The Captain
Maddie Rittich-Watts is a proud, lifelong resident of Orange Beach, where her deep connection to the water has shaped a lifelong passion for fishing and water sports. Growing up surrounded by the Gulf’s natural beauty, she was immersed in countless aquatic activities from an early age. At just 15, Maddie turned her love for fishing into a career by joining a fishing charter boat as a mate. Over the next seven years, she honed her skills and gained invaluable experience working on both charter and privately owned vessels. In 2021, Maddie became a second-generation captain after earning her USCG 100 Ton Captain’s License.
In 2023, she made the difficult decision to step away from the fishing industry, embracing the exciting opportunity to pursue her dream of owning a business on the water. Maddie is excited to share her wealth of experience and love for the water with you, and we can’t wait to welcome you aboard, helping to create unforgettable memories that will last a lifetime.
