I moved to Panama City several years ago and started off as a deckhand. I soon realized how much I enjoyed showing friends and families a great time on the water while they are here for vacation. I decided after a few years that I would purchase and run my own tour boat business. We now offer several different private group tours for sightseeing and deep-sea fishing. I look forward to having you aboard! ~GR
