Captain Craig Jobes is a United States Coast Guard Certified Captain and has been fishing and boating the waters off Long Island for over 20 years.

Craig graduated from the University of West Virginia with a bachelor’s degree in Wildlife and Fisheries Resources due to his lifelong love for the outdoors. He then returned to his hometown of Southold, NY and began a career working as a deckhand aboard local commercial and recreational fishing vessels. Craig worked as a port sampler in the fishing industry for a U.S. Government contractor as well, before landing a job with the Town of Southold as an Environmental Analyst in 2017.

Craig received his captain’s license in May of 2013 at the age of 22 where he began his career running a local charter fishing vessel out of Orient Point, NY. Since his tenure as a captain began, Craig has expanded his work in the boating world running numerous fishing vessels as well as being hired privately by families and individuals to command their vessels safely while at sea. Over the years that Captain Craig has spent navigating the local waters of Eastern Long Island, he has developed an understanding and mastery of the navigational hazards in the area. He loves to use his acquired skills and tricks of the trade to provide others with a safe and enjoyable time on the water so that they can relax and reap all of the benefits of their time at sea.

Craig married the love of his life and now lives in the Village of Greenport alongside his wife, three children and two Labrador retrievers. He is very involved in the community through his work for the Town of Southold, as well as his volunteering in the Greenport Fire Department serving as both an officer and a warden representing Eagle Hose Engine Company 1. When not serving the local community, Craig enjoys spending time with his wife and children in the house they turned into a home.
