Captain
Brian Borgeson is the owner/operator of the business.
He holds a Coast Guard 100 Ton Masters license and has
been plying the waters off of Nantucket as a captain
and a mate for 15 years. As a native of Wayland, Massachusetts,
Brian has spent his entire life fishing and clamming
the shores of the Commonwealth. As a result, Brian has
extensive experience catching the many fish species
found in our Nantucket waters. He began his Nantucket
fishing career working as a mate on both recreational
and commercial fishing boats. He then rose to captain
of the Absolute in 2003 and purchased the business from
Captain Dave Martin in 2005 thereby continuing the excellent
fishing tradition started by Captain Martin in 1981.
In the off-season, Brian plies the waters of Nantucket
harbor as a commercial scalloper. Whether it's a 6 pound
bluefish or a 300 pound mako shark, Brian is passionate
about making sure clients, young and old, have the experience
of their Nantucket vacation. Just check out the pictures!
Brian takes great pride in running the most family friendly
charter boat on the dock. He is especially patient with
young children because nobody knows better what its
like to reel-in their first bluefish or striper and
he enjoys instilling the passion for fishing at an early
age. You will know this when he comes down from the
bridge to give a few high fives! Captain Brian is one
of the main reasons why families make a fishing trip
on the Absolute a part of their Nantucket vacation year
in and year out. Brian always has room up on the bridge
to help kids learn the ways of the seas off of Nantucket. |
