Skippers

Beaufort Charters believe that customers are their number one priority, and the skippers' aim is to provide an enjoyable day out for everyone. Both are happy to help and instruct when needed and also enjoy learning from their more knowledgeable passengers.
When you charter our boat out of Brighton Marina for a sea fishing trip you can be sure you are in good hands.

Main skipper Noel West started his fishing career as a deckie on North Sea trawlers working out of Lowestoft on the east coast. He holds an RYA Yachtmaster qualification both in sail and motor, endorsed for commercial operation. Boats and fishing are his hobby and working life, both of which he enjoys immensely.

Relief skipper Chris Golding started his relationship with Aquavitesse as a customer and liked the experience so much he joined the Beaufort Charters Team as a Relief skipper. Chris holds a skippers ticket endorsed for commercial operation and fishing is not only a hobby and work for Chris but also a passion. Chris is always happy to talk on anything concerned with sea fishing and is very keen to help our customers improve their fishing technique and enjoyment of the sport..
