The captain
Capt. Sergey Chashchukhin fished commercially out of Key West from 2008 before switching to charters full time. It is an owner-operator outfit: he runs every trip himself, so the person who answers the phone is the one driving the boat.
The boat is a Sea Born LX 26 center console with twin 200-horsepower Suzukis, fast enough to reach the backcountry or the reef with time to spare. Trips are priced for the whole boat and the itinerary bends to the weather and the group.
“Great for all ages.”
Owner and captain
Owner-operated; Capt. Sergey runs every charter. Bio on the Pirate Adventure Charters site.
The one to book
The four-hour sandbar trip is the flexible one. Start at a sandbar, add a snorkel stop or a run through the mangroves for dolphins, and come back when the group is done. Snorkel gear and drinks are aboard; bring your own food and drinks, no glass.
Six-hour versions of the sandbar, snorkel and eco trips run $899, and the two-hour sandbar or sunset-and-dolphin trips are the cheapest private boat on this site at $350.
