Meet The Captain
Hey Folks! It’s Captain Ted. I’m an Appalachian State and UNCW (MBA) graduate and I’ve been around the Cape Fear Region my entire life. I am a USCG Master Licensed Captain with more than 20 years of experience on boats up to 90 feet. I started this business because my best memories are out on the water with my mom and dad, and want to give that experience to others. I'm excited to have you on board!
