He applies these principles to his business, ensuring that every aspect of each charter is top-notch, from the equipment to the customer service.

THE BOAT

“WarChild” is a 28’ Contender center console powered by twin Yamaha F200’s, making traveling to the best spots fast and easy.

The composite cored, deep-V hull with 25 degrees of transom deadrise and a sharp angle of entry at the bow makes quick work of harsh offshore conditions. Passengers will enjoy a smooth, safe, and dry ride with surprising stability not usually found in boats this size. The additions of a full curtain enclosure and a spot lock trolling motor add to the comfortability and fishability of the boat.

She’s equipped with top-of-the-line Garmin electronics and radar, VHF, EPIRB, satellite phone, life jackets, flares, and marine bean bags.

What my customers have to say

  • "What a great day on the water. Captain Will is great. His personality is pleasant. He was awesome with our teenage boys. He made them feel comfortable. He showed them the equipment he uses to find fishing spots and fish. He made their entire day fun. He also put us on lots of keeper fish. We were hoping to catch a few keepers. Instead. We never stopped catching fish and came home with enough fish for several meals. We have taken several charters and Captain Will is the best. He definitely created a memory for my two 13 year old boys that they will talk about many times throughout their life time."
