Whether you own, rent, or lease your boat, I’ll assume all captain’s responsibilities so you can relax and enjoy yourself. I am Coast Guard certified, a superior boat handler, and an expert of the Chicago-regional waters. My experience includes fourteen years professional boating with seven as a licensed captain. I’m skilled in operating a broad range of power vessels from small recreational crafts, to yachts, to tour boats carrying over 200 passengers. I am dedicated to the comfort and safety of passengers, and treat every boat with as much care as I would my own.

I am available for:

• Boat parties
• Fireworks cruises
• Lake-front concert cruises
• Boat-handling instruction
• Boat management, e.g. handling paperwork, maintenance schedules
• Fishing charters
• Boat delivery
• Overnight excursions

No Worries.
