Trigana, based in the beautiful unspoiled little town of Alvor, began her life in a shipyard in Lisbon sixty years ago in 1947, and was originally designed as an offshore cargo vessel, carrying goods such as wheat (trigo) and barley plus a girls name (Anna) yes, that's where her name came from.

With a little help, the present owner Toby Marshall purchased and completely renovated Trigana, fitting her out as a spacious passenger carrying sailing boat.

In 2007 Toby heard about the only other boat of Trigana's class in the south of Portugal "Formosa" and was lucky enough to purchase her, and rename her "Jessica Liliana" after Toby's daughters Jessica and Lily, so now her sister ship affectionately known as Jessica Lily, will be working alongside Trigana.

This year Trigana and her sister ship Jessica Lily will be working as usual, putting smiles on the faces of children both young and old.
We do six trips a day, everything, from morning fishing trips to sightseeing trips, to sunset fishing trips complete with free sparkling wine.

Our fishing trips this year we know will be spectacular as we have managed to enlist the help in the form of a new skipper, one of the most respected and experienced Alvor trawler captains.
We recommend you book well in advance.
