About
My name is Captain Andy
I am the creator and founder of First Mate Academy. Our mission at First Mate Academy is to teach boating and fishing skills that last a lifetime. Through our on-going programs, students will have the opportunity to learn a progression of skills recognized by certificates of achievement. Our goal is to help students gain knowledge, have confidence on the water and obtain skills to become today's First Mates and tomorrow's Captains!
