Explore Virginia’s Northern Neck and discover the scenic beauty of the lower Potomac River, Coan River and nearby creeks and tributaries with Captain David Rowe aboard the “Bay Quest”, an authentic 43′ Chesapeake Bay dead rise. Captain Rowe is fully licensed and certified by the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) and takes special pride in providing a safe and enjoyable tour for all of his customers (recently receiving special recognition by the USCG for his years of safe service). Captain Rowe has worked on the Chesapeake Bay for over 40 years as both a charter and commercial fisherman and proudly brings this incredible wealth of knowledge and experience to each and every one of his watermen’s heritage tours.

Larger groups and field trips can easily be accommodated as the Bay Quest is Coast Guard certified to carry up to 24 passengers! All tours include an overview of the local fisheries, history and culture of the area delivered from the unique perspective of an authentic Chesapeake Bay working waterman.
