Meet The Captain And The Boat!

Capt. John Silver

Captain John Silver is an Outer Banks native, growing up on Roanoke Island. He was practically raised on the water and has been fishing his entire life.

Before starting Silver Charters, he was a full-time commercial fisherman, catching crabs and shrimp year-round. Captain John wanted to share his love of the water and sustainable seafood with others, which was what sparked Silver Charters.

He loves to have a good time as much as anyone and can assure you that fun will be had by all.

Meet the Mates

  • Rudy

    When Rudy aka Roofus Beans is on the boat, you know you’re in for lots of laughs. He is goofy, loving, and mischievous. (Yes, he’d love a bite of whatever you brought to eat)

  • Ella

    Our behind-the-scenes queen! Off the boat, she’s handling our bookings, marketing, and helping with client communication. On the boat, her job is to entertain, sleep, and drink claws!

  • Emmett

    Emmett, Rudy’s father, is our most hard-working crew member. Whether it is a fish, a crab, or a ball… he’s going to catch it! Also loves a good boat nap while riding.
