Meet Your Captain, Scott Pracht
With over 40 years’ boating experience and decades on Tampa Bay including time in the Sheriff’s Marine Unit, I know Tampa Bay, and I know safe boating. I offer safe, memorable boat charters on the waters of Tampa Bay.
I’m originally from Long Beach, NY and moved to the Tampa Bay area in 1997. I started boating when I was 15 years old and love everything about it. I love being on, under, and around the water.
I retired as a deputy with the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office where I worked on the Sheriff’s Office Marine Unit for several years. I have extensive training in the marine environment, which makes me appreciate the water even more. With all the training and experience in boating throughout the years, I can make your charter safe and enjoyable.
I Know Tampa Bay, I Know Boating Safety
The bottom line: I know Tampa Bay, where we can go and where we can’t go. And I have a keen understanding of safety and how to operate a boat safely on local waters.
Years of Training on Tampa Bay
I have years of training on Tampa Bay with the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office, and law enforcement training always includes safety as a top priority.
While not directly related to boat charters, some the training included Commercial Vessel Boarding FLETC, Port Securty-FLETC, Personal Watercraft MacDill Airforce Training, and Law Enforcement Airboat Training.
