    I am trying to locate a young captain by the name of Jonathon Westbrook. I was given his name at the lauderdale show. They tell me that he is out of Virginia, and is one of the best. He is well known in this field I assume.

    I presume that in a specialty field such as this someone would be able to locate him for me, as I was given no contact information.

    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

    Thank you K1W1

    I have contacted this individual via email. I believe him to be correct as a google of that area code does bring up virginia.

    Thank you very much for your assistance.

    Trideck,
    That looks like a very new captain and only 50GT. From your name I think you might want to check with the agencies in Lauderdale (or more local to your cruising grounds).

    Thanks guys! I am not sure why it did not occur to me to google the name.

    I am looking for a captain for my sportfish that I will be keeping in the northeast. I was told this guy has a 100 ton license. Maybe he upgraded since that ad which was dated July.

    Have any of you heard of him? He was very highly reccomended by the folks I spoke with in lauderdale.

    I am however looking for a captain for a late model Hatteras, and they tell me that he has a lot of Hatteras experience. That could be a reason for the reccomendation.

    I just want a good captain so I can fish! (evil grin)

    100 ton of crap license

    there is no one of the best, everyone makes mistakes its just the matter of how little or how big. are you looking for someone to drive your boat or kill some fish and teach u what commercial fisherman know. a licensed captian uselly knows what to do but has he done it before. I am a commercial fisherman that has fished, enginered, skippered in some of the nastiest water most have not seen. feel free to ask upon me, jesse

    Trideck,
    Where in the northeast do you expect to run out of? I'm not a fishing captain, but am associated with several in this area who are very good and would be happy to give you a recommendation.
