The Pacific Queen


My son Drew, who earned his captain’s license in ‘05, recently became partners with Pacific Queen owner Bill Cavanaugh. The Pacific Queen is an 88’ sport fishing boat, originally built in 1944 to rescue downed planes… and has since been converted to a sport fisher. Drew has been part of the sport fishing industry for eleven years, and his partner Bill has been in it for 30 years. Drew earned his captains’ license while working on the Apollo, beginning with summers during college at UCSD.

The Pacific Queen runs anywhere from one- to eight-day trips out of Fisherman’s Landing in Point Loma. They fish primarily in Mexican waters, and mainly catch tuna in the summer, along with yellowtail and dorado. Average fares are $200 a day…and their boat holds up to 33 passengers.

Next time you want a maritime adventure I hope you give them a call! I can’t wait to go out…

Their website is www.Pacific-queen.com . For more information call Fisherman’s landing – at 619-221-8500.

I can’t say how proud I am of Drew for his achievements and for following his dream. He is a true Waterman! i.e. captain, fisherman, surfer, spearfisher…and jack of all trades on the boat!
