Shogun Crew Profile:

Captain: Mike Finnegan

Mike grew up in New England living and working on the coast of Maine. His experience on the water began at an early age commercial fishing for lobster and Blue Fin Tuna in the gulf of Maine. Since then, Mike has worked on a diverse selection of vessels including privately owned yachts, charter fishing boats, and commercial vessels. Mike’s great passion for fishing has led him to fish both recreationally and professionally along much of the East Coast from Nova Scotia to the Bahamas targeting a variety of different species. While working in the commercial field Mike spent much of his time on high-speed supply boats servicing the deep water offshore oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico. Mike graduated from Maine Maritime Academy with a degree in vessel operations. Mike has been with M/Y SHOGUN since October of 2007, traveling between Manzanillo, Mexico and Glacier Bay, Alaska.

In the rare occasion that Mike hits the mainland he enjoys fishing, working on boats and is an avid downhill skier.

Mike’s broad maritime experience coupled with his strong work ethic and positive attitude will ensure your voyage aboard the M/Y SHOGUN is an exciting and memorable adventure.
