Elijah grew up in the small town of Smiths Station Alabama, a rural place where he spent his childhood riding dirt bikes, playing sports, and raising animals. He started yachting a couple of years ago after a customer of his auto mechanic shop who used to be an engineer on a 115’ sportfish, told him about his experience. Elijah was instantly hooked so after a few short months after that conversation, he sold everything and moved to South Florida to start school.

Elijah considers his greatest asset to be his great attitude and willingness to offer a helping hand to any department. He is dedicated to providing an unforgettable charter experience so guests return to their normal lives refreshed with great stories to tell for many years to come.

In the future, Elijah hopes to become captain of a 200’ + vessel. Outside of yachting, he would like to get his pilot's license. In his spare time, he enjoys all things on or in the water such as paddleboarding, diving, snorkeling, and water sports. Elijah is passionate about learning and finds himself searching for information until he feels he has a deep understanding of the subject.
