About Us

Message from the Founders
Serge Parakhnevich & Bob Garan

After spending over 20 years on Wall Street, we understood the value of taking a break from the hustle — to reset, recharge, and spend quality time with the people who matter most. Then we found the Florida Keys, a true boating and fishing paradise.

But every time we came down, we ran into the same issue: unreliable, low-quality boats. Dead batteries, broken electronics, dirty cabins, ripped seats and no toilets for our ladies — the experience never matched the beauty of the destination.

So we brought the same white glove service we gave our clients in the financial world… to the boating industry here in the Keys.

At Blue Skies Charter, our mission is simple: give passionate boaters and families peace of mind knowing their time on the water will be smooth, safe, and unforgettable — with clean, well-maintained, high-end boats, every single time.

See you out there,

Serge & Bob
