Job: 200 Ton Captain for Mothership in SE Alaska

Dylan Grafe ~ September 26, 2021


Job Description:

The 91’ Emerald Island is a moveable “fish camp” owned and operated by Highliner Lodge, the premier saltwater fishing lodge based in Pelican, AK. Typically anchored in a remote cove on the northern shores of Yakobi Island, the Emerald Island delivers groups of ~8 fishing guests a truly unique charter fishing experience, enjoying some of the best halibut and salmon grounds in the world by day and staying aboard the mothership with their fishing guides and a small crew at night.

Up until now, the owner of Highliner Lodge has run this part of the operation on a limited schedule but the demand has always exceeded his availability. Now, with bookings for the shoreside operation and the Emerald Island Mothership at an all-time high, we are ready to commit to running this boat on a near full-time basis during the summer months… if we can find the right people to help us do it! This could be a fantastic opportunity for a properly-credentialed individual (or a couple) to spend next summer, or many summers, living on the water in beautiful southeast Alaska with minimal responsibilities.

Minimum Qualifications/Duties:
-Must hold a valid USCG 200-Ton License
-Must have excellent professional references
-Primary duty is to host groups of ~8 guests in the evenings, staying aboard the vessel at all times when guests are present
-Knowledge and ability to keep people safe and to preside over all boat operations
-Willingness to assist in any task necessary. We will staff appropriately around you and your capabilities but you will be held ultimately responsible for the success of this venture and the enjoyment of our guests while aboard.
-Some tasks could include preparing or heating prepared meals, cleaning rooms, and running fish to town in the mornings for processing

Compensation:
-TBD… will likely include a day rate, share of gratuities, rebook bonus from returning guests, meals and lodging, use of boats/kayaks during the daytime when guests are out fishing, and covered travel expenses
-Countless opportunities and directions to grow if successful

Schedule:
-June 1 to August 31… we anticipate about 10 days on, 4 days off (for scheduled supply runs to Juneau)
