Sean Phillips | Captain

Captain Sean was born in Miami Beach, FL and raised throughout the Caribbean.
At only a few weeks old he made his very first ocean crossing to the Bahamas along with his parents. Since then, he has been hooked to the ocean “hook, line, & sinker”. He was raised in Miami Beach and has family ties within the boating industry. Captain Sean felt right at home in the water as a child. His early years were spent fishing, diving, and working on boats and watercrafts owned by family. Being raised by a hands-on father, Sean learned at an early age the fundamentals of operating and repairing boats and various watercrafts. He officially started his career in high end private sportfishing. He gained enormous experience in the fast-paced fishing tournaments, which not only gave Sean the benefit of learning to think on his feet in unexpected scenarios, but also taught him navigating many oceans during various seasons. Eventually, Captain Sean transitioned his experiences and knowledge into a high-end yachting career. He is currently licensed in the maritime industry and has been for the last 17 years.
Captain Phillips has successfully completed 12 years of charters on many different size yachts and is looking towards many more to come. His passion for the ocean is infectious and he continuously pushes his crew to seek adventure in each new port.
