Experience After Delivery

Built Around How You Actually Use the Boat

There is a difference between knowing what options exist and knowing how they get used on the water.

Shane Toole has nearly 20 years of professional fishing experience in Orange Beach, currently captains a 47-foot Freeman, and has logged 5,000+ hours aboard Freeman boats — a practical perspective to draw on during a build. Whether you're planning a boat for:

Offshore tournament fishing
Blue marlin fishing
Swordfishing
Tuna fishing
Bottom fishing
Family cruising
Sandbar and recreational use
Long-range offshore trips

We'll help you think through how the boat should be configured before the build is finalized.
