Private custom charters to the best wrecks, ledges, springs & rock piles... specializing in spearfishing for scuba & freediving.

Fast 36' x 13.5' 6-pack dive boat - Experienced Capt & Dive Instructor, (over 30 years.) St Pete Native.

Scuba divers often make multiple drops per tank & freedivers can dive until they drop!

Unique dive sites: The Pipeline Motherload, Danny Boy, Crackerjack Shrimper, Steel Wreck, 40' Shrimper, Long Island, Green Banana, Fish Bowl, Boxcars, Yellowfin, South Spring, C-47, Pride Sink, Jack Hole, 155 Wreck, 165 Wreck, Pot Holes, Grand Slam Cave, and many deep private ledges & pot holes. (Many of these are long range sites are in technical depths, so divers will need proper certification, experience and gear for them. Divers often train with me on site.)

Recreational favorite sites: Blackthorn, Sheridan, Seafood Barge, Orange Tug, Betty Rose, Gunsmoke, Tramp Steamer, LSN's, Salt Hopper, Rube Allyn, Doc's Barge, Nohab (South Jack Wreck), Sulfur Barge, Mexican Pride, Pillsbury, TI2 Shrimper, Fin Barge, and Anclote Tug & Barge and tons of natural ledges on the 10 & 20 fathom lines.

Check my website: Florida Skin Diver Charters for lots of boat, fish & artifact photos & stories.

I'm now booking individuals!

My style of 3 tank trip - a drift dive trip - no anchoring - 1/2 the boat at a time, 3 divers on each drop - 6 to 12 dive sites - up to 2 sites per tank - and lot's of fish! Florida Skin Diver Charters

Not the typical "2 dive - burn your whole tank - just 2 sites - then swim back to the boat."

I've only booked privately, but I'm starting a new policy:

I'll book individuals - and run with 4 to 6 divers:
1. Rate for up to 25 nautical miles offshore (about 85 ft max.) = $119.95 each
2. Rate for up to 18 nautical miles offshore (about 65 ft max.) = $99.95 each

If any group wants to book the whole boat for 6 divers:
1. Rate for up to 25 n. miles drops to $600 (99.95 each if full)
2. Rate for up to 18 n. miles drops to $540 ($89.95 each if full)

Spacious 36' x 13.5' custom dive boat, full wind and rain protection, smooth riding 21 knot cruise speed, new Hot Water Deck Shower, and over 30 years experienced local dive captain/instructor.
