Born and raised outside of Atlantic City, NJ, and now residing in Houston, Texas since 2012, Jimmy started off young, working at the marina in Atlantic City, and was always around yachts. Out of high school, Jimmy entered the oilfield and commercial shipping industries. In 2013, he joined a 164’ yacht and spent more than 10 years working and traveling aboard the vessel. He joined as a deckhand and quickly rose through the ranks to become First Officer and shortly afterward, Relief Captain.

Ahoy there! I'm Captain Todd, and I've spent over 35 years navigating the world's waters, clocking in over a quarter million nautical miles on numerous vessels. From the serene Mediterranean to the bustling ports of the Caribbean, Baltic Sea, New England, and Alaska, I have loved every minute of my time on the sea. Hailing from the sunny shores of San Diego, I got my start sailing racing yachts right in the heart of the bay. The thrill of competition captured me, especially after the exhilarating 1987 America's Cup. Since then, I've been fortunate to crew and race on sail yachts across the globe—including the very boat that won the ’87 Cup, Stars & Stripes—with one unforgettable voyage taking me from Venezuela through the Baltic all the way to St. Petersburg, Russia. As my maritime journey continued, I transitioned to skippering motor yachts, with a particular affinity for charter boats. There’s something magical about creating unforgettable experiences for guests as we sail through different ports. With unwavering optimism and a penchant for spreading positivity, I ensure that every moment aboard is nothing short of extraordinary. Whether you're aboard CHASSEUR for an hour or a month, rest assured that your time with me will be an adventure to treasure forever. When I'm not at the helm of CHASSEUR, you'll likely find me on a stand-up paddleboard, catching the wind on a sailboat, or tearing up the trails off-roading.
