Leg 1
Miami → Bimini
Clearing in at Bimini
Left Miami at 7am and tied up in Bimini by 10:30. Straight to immigration, then customs, and the boat was cleared in the same morning.
Yacht management · Captains on call · Engineering & repairs · Boat transport
A small crew of captains who check on your boat every week, keep the maintenance on track, and take the helm whenever you want to go out. You get a full crew's care without paying for full-time crew.
Who it's for
Your boat sits most of the week, then you want to go out at short notice. We keep it ready between trips, catch problems early, and send a captain when you call. One team, one number, one monthly plan.
Services
Pick a management plan, add a captain when you need one, or book a single transport. Every job is quoted by vessel and schedule.
We visit your boat on a set schedule and check it over:
Text us when you want to go out and one of our captains takes the helm. Day trips, weekends, island runs, or relief when your regular captain is off.
We book and oversee detailing, bottom cleaning, engine service and repairs, and check the work before we sign off. You get one update instead of five phone calls.
We move your boat by water between marinas, along the Florida coast or to the Bahamas, with engines watched the whole way and a systems report at handover.
Engineering & repairs
Oscar is finishing the Marine Engineering program at Broward College and handles repairs across the boat and its toys. When the crew that runs your boat can also fix it, you get less downtime and fewer outside invoices.
Marine AC units, raw-water pumps and strainers, cooling problems traced and fixed.
Batteries, chargers, shore power, DC and AC circuits, and electrical faults like a swim platform that won't lift.
Engines, generators, pumps and impellers, plus routine service between trips.
Zincs and anodes, bonding checks, and stopping corrosion before it gets expensive.
Fiberglass and gelcoat repairs, from dock rash to cracked panels.
Service and repair for jet skis, dinghies and outboards, so the toys work when guests want them.
Repairs are quoted per job. Text a photo of the problem to (305) 494-4153 for a fast first look.
Pricing
Two monthly plans that cover the boat and the captain, or book a captain by the hour.
For owners who go out now and then and plan trips ahead.
For owners who use the boat often or at short notice.
No mate needed? The rate stays the same, because the captain takes on the mate's duties: lines, fenders, deck and guests.
Priced by boat, route and distance: between marinas, along the Florida coast or to the Bahamas.
Getting started
Tell us about your boat, where she's kept and how often you use her.
We come aboard, go through every system and note anything that needs attention.
Part time at $4,000 a month or full time at $9,000, and we set your check schedule.
We keep her ready. When you want to go out, text us and a captain meets you at the dock.
The crew
Two brothers and their best friend. The same three people look after your boat and run it, so you always know who is aboard.
USCG 200-ton licensed captain. Finishing the Marine Engineering program at Broward College, and runs the engineering and repair side of every boat we manage.
USCG 50-ton licensed captain. Oscar's brother, and on call for owner trips and deliveries.
Oscar's best friend. Works aboard as crew and runs the deck, lines and guests. Finishing his captain's license now.
From the log
A recent multi-week owner trip, written up from my own log: Bimini, Nassau, the Exumas, Eleuthera, the Abacos and home from West End. It's the kind of trip we plan, run and maintain for owners.

Leg 1
Miami → Bimini
Left Miami at 7am and tied up in Bimini by 10:30. Straight to immigration, then customs, and the boat was cleared in the same morning.
Leg 2
Bimini → Nassau
The track we came in on had silted up. I tried two other marked tracks, found one with 8 ft of water and got us out. Then I ran south to cross the Great Bahama Bank for smaller swells.
Leg 3
Nassau · Atlantis
Called Nassau Harbour Control on channel 16, moved to 9 for clearance, then channel 10 for our slip at Atlantis. While fueling the next day I found the fuel vent clogged and opened both sides so the tank could breathe.
Leg 4
The Exumas
Highbourne Cay, then Norman's Cay at low tide (8 ft at the lowest) to anchor by the plane wreck. Moorings at Shroud Cay and Warderick Wells, where the marked channel is tight and shallow on both sides.
Leg 5
Staniel Cay
Our slip had a yacht on one side and 3 ft of water on the other, with the wind pushing us toward the yacht. I came in with enough speed that the wind couldn't set us, and docked clean.
Leg 6
Toward George Town
George Town meant crossing to the Atlantic side, where the swells were bigger, and we were towing the dinghy after a swim-platform problem. We turned around and stayed at Staniel. The safe call.
Leg 7
Staniel → Nassau
Calm day, 15 knots of wind from astern while we ran at 16 knots. Through the reef into Palm Cay, took on about 400 gallons, and left the yacht secured for a week while the owners flew home.
Leg 8
Eleuthera
Arrived with a dark cloud over the island, wind building and no visibility into the water. Worked through the reef entry, then left at high tide through Devil's Backbone.
Leg 9
The Abacos
Came in through the North Bar inlet. Hope Town's entrance is shallow, so we timed it for high tide. When the swim-platform electrics failed I raised the dinghy by hand pump and kept going.
Leg 10
West End → Miami
The next morning's forecast looked bad, so we crossed that afternoon. I routed around storms building on the way and brought her home at about 11pm, after roughly 13 hours at the helm.
