One Day — 33’ Grady White
A spacious 33-foot Grady-White built for comfort, performance, and unforgettable days on the water.
From an early age, Captain Nik and his brother Lucas spent their summers on the water in Newport, surfing, fishing, and sailing around the bay. What started with an old Boston Whaler grew into a mission: share that authentic love of the ocean with everyone who steps on board.
As a family-run business, every trip is an opportunity to create genuine connection and lasting memories on the water.
