Wicked Tuna Boats, Their Captains, And Crews

Wicked Tuna Boat FV-Tuna.Com:

The captain of the Wicked tuna boat Fv-tuna.com is Captain Dave Carraro.

The FV-Tuna.com is the most hated of all the boats in all the Wicked Tuna boats. All the other teams do not like these boats. The boat was built in 2003 and it has a 38 foot high sheer Duffy that has been painted black. The boat is referred to as the black boat at times. Every fisherman that hunts for the Bluefin tuna in Massachusetts knows about this boat.

The reason for this is that it brings in one of the largest Tuna fish to shore. This makes all the other crews jealous.

Former Boats in Wicked Tuna.

The Bounty Hunter

If it does not perform the owner will have to sell it with time. The captain is Bill Monte

The Odysea
