Michael Murphy - Captain
Captain Murphy’s family has always lived on the water. They had part ownership in a house in Key Largo when he was a child, and at that time he got the salt water in his blood. Fishing boats, sport fishing, float trips, canoeing, water skiing, and running around on Lake of the Ozarks was his childhood, and then Michael ended up living in Key Largo. He started running a charter boat out of Islamorada, and still today loves to fish. Diving, hunting, camping, and boating are a major part of his life. He writes articles for yachting newspapers. He has traveled from Europe to Alaska, Panama to the Great Lakes. He has spent 5 seasons sailing around southeast Alaska, and loves nothing better than showing people all of the very special major attractions, as well as the hidden treasure spots he has discovered thru the years.
He has spent 6 winters in the Caribbean in such places as Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, Belize, Panama, Nicaragua, Bahamas, and nearly all of the Islands. Captain Murphy invites you to join him and his crew aboard Silent World II to have a wonderful trip, and to create some memories of a lifetime.
