Captain and Boat

My name is Patrick Ruff and my parents moved our family to Naples in the early 1970’s. I have spent my entire life boating and enjoying the beach, the bay, and the surrounding Island Locations in Southwest Florida. From Keewaydin Island, to Kice Island, through Marco Island, Goodland and Chokoloskee, the shorelines of the Gulf of Mexico and the backwater channels are like no where else in the World.

One morning a handful number of years ago, after a few glasses of wine the night before, I woke up and said to my wife - “I think I bought a boat last night”. I did in fact buy a boat and The Ruff C's was born.

It is a very simple boat that dates back to 1989, and it is a perfect boat for Island Hopping in Southwest Florida. I have since restored all of the finishes, added all new electronics and wiring, and set her up to be dependable and safe. She is at the heart and soul of my charter excursions.

You will experience a luxury excursion with a dose of nostalgia, pulling from my past 50 years Island Hopping in Southwest Florida.
