When it comes to people with special needs we have found that 3 things are important. One is the ability to get in and out of the boat, second is our compassion to those that need special attention and third is the quality of our gear and having aids on the boat for those that need them. Helping those with special needs is something we are good at and understand. No one needs to be concerned or embarrassed about any special need. We have been of help to the sick, the elderly, those with small children, the handicapped, non swimmers, those afraid of fish and more including those with bowel and bladder issues and many others that for whatever reason would benefit from, or be more relaxed on a private boat.
We ask that you inform us fully in order that we can determine if we can be of service.

The decision will depend on the nature of the need or disability. We cannot promise that we will take everyone that has a special need but we will do our best. Considerations are family support and our abilities.
People with special needs can be assured that Jolene and I will treat them with a mature level of care and understanding. We have taken great joy in this part of our business.
We are both certified in First Aid and CPR and are also ex dive instructors. We have a mature attitude and love helping people to enjoy and experience those trips that would be difficult on a boat filled with people they do not know.
Getting in and out of a boat for many had been problem. Struggling up a poorly designed ladder on a boat with people you do not know is not a pleasant experience and can be embarrassing. We have done our best to remove this obstacle. |

Our boat is a 26 foot MAKO and has two NEW Evinrude 200 Hp Engines. Ladder has wide steps and goes deep into the water to make entry into and out of the boat very easy. The boat is equipped with life jackets, VHF radio and we carry a cell phone with us. We also carry a full first Aid kit. We are both certified Dive Instructors, Medic First Aid Instructors and Dan Oxygen Instructors. |
