Dad and Daughter on Lobster Boat Charter

Welcome Aboard!

At Rock Lobster Charters, we prioritize safety, education, and most of all fun!

Our Trips are run by David and Grace. David is an enthusiastic captain who to tell you all about what it is like to be a local lobsterman, and to teach you about Rockport’s waters. He is a licensed captain with 40 years of boating experience. Grace is David’s first mate and daughter. She is a college student at the University of Vermont. She has her boating license for 7 years and has experience working with kids on the water.

We have a bathroom on board, a cooler to hold the snacks and drinks of your choice, and a speaker to blast your favorite tunes. We want you and your party to be comfortable and excited to have a great time on the water.

“Our trip to New England would not have been complete without the lobster charter. It was a fantastic way to see the beautiful Massachusetts seascape as well as an educational, interactive, and fun lobster adventure. It was the highlight of our trip and our boys still talk about the experience today.”

“My 11-year old daughter and I had the most wonderful day with Grace and David. Their set up is fantastic—incredible boat, unmatched local knowledge, and more lobster than we could ever imagine. We learned so much about the North Shore and lobstering. It was a so well run and hands on—Grace teaching my daughter how to band claws and David educating us about the beautiful Cape Ann coastline. What a quintessential New England summer experience out on the open sea! And to top it all off, what an incredible surprise when we saw a whale cresting out on the open ocean on our way in!”
