CAPTAIN MICK’S WHEELCHAIR-ACCESSIBLE TRANQUIL ADVENTURES -- PART 3
CAPTAIN MICK’S WHEELCHAIR-ACCESSIBLE TRANQUIL ADVENTURES:
Like having a favorite uncle with an accessible pontoon boat in Key Largo
By Steve Wright
Captain Mick is an improviser. Since pontoon boats don’t typically have a restroom on board, he has come up with the next best thing – an onboard portable flush toilet, shower curtains for privacy and a CD-player for turning up the music to provide an additional layer of sound privacy.
The Captain also loves to improvise tours. A morning run to the reef might morph into an evening cruise that puts you in position to view one of those picture perfect Florida Keys sunsets.
The great thing about Captain Mick’s creativity is that it launches personally tailored accessible journeys.
He is well aware that far too many tours aimed at the disability market deliver tame, boring, one-size-fits-all group tours.
Captain Mick doesn’t like that.
If you want to fish in the morning, sightsee midday and swim in the late afternoon, he can do it.
If you want to clean the fish you caught and fire up the portable grill aboard the 28-foot Malesh, he’s ready to gut n’ grill.
TOMORROW: KAYAKING
