Meet our Captains
Captain Pat
Pat has lived and worked in Maine for over 30 years and has been a captain at Portland Discovery for over 3 years. He's passionate about boats and history and loves talking to people and showing them around Portland's harbor and islands. When he's not working at Portland Discovery, he's a full time police officer. His time off is spent fishing, flying, sailing and playing the guitar.
Captain Jon
Jon has been a captain for Portland Discovery for 3 years, but has spent the past 20 working the waters of Casco Bay, sailing, operating a water taxi and running a marine towing and salvage firm. Originally from Boston, Jon came to Maine to go to college 25 years ago and never left. When not on the water, Jon, his wife Lynne and their two daughters live in Portland and Jon teaches high school history. He likes being able to share his passion for being on the water, the history of Portland and the excitement on kids faces when we see seals, or on those really special occasions - porpoises.
See the Best of Portland with Us!
