F/V Bonnie Marietta
The Bonnie Marietta is a 38’ commercial Fishing Vessel (F/V) owned by Miss Bonnie and Captain Mark Tognazzini since its construction in 1981. Captain Mark has over three decades of experience in commercial fishing, passenger fishing, and ocean research. He fishes on the Bonnie Marietta during salmon and albacore seasons and skippers for research and support charters during other times of the year.

Fish Sales
In 1997, the commercial fishing family of Bonnie and Captain Mark Tognazzini pioneered consumer-direct fresh fish sales in Morro Bay. Even with the subsequent opening of their three Dockside restaurants (and fish market), Captain Mark continues to fish and conduct whole fish sales straight off the boat when he lands albacore and salmon in sufficient numbers.
Bonnie Marietta Charters
When not fishing for salmon or albacore, the Bonnie Marietta is available for research and support charters on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis, for the entire west coast. An owner-operated vessel can be a cost effective way to handle many ocean research needs. Captain Mark would be pleased to discuss the possibility of his participation in any of your projects.
