All of our professional guides are licensed by the Coast Guard and insured.

All vessels are in excellent condition and are equipped with operational marine VHF radios.

All vessels are equipped with Coast Guard approved personal floatation devices (PFD’s) for everyone on the boat. The Captain will tell you where they are.

All our Captains are knowledgeable of the fishing area and keep up with the ever changing weather conditions. Storms in Florida can be frightening, but our Captains are trained to handle unexpected weather.

Our Captains are responsible for the passengers in their vessels. Passengers are expected to follow their Captain’s instructions.

Passengers are asked to remain seated at all times when the vessel is underway.

Insects can be a nuisance. Each vessel will have insect repellant suitable for the area.

Passengers are encouraged to bring and use sunscreen. The Florida sun can burn you quickly, especially when you are out on the water.

All vessels will be equipped with coolers stocked with water, juice, snacks, and other things to make your fishing adventure not only enjoyable but safer. Dehydration can quickly develop in the humid heat of Florida.

Guests are encouraged to dress comfortably but to keep in mind that sun and insects can cause great aggravation. NHAES can provide suggestions on clothing or can furnish clothing as part of your package.
