Hi, I'm
Ahoy!! My name is Captain John Hosey. I usually go by Captain Johnny or Captain Hosey by friends and family. I grew up around Lake Superior my whole life. My dad is a sailor on the ore boats and traveled around the great lakes as a kid from Port to Port. I am very experienced in the Apostle Island area and have been to every island with knowledge of all the history of them. The season up here is short so I try to take every chance I can to be on the water as much as possible. I want everyone to get a chance to be able to see the islands and not just one island. The islands are beautiful, and challenging to maneuver. We are very cautious of weather, and want to make sure everyone has a fun and safe time on the water, as well as a memorable experience and a desire to return in the future. There are 22 islands to see and each one has their own characteristics. I run a water taxi service in the bay area and like to help people get home from Madeline Island between Bayfield, Ashland, Red Cliff, and Washburn. I own a 25' open bow Cobalt 252 Condurr with a 454 engine in Deep Blue. Weather conditions sometimes interfere with boating plans and water taxi availability, weather conditions which may include winds, storms, or fog.
Please feel free to contact me and let me know where you are and where you plan to go.
I was born in Superior, WI. I am originally from Lake Nebagamon, WI and grew up there. I have lived on Madeline Island since 2016.
I am an avid fisherman and hunter. I enjoy golfing, playing pool, and watching sports. I also played football, basketball, and baseball. Being on water is always a passion of mine as well. I am a big movie buff, too.
My dream job would be to deliver yachts or just to be somewhere tropical all year round on a boat as a Captain.
My favorite band is The Band Famous. If you're on this page please check them out as they are some of my best friends and it would mean a lot to them. I like all kinds of music.
