Sailing Charter Basic Information​​

You charter the entire boat so everyone on board is your family, friends, or people you invited​

​We sail "Jo Da Ma" a 45ft. Beneteau Sloop.​ Jo-Da-Ma has three births, head and shower, a full galley, and

all the comforts you would expect from a world class yacht like the Beneteau Oceanis 440 

​We recently gave her some significant love with brand new sails, interior, additional safety gear,

electronics, rigging, refrigeration, and much more.

​The Captain has over 40 years of sailing and ocean experience

Meet Your Captain — Mario Pi

​

My love of sailing began when I was eight years old. My friend Charlie invited me aboard his dad’s boat, Schick-Charney—though I’m sure I’ve misspelled her name! I can still remember coming around the corner of the building where she was moored and seeing her for the first time: a beautiful, emerald-green, 54-foot ketch, polished and ready to sail. It was love at first sight. We headed out for a three-hour sail, and, in a way, I never came back. That afternoon started a lifelong adventure and here I am today. Let's not forget Jimmy Buffet had a thing or two, or three to do with my love of the sea and sailing

Since that firsts sail, I have been to the eastern and western Caribbean, along the coasts of Latin America as far south as Chile, and along much of the U.S. East Coast. I spent four wonderful years in Roatán, Honduras, running my first sailing charter business and getting out on the water five—and sometimes seven—days a week.

​

Today, I welcome guests aboard Jo Da Ma at Key Largo Sailing Charters. As a captain, keeping everyone safe is always my first priority. Beyond that, I want you to feel at home, relax, and enjoy the pleasure of being out on the water. Whether it’s your first sail or your hundredth, I’m happy to share the experience with you.

And then there’s Forest—my dog, sailing companion, and faithful crew member! Forest joins us on every sail, so being comfortable around dogs is part of enjoying a trip with us. If dogs aren’t your thing, we may not be the best fit—and that’s okay. For fellow dog lovers, Forest and I look forward to welcoming you aboard!
