⚓ WHEN PLAN A CHANGES, EXPERIENCE BUILDS PLAN B.

Sometimes in marine transport, logistics and planning don't always unfold exactly as anticipated. Vessel dimensions, weight, trailer configuration, equipment requirements, or other circumstances can require the original transport plan to be reassessed.

That's where experience and the ability to develop an alternative solution become important.

🚛 At Waypoint Nautical Solutions, our responsibility isn't simply to get a vessel from Point A to Point B. It's to evaluate the transport, recognize when a change is necessary, and coordinate an appropriate solution to move our client's vessel safely and efficiently.

🔄Assess. Adapt. Coordinate. Execute.

Our clients shouldn't have to manage the stress of finding alternative equipment, coordinating multiple parties, or figuring out the next step when circumstances change. That's part of the logistics service we provide.

Whether we're working with an owner-supplied trailer, coordinating specialized equipment, or developing an alternative transport plan, Waypoint Nautical Solutions remains focused on the same objective:

⚓ The right equipment. The right plan. A safe transport.

⚓🇺🇸 15 YEARS CREDENTIALED | THIRD ISSUE RENEWAL 🇺🇸 ⚓

Proud to mark another professional milestone with the renewal and third issuance of my United States Coast Guard Merchant Mariner Credential. 🎖️⚓

For 15 years, maintaining a USCG Merchant Mariner Credential has represented much more than holding a license. It represents continued sea service, professional training, regulatory compliance, and the responsibility that comes with operating vessels safely and professionally. 🌊 🧭

My renewed credential continues to reflect the foundation of my maritime career, including Master of Towing Vessels upon Near Coastal Waters and Western Rivers, along with STCW qualifications that include Master Limited to Towing Vessels of Less Than 300 GRT on Near-Coastal Voyages, Basic Training, Vessel Security Officer, and additional security endorsements. 📜⚓🔒

Behind those credentials are years spent working on the water commercial vessel operations, towing, offshore and inland marine logistics, vessel delivery, and thousands of nautical miles navigating the waterways that helped shape the mariner and business owner I am today. 🚤 🌅📍

⚓ That experience is also the foundation of Waypoint Nautical Solutions.

Whether entrusted with a client's vessel for a delivery, providing professional captain services for a vessel survey & deliveries, training a new boat owner, managing a vessel, or coordinating specialized marine transport, the principles remain the same:

Safety. Preparation. Sound judgment. Professionalism. ✔️🛡️🧭

A credential can document qualifications, but maintaining it over a career represents something greater—the continued responsibility to uphold the standards that come with being a professional mariner.

✅15 years credentialed.
✅Third issue renewed.
✅And still proud to earn the responsibility that comes with being called Captain. 👨‍✈️⚓

⚓ PROFESSIONAL VESSEL SURVEY CAPTAIN SERVICES ⚓

Have a vessel scheduled for a marine survey or sea trial and need an experienced captain at the helm?

Waypoint Nautical Solutions provides professional captain services for yacht brokers, buyers, sellers, and vessel owners who need a qualified operator during the survey and sea-trial process.

A marine survey requires more than getting the vessel away from the dock. The captain may be called upon to safely maneuver the vessel, operate onboard systems, perform requested engine and vessel maneuvers, and coordinate with the marine surveyor throughout the sea trial—all while maintaining the safe operation of the vessel.

At Waypoint Nautical Solutions, we provide an experienced professional mariner so the surveyor can focus on the inspection, the broker can focus on the transaction, and the buyer and seller can focus on making informed decisions.

✅ Professional vessel operation during surveys
✅ Sea-trial and maneuvering support
✅ Vessel systems operation and demonstration
✅ Coordination with marine surveyors and brokers
✅ Available for buyers, sellers, brokers, and vessel owners
✅ Additional representation or support available by special request

Whether you're a broker coordinating an upcoming survey, a seller who needs a qualified captain, or a buyer preparing for a sea trial, Waypoint Nautical Solutions is ready to help keep the process professional, organized, and safe.

Waypoint Nautical Solutions
Your Trusted Solution for All Things Nautical.

⚓Safety isn't just part of the job — it's the standard. ⚓

As a 300-ton Master of Towing near coastal and western rivers U.S. Coast Guard credentialed Merchant Mariner Captain, maintaining professional competency means more than simply renewing a license. It means continuing to train, demonstrate proficiency, and remain prepared for the situations we hope never happen on the water.

📋As part of the ongoing renewal for a third issue and compliance requirements for my U.S. Coast Guard Merchant Mariner Credential, I recently completed the USCG-Approved STCW Basic Training Revalidation (FMTCTR-718) through M & A Safety Services/FMTC

🔥🌊The hands-on revalidation included practical training and assessment in marine firefighting and water survival techniques reinforcing the skills necessary to respond when conditions become anything but routine.

⚓At Waypoint Nautical Solutions, safety is not simply something we advertise to our clients. It is incorporated into how we operate.

Whether entrusted with a vessel delivery, captain service, owner training, vessel management, or marine transport operation, maintaining professional credentials and continuing competency is part of the responsibility that comes with being a professional mariner.

🧭Experience matters. Training matters. Preparation matters.

When a client places their vessel, passengers, or operation in our hands, they deserve to know that the captain they hired continues to invest in the training and professional standards behind that responsibility.
Maintaining professional credentials is only part of the responsibility. Maintaining the skills behind those credentials is what matters on the water!!

Professional Maritime Experience. Safety-Driven Service. Trusted on the Water.

Waypoint Nautical Solutions would like to send a special thanks to the staff and instructors FMTC Safety in Houma, LA!

⚓️ SOLD!! | 2023 Chris-Craft Calypso 35 🛥️

I am proud to officially announce the sale of this beautiful 2023 Chris-Craft Calypso 35!

A sincere thank you to the sellers and to the Wise family for trusting me to assist both sides throughout the sale and purchase of this vessel. It was an honor—and truly humbling—to represent and serve both parties through this transaction.

This one is especially meaningful because it marks my first completed yacht brokerage sale.

There were certainly some challenging, tense, and emotional moments along the way, but I would not have traded the experience for anything. This transaction taught me a great deal about patience, communication, persistence, and, most importantly, the value of building trusted relationships with clients.

My career in the commercial maritime industry, combined with my experience as an entrepreneur, has helped prepare and shape me for this next chapter. Yacht sales is about much more than selling a boat—it is about understanding the vessel, understanding the people involved, and helping both parties navigate the process from the initial conversation through closing.

I also want to thank Palm Beach Yacht Sales for recognizing my potential and giving me the opportunity to join their team and continue developing within the yacht brokerage industry.

Bringing together Waypoint Nautical Solutions and Florida Yacht Sales was a natural progression. From professional captain services, vessel delivery, transportation, and owner training to yacht sales and acquisition, the goal remains the same: providing clients with knowledgeable, professional, and personalized solutions for their boating needs.

If you are considering buying or selling a new or pre-owned vessel, I would be honored to earn your business and help you navigate the process.
