In honor of a life well lived on the water, we invite family, friends, and fellow boaters to join us as we gather to lay Nat to rest at sea.
We invite everyone to gather with us for one final voyage in his honor. In the waters where he built his livelihood, followed his passion, and helped pave the way for so many, we will come together to celebrate a life that left its mark on the sea and on the people who knew him.

*We will remain flexible based on weather conditions, and event times may be subject to change. Any updates or schedule adjustments will be posted at thecaptandthekid.com. Please check the website for the latest information before heading out.
In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made to the West Palm Beach Fishing Club in support of its youth fishing programs. These programs include the club’s Kid Fishing day, Rods and Reels for Kids, and other youth fishing initiatives of the Palm Beach County Fishing Foundation. In honor of Nat’s lifelong love of the water and his passion for sharing his knowledge with others, these contributions will help inspire the next generation of young anglers and give local children the opportunity to experience the joy, adventure, and lifelong memories that can be found on the water.
