WILL VENTRESS

Captain

After relocating from St. Thomas, USVI to offer boat charters in Charleston, in the spring of 2023, Captain Will seamlessly integrated into our team. Welcoming this Georgian native, we embraced his innate sense of adventure and extraordinary passion for sailing—a decision we’re thrilled about. Furthermore, Will’s expansive love for the outdoors took root when he discovered his sailing passion on the renowned Lake Lanier, GA, eventually transforming into a career that led him on adventures up and down the entire East Coast, throughout most of the Caribbean, and the Gulf of Mexico.

As a licensed USCG 100 Ton Master Captain, Capt. Will is not only well-versed in sailing but also holds certifications in First Aid CPR/AED with the American Heart Association and Level IV SwiftWater Rescue with the American Canoeing Association. His genuine affection for the ocean and the art of sailing is palpable, creating a lighthearted, fun, and safe experience for exploring all the sights from a unique perspective.

KRYSTAL HALVORSON

First Mate/Captain

Originally from Iowa, Krystal has called Charleston, SC, home for the better part of two decades. It was in Charleston that she unearthed her passion for sailing. Drawn to the sense of peace and vitality that comes from being propelled by the wind through the water. Krystal joined the team in 2021 to assist in offering the best experiences possible for boat charters in Charleston. She is dedicated to sharing this love and passion with every guest who steps onboard. While she is accomplished in all aspects of sailing, she is also a delightful presence to be around. Coupled with her sailing expertise, Krystal has received training in CPR and first aid. Furthermore, she has recently received her captain’s license, and starting to share her passion from behind the helm as captain in Blue Life Charters.

KAI CLUSELLA MORRIS

Crew in Training

The latest member of the Blue Life Charters family is Kai. Since his birth in November 2020, he’s been sailing as a future captain and crew member. However, while he might not make frequent appearances onboard during charters, Kai thoroughly enjoys sailing with his mom and dad on their days off. Therefore, perhaps in the future, he’ll be the one taking guests out on the water for a boat charter in Charleston!

POPSICLE

Deckhand

Popsicle is the glorified deckhand of Blue Life Charters. He is a 25-pound rescue pup from St. Thomas, VI. Mireia and Wit rescued him while sailing in the Caribbean, and he made his debut onboard at just three months old. Ever since, Popsicle has adored the sea. Especially, when it comes to spotting Dolphins on boat charters in Charleston.

Whether he’s lounging in the sun at midship or sitting in the cockpit, reveling in the wind in his fur, Popsicle is a constant source of joy. While he may not assist in setting the anchor for swimming, he undoubtedly brings a smile to everyone’s face.
