CAREEL Careel is a 10 metre high speed Cougar Catamaran, as used by Police Rescue and Coastguard Departments. She was custom built locally in 1996, is extremely stable and boasts a top speed of 37 Knots. With a fishing platform larger than most vessels we can cater for groups up to 12 in undercover comfort. Careel is powered by twin 250hp Yamaha 4 -Stroke engines fitted in July 2010, which means no smoke and fumes while you experience our magnificent fishing destinations on the Gold Coast. We can go faster so you can fish the deep outer reefs and remember when you go faster you can fish longer! She has all the creature comforts including private toilet, shower and seating for all. Fully certified and safety equipped. We provide you with more fishing time than any other Gold Coast Fishing Charter Company. This is due to our fast boats, departure location and extended charter times.   VESSEL DEPARTURE LOCATION   The Spit Pontoon, Muriel Henchman Drive, Main Beach, Qld. UBD.
