You’re in great hands with our rotating crew of captains—each one a seasoned pro who’s been sailing Charleston’s waters for years, some for over two decades. They know these waters like the back of their hand, from the best dolphin-spotting spots to the history behind every landmark we pass. Our captains rotate through the schedule, so you might meet a different face each time you sail with us, but what stays the same is their love for the Lowcountry and their passion for sharing it with you. Whether it’s a fun fact about the harbor or a story from their years at sea, they’ve got plenty of local knowledge (and a few tall tales) to make your sail unforgettable. No matter who’s at the helm, you can count on a safe, laid-back, and memorable evening on the water.
