Are you ready for the complete kicked-back vacation?  Ask about a charter with all the amenities.  I’ll sail the boat and set you up with any gear you need.  I will lead you on kayak, snorkel and dive tours showing off the best of the natural life in the area.  At meals, you can choose your favorite foods or enjoy one of my great recipes.  Any whim I can fulfill, let me know and I’ll do my best. 

On these trips, I hope to spend a little longer time at sea.  We could visit Boca Grande or the Marquesas.  For overnight trips of up to three days, we can visit Man Key, Woman Key and Boca Grande.   These islands offer patch reefs for snorkeling, great beaches for hiking and miles of solitary kayaking.  The spots are far enough away from Key West that you will feel the privacy these amazing islands and waters have to offer.

In a 4-6 day trip, I can show you the Marquesas.  There you’ll get to enjoy the true privacy and pristine gifts of the western Florida Keys.  Anchored up off the lee side of the island, we may have a neighbor or two; cruisers and commercial fisherman find shelter on windy nights near the Marquesas, one of the Western hemisphere’s few atolls.  This is an extraordinary place with reefs and backcountry well out of the beaten path.  The beaches, the mangrove creeks, the lagoon and the coral certainly make this the best ecosystems of its kind  in North America.  It is by far the most pristine.
