Captain
Madeline Rittich-Watts

Member since October 2024 Orange Beach, United States

Background: Maddie Rittich-Watts is a true Orange Beach, AL native, born and raised on the water. Growing up, she developed a deep passion for fishing and was involved in nearly every water sport imaginable. At just 15 years old, Maddie decided to turn her love for fishing into a career, securing a job as a mate on a fishing charter boat. Over the next seven years, she gained experience working on multiple charter boats and privately owned vessels. In 2021, Maddie earned her USCG 100 Ton Captain’s License, becoming a second-generation captain. Though leaving the fishing community in 2023 was a difficult decision, Maddie was excited to take a leap of faith toward her dream of owning a business on the water. She looks forward to welcoming you aboard and helping create unforgettable memories that will last a lifetime!
