YOUR PRIVATE CAPTAIN
Our Boat, or yours
(YEAR-ROUND)
Southwest Florida is an obvious magnet for people from all over--many of us come to vacation and decide to never leave! But when you do make our local waters your new home, you're going to want the right person to show you around.
LEARN THE LOCAL WATERWAYS
The intricacies of the Intracoastal, the many passes to the Gulf (Stump Pass, Gasparilla Pass and Boca Grande Pass just to name a few), the endless flats, and the numerous coves, offer everything a boater or fisherman could want, but not without a few conditions. What makes the area so spectacular and rich in wildlife may also cause some trying times for a new boater.
Let Captain Tom McLaughlin show you where to dine, where the best fishing may be found, what kind of wildlife to expect, how to avoid common missteps, and pretty much anything else you want to know. Learn everything about the waters of Southwest Florida in one afternoon instead of the years it could take to learn it on your own--just think of the fuel and hours on your boat you'll save!
NEW BOAT?
Did you just get a new beauty and need a Captain to help instruct you on proper boating techniques? Captain Tom does that too! He is experienced on single and twin engine, inboard, and outboard boats and is able to help you with common boating etiquette and techniques. No one wants to look like a novice out there!
NO WORRIES
Operating your boat isn't fun for everyone. If you've ever wanted to take the day off and relax with the family or party with your friends, take advantage of Captain Tom's years of experience with a wide range of vessels. He is a licensed Master of 50 Tons Captain who can provide you with a safe and scenic cruise to anywhere you want to go!
