Local Charter Fisherman Prepares Craft for Upcoming Season

SAXON HARBOR, WI - Thursday, April 23, 2009 - Captain Bud Johnson was busy getting his charter boat, the Cacchen, ready for the upcoming season yesterday.

The Cacchen is a 38 foot Chris Craft Commander. The boat is inspected by the Michigan Department of Natural Resources as required by Michigan law. This inspection assures the passengers that the boat is a seaworthy vessel and that all the required safety equipment is on board and in good working order.

The lower cabin has a galley with hot and cold running water and dinette that will seat four people. Across from the dinette is a full length couch. A full service head (restroom) is just off the main cabin. The forward V-berth has two full length bunks.

The aft deck, with over 120 square feet, has abundant room for the whole crew to enjoy the fishing experience.

Central air conditioning is available if the weather becomes too warm. This doesn't happen too often on Lake Superior.
