The CONDOR is an 88ft. all steel vessel which has been in service in Santa Barbara since it was launched in 1978. It is generally considered to be one of the finest vessels of it's type. The vessel has been retrofitted with a "dolphin bow" for exceptionally smooth riding characteristics.



The following is a run-down of the boat's qualifications:

  • Coast Guard Inspected and Certified to carry up to 75 passengers 100 miles offshore and up to 125 passengers 20 miles offshore, but should be considered for smaller groups who want safety, comfort and facilities that only a vessel with CONDOR's size and equipment can provide.
  • All passengers are able to fit inside in case of inclement weather

  • Galley-Capable of serving full meals to 125 passengers. The galley includes a full cocktail bar and is large enough to seat 45 persons comfortably. Food service may be arranged for individual menu orders. Catering, including everything from light-snacks and box lunches to a full sit-down-dinner, is also available.
  • Power-Twin 8V92TA Detroit Diesels (400 HP each). The CONDOR is proud to be running low-polluting, whisper-quiet, electronically controlled diesel engines. These engines were adapted for this boat under a cooperative government-industry partnership called the "Clean Fuels and Energy Demonstration Program" These "smokeless diesels" reduce air pollution by 14 tons per year, and increase fuel efficiency by 10-25%
