Captain Jerry

Captain Jerry caught the boating bug early, building some of his best childhood memories on his uncle’s boats in Michigan. By age 20, he bought his first Sea Ray powerboat and has since owned a Hunter sailboat and two award-winning antique wooden vessels.

After years as an avid sailor and bareboat charter captain navigating Lake Michigan, the Chicago skyline, and the Bahamas, Jerry brought his expertise south to Florida. Today, he crafts unforgettable charter experiences across Naples, Fort Myers, Marco Island, and the Isles of Capri. Known for his warm personality and intuitive hospitality, Jerry excels at reading the room—tailoring every excursion whether your group wants to tour Naples’ waterfront mansions or quietly explore pristine mangrove preserves.

“Every group brings a different energy. My goal is to listen, communicate, and customize the trip so it’s exactly what you dreamed of—whether that’s laid-back relaxation or an exciting eco-adventure.” — Capt. Jerry
