Travel to the finest vacation destinations and fishing grounds in the Eastern Pacific during the optimal fishing periods on your custom 46-foot Release Boatworks’ sport-fishing yacht for a fraction of the cost and without the unknown hassles that come with assembling and maintaining a traveling sport-fishing yacht. Fractional ownership has been proven in Mega Yachts, Vacation Homes and Private Aircraft, but for one of the first times it is being applied to a sport-fishing yacht.

The Release 46 is a custom sport-fishing machine outfitted with the latest technology and finest tackle available to take full advantage of best fishing and vacation locations in the Pacific. We have coupled this world class yacht with a captain and crew who have fished the world’s finest billfish grounds, setting records along the way, whether it’s the prolific striped marlin of Mag Bay, monster yellowfin tuna in Puerta Vallarta, astronomical numbers of sailfish in Guatemala, or the untapped waters off El Salvador and Nicaragua. How about Tropic Star in your own boat? It’s all do-able and all without the financial exposure and operational pitfalls that come with wholly owning and managing a first-class sport-fishing operation.

The goal is to provide each owner with the boating/fishing/vacation experience that he or she desires. All you need to do is inform the captain of your fishing or boating pleasures and he will be ready to put you and your guests on the action. We have outfitted the Release 46 to be able to fully take advantage of any trolling, bottom fishing or snorkeling opportunity that arises.

The Release 46 is offering a fractional ownership plan unlike any ever offered before. Our ownership is set up to take advantage of best sport fishing in the Eastern Pacific at the optimal times for a fraction of the cost and without the hidden financial, personnel, maintenance, outfitting, logistical and management unknowns that comes solely owning a world-class traveling sport-fishing operation. We have assembled a detailed fractional ownership plan that will provide you 50 days of fishing in the best locations there are.

What makes this plan different then ones you may have taken advantage of for private air travel and vacation homes is the builder will actually be the managing owner. We are using hard-cost numbers that we have found to be accurate throughout years of traveling the Caribbean and Pacific. This, coupled with our years of experience running the Casa Vieja Lodge and its fleet of eight classic boats, make us uniquely qualified to manage this program. The bottom line is that this is a very cost effective way to fish these waters with this caliber of crew, tackle and yacht. It is also a great way to spend time at some magnificent destinations.

**Release 46
**The Release 46 features a true walkaround design, with a wide, deep, one-level alley running completely around her, with no steps up or down from the cockpit to trip up an angler or deckhand as they work their way from stern to bow. It’s a design that’s inherently safer than more traditional models, a true marriage of form and function.

And she’s also beautiful. From her teak-capped unbroken sheer and curved transom tumblehome to the classic lines reminiscent of the finest by Merritt and Rybovich, this boat is a real head-turner. And while the lines hearken back to the finest classics of yesteryear, this one’s all high-tech beneath the skin. She’s constructed of a resin-infused hull using multi-directional fabrics including Kevlar and vinylester resins and Corecell core in the hull, with carbon fiber in the stringers for increased strength and rigidity. She’s a strong, lightweight performer that’s built to run hard in the world’s toughest conditions.

Another highlight of this revolutionary model is the use of new pod-drive power packages in a hull design specifically created to take full advantage of the unique benefits that pods provide over traditional shaft-and-rudder boats. A pair of Cummins QSM11 715hp diesels paired with Zeus drives gives the Release 46 jaw-dropping performance, both in terms of fuel efficiency, speed and maneuverability. At a cruise of 2,000 RPMs she’s making 30 knots and burning approximately 42 gallons per hour, depending on the fuel load and sea conditions, with a top end of nearly 38 knots.
