About Me:

 I am a local charter captain born and raised in Venice, Florida.  I have grown up on or near the water most of my life. I love everything to do with the water from fishing to diving. I have three children all of which are divers .  I enjoy my days I am not chartering my boat, doing the same thing diving or fishing with my friends.

 

 I have been a Naui certified diver since 1995, I am CPR certified and Coast Guard Certified.

 About My Boat:

My boat is a 28 ft. Procat Catamaran, I have twin 250 Honda motors. We have both fresh and salt water wash downs and during the cooler months we have a hot water wash down. The cat is equipped to hold 18 dive tanks plus other required equipment.

Safety features:
 
ERIB, (Emergency Reckoning Information Beacon)
2 Fire Extinguishers
D-ring 

 About The Charters:

We are a bare bones charter, all divers must supply all gear including tanks. Rental of gear or tanks can be arranged in advance. Dives consist of 2 tanks, 1hr 30 minutes each dive during summer starting in March, winter months dive time is 1hr. each.  Water temp. during summer get as high as 86 degrees, winter as low as 50 degrees.  We must have a minimum of 3 divers for boat to go out.
 
We can customize times according to schedule and groups. Since we are a 6 pack charter, groups of more than 6 will have 6 divers do the morning dive, while remaining group does a beach dive and then they will switch in the afternoon.
 
We will have a cooler with cold water for divers, which also may be used to hold food or drinks. ABSOLUTELY NO ALCOHOL.
 
*** *** All divers must present a "Certification -Card" before coming on the boat.
