Randy was raised in Washington and began fishing with his father at a very young age.  In 1978 and 1979, he worked as a deckhand in Westport.  He then moved to southern California to work with his brother-in-law, Sterling Santley, who is the alternate captain of the Rampage.  Sterling introduced Randy to big game tournament fishing and they got several competition wins to their credit.  They also ran a six pack charter boat service in San Diego in-between tournaments.  While the staple fish was albacore, they also targeted giant blue fin tuna, yellow fin tuna, big eye tuna, Mahi-Mahi (dolphin fish), yellow tail, marlin, mako sharks, thresher sharks, halibut, bonito, barracuda, white sea bass, sand bass, calico bass and rockfish.

Randy and Sterling have over 50 years of experience between them.  Randy has run boats all the way from Washington to Cabo San  Lucas, Mexico and, after fishing all along the west coast, decided to return to Washington because he felt that it still has some of the best fishing in the world.

The Rampage, formerly the Macs Effort, provides a fast comfortable ride.  It is 55’ long and has twin 450 horse Detroit V871 turbo diesel engines that will get you to the fishing grounds quickly.  The Rampage is also a great fishing platform that is easy to get around on and has plenty of space around the rail and in the cockpit.  It is equipped with a refrigerated fish hold (no salt brine on this boat) for the best quality fish keeping.  In addition, the Rampage has 10 comfortable bunks, modern electronics, high definition TV, a DVD player and surround sound.  The full galley is equipped with a stove and a microwave/convection oven and the wheel house lounge is a great place for guests to visit with the crew.

Be sure to request the Rampage for premier service and fish care.  You are fishing with friends when you fish on the Rampage.
