Your Captain
Licensed, local, and passionate
Your charter will most likely be captained by Capt. Noah DeBickero, owner and operator of Teal Tide Sailing and a U.S. Coast Guard-licensed 100 Ton Master. Noah lives and sails these waters year-round and knows every channel, sandbar, and sunset angle on Tampa Bay.
Occasionally, your charter may be led by one of our other USCG-licensed captains, including Capt. Richie Mahoney (1600/3000 Ton Master) or Capt. Michael Martin (100 Ton Master). Every captain on our crew meets the same standard of professionalism, local expertise, and genuine hospitality.
