Captain Bryan Barr Originally from Seattle, I found my way up north to Alaska to work aboard tour vessels for whale watching and glacier tours. It’s up there that I found a passion for the water and the wildlife and sites in and around it. After years up in Alaska and Seattle, and having the opportunity to go through the Inside Passage a number of times, I came out to Hawaii to learn how to sail. I’ve been here for a few years now, and have found much joy in the waters off Maui and what they have to offer.
