Captain Matthew
Born and raised along the shores of Lake Michigan, Matt’s lifelong connection to the water began at an early age. His childhood summers were spent sailing and powerboating with family and friends across the Great Lakes and surrounding inland waters. A pivotal year spent sailing the East Coast and Bahamas with his family sparked a deeper love for the ocean - one that would go on to shape his life and career.

Since then, Matt has spent countless years boating and sailing the East Coast and Caribbean, with extensive time on the Chesapeake Bay, the Puget Sound, and the waters surrounding the Big Island of Hawai‘i. For the past five years, he has worked professionally as a boat captain in Hawai‘i, refining his skills and sharing his love for the ocean with others.

With a lifetime of experience on the water, Matt feels most at home at sea. His calm presence, adventurous spirit, and deep respect for the ocean shine through in every charter. He holds scuba certification and enjoys a wide range of outdoor activities, including freediving, spearfishing, biking, surfing, running, hiking, and yoga.

Always in search of the next adventure, Captain Matt is committed to creating a safe, fun, and unforgettable experience for every guest who steps aboard.
