His first water experiences were with his father "Big Ed" who owned and operated a bait and tackle shop on Lake Ray Hubbard in Texas.  Mark's passion is to be on the water, in and around boats and he has over 20 years of boating experience, as well as being rated as a Master Captain by the United States Coast Guard.  Captain Mark enjoys living the life that Jimmy Buffett only wrote about...

Captain Steve Forgione

Captain Steve has been living in Southwest Florida his entire adult life.  Steve has always had a love for the environment and all the wildlife that this paradise has to offer.  He truly enjoys sharing his knowledge with adults and children alike.  He is an avid fisherman and spends most of his days off, fishing and running about in his flats style fishing boat.

First Mate Terresa Siebert

Terresa moved from Lee's Summit Missouri to Fort Myers Beach after taking vacation here and falling in love with Southwest Florida. Terresa retired from interior design to follow her dream of working closer to people, water and sunshine. Her great attitude and love of Florida make her an extremely enthusiastic tour guide. Terresa is the mother of two wonderful boys Dustin and Chase Siebert, which gives her the advantage of working well with children.

Terresa answers phones and books charters. She also performs various support functions in Water Experiences. Terresa looks forward to helping make your charter experience the most amazing day of your life!
