The Swordfish Houseboat is a classic house boat completely remodeled in 2022. It sits with an Ocean View on the outside dock (behind the barn) at Bud n’ Mary’s Mairna. The boat is secured to the dock and doesn’t leave. There is NO cooking on this boat.  We also do not allow children under 15 to stay on the houseboats.

The Swordfish houseboat has one bedroom with a queen bed, smaller bedroom with two twin beds, a bathroom with shower, a futon, Satellite TV, A/C, a mini fridge and a microwave. Wake up on the water as you watch the sunrise over the Atlantic ocean! We have a minimum of a 2 night stay on the Swordfish Houseboat.

5 star ratingFished with Capt Rick in the Gulf last week, wreck fishing after a bad cold front. Non stop action for Spanish Mackerel and Blue Fish, even a few bonus snapper for lunch. Action was so great my son took out his fly rod for the Spanish and slammed them on the fly. If you want a fun filled action day, call Capt Rick at Bud and Mary's

5 star ratingWe were looking for an inexpensive fishing charter for the day when we drove by and saw the sign, $70 all day party boat. COVID restrictions limited boat capacity to 30 which was the perfect amount of people without being over crowded. The boat wasn't luxurious by any means but what do you expect for that price. Not a long ride out, about 45 minutes. The captain had us on fish all day! The deck hands, Ray and Erin were awesome guys and very helpful with anything you needed. All you had to do was bait your hook and catch the fish! Most of the day was fishing and not riding which was great. Definitely will be back! Thanks guys, cheers!
