Company description Enjoy beautiful and historic Pensacola on Florida`s Emerald Coast aboard the ``SEA SCOUT`` a 30` Island Hopper
Captain Lloyd
Captain Lloyd Oubre is a U.S. Coast Guard Licensed Captain and has been running dive charters in many different locations for over 10 years; on the Northern Gulf Coast of Florida, in Dominica West Indies, and in Key West and the Florida Keys.
A native of New Orleans, Lloyd is a former U.S. Army reconnaissance scout, has been a Dive Instructor since 1989, and is experienced in all aspects of boat building and restoration as well as marine mechanics.
Sea Scout Charters is owner-operated, so your satisfaction is guaranteed.
After years working in the charter boat business, Lloyd and his wife Sarah are proud to branch out on their own and to share their passion for the water with you. ``The water is our passion - it`s been our life for many years and we`re delighted to share it with you. We like to consider ourselves relaxation therapists.``
``Capt. Lloyd brought a unique outlook to chartering to our area...his professional skills are second to none, but what truly makes him stand out is his unwavering enthusiasm toward the job...everybody has fun...always!``
Our dive operations are designed to ensure your comfort and safety. Convenient bench mounted tank racks, ample handrails, and our spacious cockpit make set up, water entry, and exit easy. Every diver is checked out and back in after each dive, and floating stern (``tag``) lines and descent lines are provided to make your diving adventure a pleasure.
Every trip will have a Dive Master / Deck Hand on board to assist in preparation and provide surface support. For those that may wish to have a guide along during your dive, personal professional Dive Master services are available for an extra charge. Be sure to let us know ahead of time so that we can schedule these services for you.
Be sure to bring your Dive Certification Card or Verification of Certification (log book, etc.). We do not have the ability to ``look up`` certifications at the boat.
Dive Equipment - Please be sure that you have everything you`ll need and that it is all in good working order before you arrive at the dock. Please be sure to bring a timing device - a dive computer, watch, bottom timer, etc. This will be the only part of your vacation that will require time-keeping - but it is very important for your safety while diving! If you need anything (rental or purchase) we recommend that you visit MBT Divers.
A Hat, Sunglasses, Towel, Drinks, and Snacks are not provided and are highly recommended. We provide cooler space, Ice, and water. No Alcohol please!
Please also remember: It`s customary to tip the deck hand / divemaster on any charter vessel - it`s how they make a living.
Spearfishing is permitted on any of our regularly scheduled charters unless otherwise specifically noted. We provide the necessary licenses, but you must provide the equipment. ALL laws and regulations are strictly enforced, and we require all spearfishermen to conduct themselves safely and responsibly - know your target, collect only what you are going to eat, and be considerate of other divers.
If you`re a more experienced spearfisherman, consider a private charter. Bring some friends and we`ll take you beyond the normal bounds and customize the trip just for you.
