Chip

Captain Chip When asked why he does what he does, Captain Chip will tell you, “It beats real work,” which is another way of saying he enjoys what he’s done for the last 15 years. Chip, who’s Cajun ancestors came from Nova Scotia, loves nothing better than sharing his knowledge of Louisiana flora and fauna and discussing issues surrounding the disappearing wetlands with visitors from all around the word. One of the things Captain Chip likes most about airboats is the fact that they let you maneuver into areas the larger tour boats can’t — into nooks and crannies rich with cypress trees, for example. He also likes the fact they allow for only small tour groups which makes the experience more personal. When he’s not giving tours, Chip enjoys hunting and fishing (including bow fishing) with his wife, Veronica, and their two sons.
