Captain Cyrus
Captain Cyrus emerged into the boating world at the age of 17. As a youngster he would watch the deep sea boats leave the docks in search of adventures. He yearned to join them. Cyrus' passion for fishing is immediately obvious. He links this passion to a river he visited as a child in New Zealand. There, an old man taught him the art of Fly fishing. From that day on, Cyrus was drawn to water and when near it, his gaze was fixed for what may be beneath its surface.
At 17 he graduated early and sailed the Andaman sea where he acquired a special taste for sea and salt. He then travel over land through Asia, Australia, New Zealand, Africa and Central America before returning to the Hawaiian Islands. Upon his return, Cyrus, once again was on the docks. At 20 his dream of being a captain came to fruition. At 25 he decided to raise the bar and custom tailor a Kona Sea Adventure.
His passion for the ocean is only trumped by his desire to show his clients something different. Cyrus' strives to awaken the inner Hemingway in all his guests and show them an ocean that they have only read about in books.
