History
Basically, I've been in this business my whole life. As a born and raised, 4th generation Sitkan I've been on the water for as long as I can remember but officially, I got my captain's license and began giving tours of Sitka Sound in 2002. In 2015, I had the opportunity to purchase my boat, the Blue Dawg, and collaborating with Koali, my partner in love and life, we started Cpt.Gary's Sitka Adventures. So I've been a captain and guide for 17 years and a captain, guide and proud small business owner for nearly 5 years.
