Background
The boat name Dauntless, with skeleton/mermaid graphic, is an illustration representing living your best life. I help others live theirs while living my own, combining my professional background with a love of the water, lifetime experience boating, and enjoyment for fishing to make memorable experiences for my guests. I originally came to the Florida Keys to expand my business, including buying a larger boat for chartering and to more fully enjoy being out on the water.
