Your Skipper
I'm Simon, owner and skipper of Deep Blue. Originally from Newcastle Upon Tyne, I spent nearly twenty years working in Oxford for a science research company before relocating to Eastbourne in the summer of 2021.
I left my career in Mechanical Engineering to take up a life on the waves.
​
I am also a wedding/event photographer around my boat charter trips. I am an experienced videographer and drone pilot. I was trained to the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) standard to fly drones commercially, and held a PFCO for a number of years.
​
I hold a valid commercial endorsement from the RYA
to skipper chartered motor boats upto 24m in length.
​
The Boat
Deep Blue is a purpose built, and very stable 8.6m AMC catamaran power boat.
Deep Blue is certified by the Maritime & Coastguard Agency, and has all the safety provisions for 10 passengers and 2 crew.
The boat is powered by two, 200hp Honda petrol engines, capable of speeds upto 30kts, getting you to the fishing spots faster than the rest.
There is a marine toilet accessible from the deck.
​
The boat is regularly maintained and serviced in, and out, of the water.
