The Sailfish Houseboat is a classic house boat completely remodeled in 2014. It sits with an Ocean View on the outside dock of Bud n’ Mary’s marina. 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 Sailfish houseboat has one bedroom with two full size beds, a bathroom with shower, a futon, Satellite TV, A/C, a mini fridge and a microwave. If you want to experience Islamorada in true Key’s fashion, try the Sailfish House boat! 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 Sailfish Houseboat.

Captain Bill Bassett at Bud and Mary’s My husband and I are boat owners and fish out of OCNJ for the past 30+ years. We came to Islamorada to fish a full day back country through the Everglades for a new experience; catch some fish new to us and see some cool wildlife. Friends referred us to Bud and Mary’s and after chatting with us for a bit, Chrissy paired us with Capt Bill Bassett saying that it would be a great fit, and she was right. Capt Bill is a master of his craft, knows where to fish, how to catch and cater to his clients. We caught snook, bonefish, sea trout, a bunch of jacks and saw some crocs 😀. He’s also an entertaining conversationalist, the 8 hour trip passed in a blink. What a fantastic experience, thanks so much Captain Bill and Bud & Mary’s Marina!
Took some friends from out of town on the Miss Islamorada party fishing boat at Budnmarys. When ever I come down to the Keys I always stay at Budnmarys they have the best service as well the cutest houseboats facing the ocean, clean facilities, and great customer service. Oh and their cafe has by far the best large homemade buttermilk biscuit breakfast sandwiches, plus they make a great sub for you to take on the boat with you. Oh and for you cat lovers out there be sure to swing by the office to meet Mary the friendly dockside cat. Well back to the fishing, I had some friends from Utah come down and they never fished the Atlantic before. This was my first time using them and definitely not the last. We caught a lot of yellowtail snapper along with my first keeper size mutton snapper. Between the wittiness of the Captain and Brad/Phillip (mates) assisting us every step of the way. Made our fishing that much better and easier. I will be back soon, heck maybe next week for my birthday.
Dylan Bryan best captain in the keys make sure to book with the Bn'M if you wanna catch some big fish
