They do it in smaller boats all the time. I fished in a friends boat out of Kapaa on the East side of the island. It was a small 23'-24' trailered boat (in my pics folder on this site). Guy is a Fireman on the island and commercial fishes for the local restaurants on his off days. We were 7 miles offshore in 7,200' of water. There was also a guy named "Reilly" fishing out there in a 17' Whaler!!!
Had a banner day. It was just me and him and I did all the fighting. Huge Oceanic Black Tip, Blue Marlin, Wahoo, Yellow Fin & Skip Jacks. Only thing we missed out on was a Mahi.
Even better that I got to sneak off for a day during my Honeymoon!!
