SEAL Captain Fozii

Ahoy my name is Fozii. I have been very privileged to have held a captain license for over 10 years now. My career in the tourism industry started back in 2002 when I got a job with a helicopter tour company in Hawaii. Seattle was the beginning of my career as a captain but the weather scared me away so here I am now in sunny San Diego. I Feel very lucky to be a part of the SEAL Tour team.

SEAL Captain Tony

I was born and raised in San Diego and a graduate from University City High in 1987. I spent the next 5 years at Humboldt State University and then relocated to the British Virgin Islands. I returned to San Diego after Hurricane Irma in September 2017. During my 24 years in the Caribbean, I established a SCUBA instruction and tours business and an Eco Kayak tour company.  I feel fortunate to be able to return to my family and friends in San Diego and enjoy sharing my local historical and marine knowledge on board the SEAL Tour.

SEAL Captain Hal

CAST member since 2015

I hail from Texas and am a lifelong sailor. I passed through San Diego in 2011 on my way South to Mexico on Luna Sea, my 37-foot sailboat. San Diego appealed to me and after 4 years of cruising Latin American waters, my wife and I returned to San Diego for a change. Before crusing in Mexico and points south, I lived and worked in Santa Cruz and the Bay Area (Alameda) for many years. I have two siblings, brothers, who reside in Texas, four adult children scattered around the U.S. and a wife, Nina. I enjoy traveling, reading and sailing. Currently, I hold a 50 ton MMC with the Coast Guard and am collecting sea time towards my 100 ton MMC.

I have worked in the paper, art supply, and trade show industries. In 1999 I realized a lifelong dream- I bought a 40′ boat named “Island Time” in which I now live aboard.
