About Total Package Charters
Total Package Charters operates a custom 44-foot charter vessel out of Pensacola Beach Marina, accommodating up to 23 anglers on deep-sea and offshore fishing trips in the Gulf of Mexico. Captain Sean Kelley runs the operation from slip 29 on the south side of the marina, right next to the fuel dock and just past the Bob Sikes Bridge toll booth.
Their bread and butter is red snapper season — running from June through mid-September under the federal for-hire allocation — but the calendar stays busy year-round with trips targeting grouper, amberjack, king mackerel, cobia, and triggerfish on the natural ledges and artificial reefs scattered across the Gulf floor. The large vessel means groups, families, and corporate outings can book without splitting across multiple boats, and all tackle, bait, and ice are included in the trip price.
The 44-footer gives Total Package a range and capacity advantage over the smaller centre-console charters that dominate the Pensacola fleet. Rougher days that keep 25-footers at the dock are still fishable on a vessel this size, which means fewer weather cancellations and more time on the water for visiting anglers who may only have one or two days to fish.
