Alaska Boat Crew
60 Degrees Adventure Charters is owned by longtime Alaskans with a thirst for adventure. The name 60 Degrees refers to the latitude of Seward, Alaska – the company's homeport.
Every member of our team shares a passion for sharing this beautiful place and all it has to offer with our guests.
Captain Tommy
Tommy was born and raised in Duluth, MN. After college, he moved to Montana with an urge to experience the mountains. He fell in love with the mountain lifestyle and it was a natural progression to venture to Alaska.
Tommy has spent two summers in Bristol Bay gillnetting sockeye salmon and four summers charter fishing out of Seward. Alaska holds a large place in his heart, solely based on the sheer vastness of fish, wildlife, and landscapes. In the winter, Tommy competes in snowboard races and travels around chasing powder. Other passions include fishing, hunting, back-packing and surfing.
Deckhand Natalie
Natalie was born and raised in South Africa. She moved to Alaska eight years ago where she discovered her love for working on the ocean. She commercial fished out of Ketchikan for a season; swam with mantas in Hawaii and whale sharks in the Philippines. But ultimately found her home here on the Kenai Peninsula, where she enjoys hiking and paddle boarding in the summer and continues to try to learn to skate ski in the winter.
She has a serious case of wanderlust and has picked up some delightful traditional dishes from around the world - which she is always excited to share in her cooking.
Captain Laura
Laura was born and raised in Portland, Oregon. Her best childhood memories involve being on and around the ocean. After high school, she joined the Navy and earned a degree in Information Technology from the US Naval Academy. She served a tour in Japan, which whet her appetite for travel and adventure.
After the Navy, she came to Alaska to go commercial fishing for one summer and got hooked! Six seasons later she changed course into the charter industry to share her love of Alaska with others.
