Raised in a family of boaters, I developed a love of the water at a young age. Spending time as a child in the marshes behind my family’s Beach Haven home, I soon became fascinated with the back bays and estuaries of Long Beach Island and the adjacent mainland.

By the age of eight, I was beginning to be a regular on the family fishing boat. From flounder fishing in the bays and inlets to inshore and offshore trips for tuna, shark, bluefish and stripers, I became an experienced mariner and angler by the time I reached my pre-teen years.

Since then I have run large sport-fishing boats to the canyons, sailed from the Chesapeake to Bermuda, commercial fished for tuna and swordfish, sailed in a national championship, worked as a sailing instructor at a local boat rental facility and got my 100 TON USCG Masters License.

What I enjoy most is time on the water with family and friends. No two days are the same and even after thousands of hours on the water, I still discover something new on each trip. My goal is to help others enjoy the water the way I have. It’s my belief that if you feel comfortable with your skills and have a little local knowledge you will truly enjoy your days on the water.

It would be my pleasure to help you on your journey.

Fair Winds and Calm Seas,
