The D-N-T and its crew
The operator identifies the vessel as a 57-foot Egg Harbor powered by twin MAN diesel engines. Its layout includes an air-conditioned salon, galley, private restroom and seating on the flybridge. The larger boat suits a group looking for indoor shelter alongside a working fishing cockpit.
Tony's published introduction describes more than 35 years of offshore experience. Families and first-time anglers are welcome, and the crew helps guests through the fishing process. Explain your group's ages and experience so the outing can be planned around people as well as fish.
How the charter lengths compare
A half day is five hours and is listed at $1,700. The seven-hour three-quarter day is $1,900, while the nine-hour full day is $2,100. These are private boat packages, with no more than six passengers under the operator's posted limit.
Longer bookings leave more time to move between fishing areas and try different methods. The advertised fishing includes sailfish, mahi, kingfish, blackfin tuna, wahoo and bottom fishing. Discuss the day's likely targets when reserving, especially if your main interest is releasing billfish or bringing home legal table fish.
What the boat supplies
DNT lists Shimano and Avet reels with Blackfin Custom Rods. The boat page includes tackle, bait, ice, bottled water, snacks and fishing license coverage. The crew cleans, bags and ices retained fish at the end of the trip.
Live bait is an extra expense. The FAQ quotes $30 per dozen, while the boat page says it is available by request. Ask how much may be needed and whether that charge is included in your final estimate. You may bring additional food and drinks, and a rain jacket is useful even with a dry cabin available.
Reserving the day
Call or text the published number, or use the booking form to choose a trip, date and party size. The form also accepts inquiries for East Side tuna trips and overnight Bahamas charters. Those options require a separate discussion of itinerary, paperwork, cost and availability.
A credit card holds the date. The charter page says cancellation within seven days carries a $400 charge. For weather cancellations, it describes rescheduling on a mutually agreed date. Confirm the complete cancellation and refund terms before making travel arrangements, because the reviewed wording does not describe every possible outcome.
The contact address is on SE Bayview Street. Get precise dock directions and the check-in time from DNT rather than assuming the street address alone identifies the boarding point.
