Can you give everyone a little more info about yourselves? You have one post here and a google search on 'Nauticat Charters' turns up nothing.

Who are you?
Experience?
How long have you been kiting? Do you kite?
Do you have a Captains License?
What kind of vessel or boat are you running?

Thanks

My kites are Black,
like my pounding heart-

The question ought to be;
Captain! How much can you drink??

For me and my mates are taking over the helm,
of, This fine vessel---

and it will be YOU walk'n the yard-board..
from here on out-

Hey, Nautical Charters is run by Chris who is a kiter out at Sherman. He has kited a few years, has his captains license and uses a 23ft +/- Four Winns to get you up there.

They normally have there motorhome near the ramp at Sherman. I've gone up there with him before and he is pretty safe.

That's good to know. When posting, a little info is helpful to vet "new" outfits so people can get a sense of if they are legit or not.

I've got a Captains permit(?), up to 44' twin screw last time I checked- Done more time behind the wheel then I can remember...

Been thrashed and thrown about, had one of my engines give out.
My mates were hugging the rails- :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
Thought we were near'n the end- :o :o
but I pulled her about, surfed it right out.... :D :D :D
and we made it around the cape of big charley!! :doh: (I think thats how it goes) :think: :think:
(old Captains poem, sorry!) :liar: :liar: :liar: :liar:

Actually thats not far from the truth-

I've done downwinders with Chris & Heather (when Nat from Edge Kiteboarding is already out teaching and not available).

They're really nice people and Chris is a solid kiter and boat driver.
