Stephen brings his passion to every trip with a focus on ensuring everyone on board is having a fun, safe day on the water.

8 Hour Trip
Just got in Monday night and refund was in my account. Captain told us it was safer to cancel our trip and get a refund. Although we were disappointed we couldn’t go on the charter trip we had planned for almost a year, the Captain was more concerned for our safety. We knew he wasn’t kidding when some boats that went out came back before we left the marina. They then came over the speaker system and canceled all 10 hour trips. Thanks, Cap for keeping us safe!
