RJ's Compass Guide Service

We currently employ a 2019 Starcraft 196 Fishmaster, This is a 19’-6” Deep Vee vessel with a 100” beam and high side walls designed for the big water. Our boat features comfortable seating and a full canopy for days when the weather isn’t favorable. Propelled by a 150hp Yamaha 4 stroke which has been very reliable. For our trolling needs we use a Minn Kota, Terrova 112# Thrust, 72” shaft, 36volt I-pilot system and a 9.9 Yamaha 4 stoke with I-troll remote control for forward thrust. 

Our Fishmaster is equipment with the Latest Electronics available, at the helm we have a Lowrance HDS 12”, and at the Stern we use a Hummingbird Helix 8”. Both units utilize 3 and 1 transducers at the lower stern to assist us in quickly locating and targeting the fish and higher rate of speed plus identifying structure and features known to hold fish.

We also have up to date safety materials such as extinguishers, First Aid Kit, USCG approved Type 1 life jackets, Throwable preserver, Ship to shore registered Radio. 

For the personal needs we do have a porta-potty with privacy tent for the relief emergencies. 

Our vessel is Coastguard approved and DNR compliant for your safety and ours.
