Charleston is a Festival of Lights!

Posted on December 8, 2011 by Holly

For me, it has become a family tradition to visit the James Island Festival of Lights.  Maybe it is the bright displays of holiday scenes, the large sand sculpture, or the roasting of marshmallows in a blazing fire pit.  All of these things are wonderful but I believe that it is sharing this time with friends and family that truly makes my holiday bright.

While you are enjoying your holiday season and traditions, consider starting a new one.  From the Charleston Harbor, the lights are burning bright along the battery.  Take the time to get on the water and enjoy.

Happy Holidays!

Set Sail and Elope to Charleston, SC

Posted on December 6, 2011 by Holly

The stigma that weddings are supposed to be lavish affairs with lots of people, elaborate budgets, and a bride and groom standing at an alter is simply not true.  In today’s economy, brides are forgoing the norm and seeking the alternative – elopement.  It has definitely gained in popularity and Charleston, SC is a popular destination for all brides with varying budgets.

Those that choose to come to Charleston, SC to elope must consider the ultimate “I Do” in the Charleston Harbor.  Set sail with your honey, a small group of your closest friends, and commit yourself and life to each other.  We have packages available to include everything from the wedding offiants, cake, beverages, food, and photographer.

Having a wedding should not blow the pocketbook.  It is a joyous time that should be remembered – what is more memorable than to be in the Charleston Harbor with your loved one aboard a beautiful sailboat or yacht and committing your lives to each other.

Trained Captains? Say it ain’t so!

Posted on November 14, 2011 by Holly

This is an industry that sometimes gets a bad rep – dirty boats, unfriendly captains, inattentive to clients, only cares about catching the big fish.  Captains Source doesn’t believe this and knows that it is about proper training.  Our captains understand that it is about the customer experience and sometimes you have to go “back to school.”  Check out the latest Post and Courier article.

Professionalism, customer service, local ecology and history make our captains the total package.  USOBE and Clemson University work together to provide a training class to address these issues which makes our captains the best out there!

Celebrate Small Business…Support Locals

Posted on November 11, 2011 by Holly

The busiest shopping days of the year are upon us…Black Friday and Cyber Monday.  But the day that everyone should be talking about is Small Business Saturday.  These business owners are your friends and neighbors, the people you pass at the grocery store, the driver on the phone in the car at the stoplight.  They are a part of the American dream and they need your support.  We need your support.

Captains Source is a locally owned business working with local licensed US Coast Guard captains.  Over the past year, we have entertained over 800 guests on our many boats within the Charleston Harbor.  It is a complete thrill to serve our community and we want you to get onboard and enjoy Charleston from the water.

Check out this article for the Top 10 Reasons to support the locals.
