We take great pride in having one of the nicest boats on the Bay.

It is equipped with all USCG required safety equipment and well as state of the art electronics to ensure safety and to aid in finding the fish.


      Electronics include:

  • Furuno Sounder and GPS
  • Airmar CHIRP 1KW transducer
  • Furuno Radar
  • Garmin GPS
  • Icom VHF Radio
  • Fujinon stabilized binoculars

When it comes to tackle, you simply will not find a better-equipped charter boat. We offer:

  • All the trolling rods are custom built by Billy O’Brien and Mark Galasso at Shore Tackle and Custom Rods.
  • All the trolling reels are Shimano Tekota 800’s
  • Light tackle rods are custom built by Steve Fogle of Backyard Custom Rods
  • All the light tackle reels are Shimano Baitrunner 4000Ds
