Licensed Captain Services in Naples and
Southwest Florida

Owning a boat and wanting to run it every time aren’t the same thing.

Sometimes the vessel needs to move and you don’t. Sometimes there are twelve guests aboard and you’d rather be with them. Sometimes the water is unfamiliar, the boat is new, or the day is long, and the right call is to have a professional at the helm.

We provide licensed captains on a scheduled or as-needed basis, and for managed vessels the same captains become familiar faces who know the boat.

Anchor icon

Local knowledge.

Southwest Florida’s passes, shoaling, bridge schedules, and seasonal traffic are learned over years, not from a chart.
Team icon

The same people.

For managed vessels and retained clients, we work to keep continuity. A captain who already knows your boat and your preferences is worth considerably more than one who doesn’t.
Vessel care icon

Care for the vessel.

Our captains return the boat clean, fueled, and properly secured. How a boat is handled matters as much as where it goes.

Common questions
