LUCKY LADY CY

ALAN HAM, CAPTAIN/ENGINEER
Alan grew up on the coast of Georgia, just south of Savannah. Being raised in a boating family equipped him with the drive and ability to get his captain's license so he could share his love of the water and boats with others. After he completed his studies at Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College, he began working at a marina on St. Simons Island, Georgia, where he discovered the alluring world of professional yachting. At the age of 20, he accepted an invitation to sail with a crew from Newport, Rhode Island, to Kinsale, Ireland. After finishing that adventure, Alan took a job as a marine electronics installer before finally moving to Fort Lauderdale, Florida, to pursue his love of yachting.

Alan is a great conversationalist with a love of sharing new experiences and beautiful locations with the guests of LUCKY LADY. He's an accomplished fisherman and a thoughtful host with an infectious and always-present smile. So whether they're reeling in the catch of the day, riding a Flite board eFoil or snorkeling with a SeaBob, Alan's guests always feel well taken care of.
