Coolwater

Captain Damon Santelli and his 31 foot Sea Vee, the Coolwater, are one of the most sought after fishing charter trips in Key West. Captain Damon Santelli is a fourth generation Key Western, also known as a Conch. Early on in his career, Captain Damon Santelli decided to become a full time guide and charter captain, leaving the sometimes more lucrative field of commercial fishing. This decision proves the passion Captain Damon Santelli has for the world of one on one fishing. Throughout the years, he has become one of the keenest of charter captains. If you have a request for a specific type of fish, Captain Damon Santelli will know where to go and where to find it.

His fishing vessel, the Coolwater, is a new Sea Vee with dual 250 Yamaha Four Stroke engines, providing guests with a strong yet steady sea adventure. The boat was custom built to allow for all kinds of fishing.

You will also find a CD player and a telephone on board. This trip guarantees your absolute comfort as well as your absolute enjoyment. With this level of experience and the state of the art Coolwater, a fishing charter trip with Captain Damon Santelli is quite the bargain!
