Santana Fleet

We were given the choice of all of the Santana yachts from which to select the primary offering for this season. After careful examination of each facility, we settled on the Belle Amazon as the best for our clients. All of the rooms are on the two main decks. There are 8 double rooms with staggered bunk beds and a VIP suite with a king size bed enough to accommodate 18 clients. Each has a private bath and is fully air conditioned. The kitchen and dining area are on the main deck with seating for all clients to join together at a single table. On the upper deck is a Media Room for your entertainment pleasure, a bar for your refreshment, and an open deck to enjoy the moonlight and the stars.

On board you will be attended by our host, Harry, and Daniel, our Camp Manager. Our resident nurse will be present for any medical needs you might have. You will enjoy the luxury of a sit-down dinner each night - served with your choice of wine, beer or any non-alcoholic drinks. After dinner, you can retire to the upper deck where Harry will take your favorite liquor and mix you the drinks of your choice. You will have Satellite TV to watch plus some interesting movies on the DVD. There will be a satellite phone available for emergencies for a small fee.

You will fish from our specially designed aluminum boats equipped with 50 HP, 4 stroke, Suzuki engines. The fishing boats are 18' in length and have large casting platforms both front and rear. In addition, you can enjoy the swivel seats that are standard when you need a break from standing.

And best of all, you will get to enjoy this luxury with an American Outfitter than understands the desires of his clients and who fishes the areas extensively himself so that you have the best information available about fishing conditions and water levels. You can depend on this operator to advise you of current conditions prior to your trip so that if conditions are not right you will get the option to continue your trip or to postpone your trip until better conditions exist.

The cost of this trip is the same as last season: $4,950/angler, and the trip will be limited to a maximum of 18 anglers. Price Includes all rods, 7 reels & lures.

For the experience of a lifetime, HawgHunter welcomes you aboard The Santana Yacht Line for an exotic Peacock Bass fishing trip.

The Santana Yacht Line runs the two most modern, luxurious live-aboard yachts on the Amazon: the 100-foot Santana I and the 135-foot Amazon Santana. The impressive vessels have six double suites and two double Master Suites each with its own bath, with a level of service and amenities normally associated only with luxury hotels. Aboard the yachts, you don't have to forsake your comfort to experience the legendary explosive strikes and tackle busting power of the Amazon's native Peacock Bass.

Amazon Amenities

The Santana Yacht Line was designed and built in the Amazon making it ideally suited as a home base for exploring and fishing in the Amazon region. With a draft over a meter shallower than most of the other fishing hotel boats serving the area, the boats can travel in areas that others can't get to during the low water (prime fishing time).

Amenities include zone air conditioning in all rooms and cabins, washer and dryer, sauna, three separate Jacuzzi baths, room to room telephones, satellite telephone, fax and Internet hookups, in cabin stereo, two master suites that are unbelievable, and an entertainment room equipped with satellite TV,stereo, DVD, VCR, e-mail and Internet.

Electronics include two types of communications radios (VHF & SSB), the most modern LowranceX-15 mapping and GPS system, radar, sonar. The entire ship is appointed in handcrafted mahogany. The beautiful and spacious dining room, upper deck main salon and aft deck open air bar are favorite gathering places for guests after a day of fishing or exploring the Amazon Rainforest.

While the Amazon Santana and Santana I provide the best accommodations in the jungle, you can rest assured that you will be fishing with the very best Peacock bass guides in the Amazon as well. We know the most important aspect of your fishing trip is catching fish. We have signed new contracts with who we believe to be the eight best Peacock bass guides in the Amazon.
