Your captain
Stevensville, Maryland, United States
Brice O’Malley is a USCG-licensed Captain with a Bachelor of Science Ocean Engineering in Aquaculture and Fisheries degree from the Florida Institute of Technology. Brice has been fishing the Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries his whole life. At 18, he purchased his first ocean-worthy boat, a 1974 Seavee 25 Center Console. Brice embarked on a stringers-up restoration. At 21, he was offered a full-time job aboard The Marylander, and shortly thereafter, he tested and was granted his USCG Captain License. Knowing this was a passion he wanted to pursue, Brice restored his dream boat, a 26 ft Regulator CC. After years of searching, he found the boat and hauled it home from the swamps of Florida. He began the tedious task of making it once again a pristine fishing boat. After a year of hard work and hundreds of hours, the boat was finished and now offers charter fishing trips.
