Owner/Capt Blair grew up exploring the waters of both the Delmarva Peninsula and the Hilton Head Island area since the late 70s. Taking friends and family on boating and fishing adventures turned into a lifelong passion, and in 1996 he turned it into a profession as he began guiding kayak tours on HHI. A few thousand kayakers and a few years later and he became a licensed boat captain, and by 2006 was running his own charter company. Blair now operates the flagship vessel, a Freeman 29 custom center console catamaran. She's a sleek vessel, a virtual "Ferrari of Fishing Boats" and he's excited to share a trip with you. Blair is not only a fishing guide but an engaging host with a wide knowledge of the local waterways and nature. After getting started with family and friends many decades ago, he still follows the same recipe:

"I treat every trip as if it were an outing with my own family." — Capt. Blair

Had a great experience out on the water with Captain Blair. He answered all my kids questions about sharks and fishing in the ocean. Ended up getting six fine tooth sharks.

Our fishing experience was 5 stars with Captain Blair; a perfect first time fishing for young kids who need a gentle, patient hand. Absolutely satisfied with the whole experience and will be doing again!
