SOL SEEKER's Description

• With an abundance of outdoor space, the spacious three double cabins and 3 ensuite bathrooms plus the large saloon and galley, Sol Seeker is both luxurious and practical - plenty of room for groups and families. It's a family friendly boat. No age restrictions. We have a V berth attached to a forward berth that they can set up if you want to keep your little ones close. Sol Seeker had stunning new salon tables that were custom made by an artist and installed in November 2021. They are a unique feature that brings life and art to the space. Sol Seeker features a walkthrough salon for the comfort and safety of guests. There is also a front seating area outside that is ideal for guests with mobility issues or younger children. They feel like they can still be out front in a safe way and included in the fun that happens on the trampoline instead of separated from the group. Actually most guests say this is one of their favorite spots on the boat.

  Scott, is a lover of adventure, land, air, and sea. He spent his life on land as an educator, teaching biology and earth science with a love of nature and exploration. He loves learning and teaching and has filled his mind with a plethora of trivia, nautical and otherwise. His aquatic experience started with SCUBA diving at the ripe, young age of 16. He learned to sail across the seasons on Lake Michigan, braving the chill of spring and fall while taking care of charter guests in the narrow summer months. He brings creativity and excitement to your adventure with a desire to always find something new and unique on every trip. Captain Scott is a certified mixologist creating amazing cocktails.
  
  
  Nikki, was raised on the waters of the Mississippi River and has loved water her entire life. She grew up camping and boating, finding adventure and excitement in the water. A love of photography grew as she found more and more memorable pieces of nature to capture on film. Her love of food extends not only to the pleasure of the palate but also a respect for allergies and preferences across diets. She has spent the majority of her life as a Sign Language Interpreter, working in every field including medicine and travel just to name a few. For the past decade she has been learning and honing her sailing skills on the mercurial Lake Michigan, and taken those skills to the Mediterranean, Atlantic, and Caribbean to see the world from the water. In recent years she has taken new sailors under her wing to share her knowledge. She loves sharing both the thrill of the reefed sail and heavy heel as well as the peace and quiet of a hoisted sail and silenced motor.
  
  Nikki is a nationally certified American Sign Language Interpreter, fluent in ASL. Nikki is the perfect match for charters that have a Deaf person on board. The Deaf client(s) gain access to communication for safety and accessibility. If they would like to take land tours, Nikki would be able to interpret for these tours. Nikki also enjoys teaching signs to children and adults alike. Guests love learning the sign for turtle, octopus, fish, sailboat, etc.
