Captain Michael Potts has been fishing his entire life. During the sixties his mother would take him along to ride shotgun in her airplane while she spotted swordfish for Michael's father George and Uncle John on their third boat, the Blue Fin. The Blue Fin was custom built for the Potts brothers in 1954 in Maine.
They had been operating a charter boat as partners since 1944. By the time Michael was 10 years old, he had steady work on the Blue Fin and other boats, and in those days sold many fish off the dock to customers who wanted fresh fish for dinner. The family bought a 41' boat that was custom built in Greenport, LI, for charter fishing in Montauk.
