About your Captain

Picture
About your USCG Captain, Jeff Nourse,    I was born and raised on Lake Superior.  My Grandfather and Grandmother ran a resort and fish camp on Rocky Island from 1941 to 1974. I have spent much time in the islands as my Father is also a Captain and so is his brother and his son, not to mention the rest of the uncles that ran fishing boats, research vessels,  touring  and water taxi services.  I have been navigating these waters on my own for the past 35 years either fishing, exploring or just riding the waves

The Island hopping boat....

The boat is a Wellcraft Genesis Mini Yacht.  Its fiberglass hull with  an "air-slot" design very similar to a Boston Whaler.  It is extremely stable and with the forward seating provides a smooth ride. Also added a Kayak Rack to get you and your Kayak to any island in the park
