Our Mission
At Seas Your Dreams, our mission is to impact people and oceans with positive results.
In short, our founder was inspired by the ocean as a child, its healing and calming properties that somehow could soothe anything in just a short-day excursion. Through the years he was able to use his professional success to extend this joy and love to others that were less fortunate. Whether it be due to medical issue or financial limitations, he wanted to share his love with others and give them that moment of mental healing.
His love of the ocean, and being immersed in it all the time, revealed so many issues that are plaguing all our oceans and their future. The dying reefs, dying species, contamination and so much more. What are our kids going to see if things don’t change for the better.

Creating the Model
Creating Model
Our founder began working with ocean research non-profits to try and make a dent. This simply revealed more issues that needed attention and as a master problem solver, he knew he was ready for the challenge. The biggest challenge is knowing which non-profits are actually doing something positive and effecting real change. The next challenge was understanding the amount of resources required to effectively engage in the fight. The last challenge was finding volunteer support, long-term help and support from the next generation.
After donating time in this space, he quickly realized there are groups that are passionate about making change and others that are passionate about making a “name”. So he set out to find organizations that are trustworthy and doing exactly what they preach.

PILLARS
Ocean research is where we start fixing the problems we have caused. While we have our own initiatives, they are often co-mingled with other amazing organizations as we share resources to tackle challenges like climate change, carbon neutrality, pollution, habitat and species loss. Your contributions fund vital studies on marine ecosystems, biodiversity, and sustainable practices. Every donation made to Seas Your Dreams has a meaningful impact in our organization, or in another organization that needs support.
Ocean Research Programs
Here’s where we got creative. We need the next generation to carry the flag when we are gone. The best way to ensure this, is to find those shining stars with a passion and get them involved with hands-on experiences. Our programs take these young adults that are at a decision stage of their life, pre-college, we take them on scientific excursion, have them interact with real scientist and take part in real-world missions of change. Here, they learn how exciting and fun this part of the experience can be, and the importance of their work. Your donations to this program ensure we can take young adults along to volunteer and learn.
STEM Programs
This pillar hits very close to home. In the early years of the foundation, our founder would take young kids and families out on the boat, for nothing more than a day to relax and see something different. It was a “de-stress” activity where everyone could just enjoy a different scenery for the day. What transpired was magical. Kids with seizures would spend an entire day on the water and not one seizure. Kids with brain injuries that could not remember anything, would talk about their day on the water and not forget. The ocean has healing powers that no one will ever understand. In 2024 our founder’s son had a cardiac arrest and suffered a devastating brain injury. Now this foundation has more relevancy to our founder than ever before. Your donations help support this arm of giving back to those that are in need. We do our best to give the patient a great day, and the caregivers a day off.

Helping Underserved Communities
HELPING HUMANS
- There are smart, amazing kids everywhere, not just in the affluent neighborhoods. However, so many of the underserved communities don’t receive the same opportunities. We tip the scales by actively looking for “bright stars” in underserved communities, hoping to find work in the scientific field, and we offer those kids the chance to join a real scientific expedition for an unprecedented introduction to the industry.
- Working with the Miami-Dade Public Schools, we work with educators to find those kids that have a high potential to succeed if they only had a little extra support. They not only get a chance to see what a future career can be but can also earn a scholarship to one of our preferred colleges with a marine program. Seas Your Dreams pays for all expenses incurred during the trips and any scholarship awarded is also supported with a mentor for the first year of college. No other organization is providing this kind of support.

Supporting Science
SUPPORTING SCIENCE
This pillar came about in 2019, and quite by accident. A scientific research team was on expedition in The Exumas and due to weather issues, found themselves in need of accommodations. Since Seas Your Dreams works with a variety of Caribbean Organizations and Caribbean Hotels. We were able to secure accommodations for all the scientists, provide meals, and even dockage for the vessel being used. This ensured they were able to stay the additional days needed to pull receivers and gather the data required to complete their mission.
A few weeks after this, another group on expedition in The Florida Keys had a vessel malfunction beyond repair. This group was conducting “real-time” underwater classes for students in California. They were learning how to preserve the delicate coral reefs. We received a call, and our founder was able to use his vessel and be the captain so that they did not have a wasted trip. This has now turned into one of the pillars we love to support whenever we can.
Whether we are taking scientist to collect water samples, taking divers to reef clean ups, carrying people to local islands to pick up garbage, Shark Tagging, turtle release, and even supporting with vessels in other countries; it all helps protect the waters we play in. This is our way of supporting those that protect our resources.

How Can You Support
HOW CAN YOU
SUPPORT
Captains and Mates – If you are an experienced person on the water and want to provide assistance on any of our excursions, please leave us your contact information and we will reach out to you and let you know more about being on our team. We will not use your email to solicit funds and we won’t give it away.
Captains And Mates
Organizations and Non-Profits – We want to help you. We are NOT a selfish organization. If you see this as an alternative means to support your patients, members, or anyone else that is in need let us know and we will provide an outlet. If you have an organization that provides assistance and you feel you can support us with food for the trips, drinks, any swag… let us know. If you are doing good for our community, we want to support you as well.
ORG. & NON-Profit
Donors – We all know that these things cost money. We have boat payments each month. We have insurance each month for the boat and for liability. We have to purchase gas, food and drinks for each trip. If we don’t have captains to donate their time, we have to hire them for the day. We have to pay for marina storage. However, one thing we don’t pay for is staff. All of our staff to date is volunteer so 100% of your donations go to the operations of the foundation.
