Meet The Crew
Our experienced, local captains and crew are dedicated to providing a safe, relaxing, and memorable small-group sailing experience on Florida's Space Coast.
Your Local Captains
Every Cocoa Beach Catamaran sail is guided by a USCG-licensed captain with extensive knowledge of the Indian River Lagoon, local wildlife, and sailing.
Captain Brian
Owner / Captain
Captain Brian is the guy who turned a love of sailing into a way of life. If there’s a dolphin within a mile of the boat, he’ll probably spot it before anyone else. Known for his laid-back attitude, local knowledge, and occasional bad dad jokes, Brian loves sharing the beauty of the Indian River Lagoon while making every trip feel like an afternoon on the water with friends.
Captain Kris
Captain
Part sailor, part wildlife spotter, part professional troublemaker, Captain Kris keeps things fun from the moment you step aboard. Whether he’s pointing out dolphins, sharing local stories, or teaching guests a thing or two about sailing, his goal is simple: make sure you leave with great memories and a camera roll full of photos. Sunglasses are mandatory. Good vibes are guaranteed.
Captain Nate
Captain
Captain Nate believes the best days start with sunshine, salt air, and a boat leaving the dock. Friendly, easygoing, and always ready for an adventure, he loves helping guests experience the Lagoon from a local’s perspective. From playful dolphins to stunning sunsets, Nate knows how to find the moments that turn a boat ride into the highlight of your vacation.

Josh
Owner / Backend Wizard
While the captains get all the glory, Josh is usually the guy behind the scenes making sure everything actually works. From websites and booking systems to marketing, automation, and the endless stream of behind-the-scenes details that keep the business running, he's the one pulling the levers so the boats can keep sailing. A lifelong entrepreneur with a passion for creating great guest experiences, Josh believes the best tour businesses combine authentic hospitality with smart technology. When he's not working on Cocoa Beach Catamaran, you'll probably find him brainstorming the next big idea, chasing his kids around, or convincing himself that buying another boat is a good business decision.
