After spending a number of years back and forth between Alaska and Florida, Captain John decided to continue to do what he loves and in 2011 made the decision to open up Florida Airboat Excursions and run airboat tours so others could see the real beauty of inland Florida. During this time, he became close friends with Steve Hayes, the owner/operation of Stumpknocker Tours. Steve owned and operated Stumpknocker Tours from 1988 until he made the decision to retire, at which time he chose Captain John to take over his business in 2015.
There is nothing that Captain John enjoys more than being able to share with his customers a fun, educational ride with a local Florida native who has been on these waters his entire life! Feel free to ask him about how this area has changed, the people he has known (Beanie Backus, Mel Fisher - just to name a few), and his experiences in Alaska. But be careful, he may not stop talking!
