A Personal Welcome
From Captain Darcy

Take all the time you need.
I am always here for you.
Planning an ash scattering at sea is something most families have never done before. It is natural to have questions and to feel uncertain about what to expect.
For more than a decade, Captain Darcy has helped families create peaceful, private celebrations of life on the waters of San Diego Bay. From your first conversation through your return to the marina, she is there to guide you every step of the way with compassion, patience, and thoughtful planning.
Captain Darcy personally answers your questions, explains each step, and helps you feel prepared before your charter.
Since 2011, she has guided hundreds of families through ash-scattering ceremonies and celebrations of life at sea.
Her knowledge of local waters, weather, and meaningful locations allows families to relax knowing every detail has been thoughtfully considered.
Every charter is private, giving your family the time and space to honor your loved one in a way that feels meaningful to you.
Families often tell Captain Darcy they felt at peace before they ever stepped aboard.
That is because her care begins long before the day of your charter. She takes time to answer questions, listen to your family's wishes, explain what to expect, and thoughtfully plan an experience that reflects the life of the person you are honoring.
She believes every family deserves the time, privacy, and compassionate guidance to create a meaningful farewell.

Darcy is amazing! I trust Darcy so much that I only will recommend her to my family, friends and clients. I know she will keep you safe and make sure you have a great experience. Darcy's professionalism, experience and adorable boat make spending time on the San Diego Bay the best experience you could hope for.

We chartered with Anytime Boat Charters to scatter my mother's ashes. Captain Darcy is so professional and personable. She was the key element in making what could have been a difficult and sad day extremely relaxed and lovingly memorable. I recommend her services for any occasion and will happily return for other pleasant occasions, birthdays, anniversary, etc. Thank you Captain Darcy! You rock!! (Pun slightly intended :) )

Captain Darcy is amazing! She helped me with my mother about 6 years ago. And now I've come back so that she can help me with my brother. I'm hoping at some point to experience all the other services they provide. She made it a very peaceful experience, and I look forward to it again.

The Cierra is a classic launch designed for quiet, comfortable cruising on San Diego Bay.
Her open layout allows families to gather together, share memories, enjoy music,
pray, or simply sit in peaceful reflection as they honor someone they love.
Carrying up to six guests, every private charter aboard the "Cierra"
is thoughtfully guided by Captain Darcy,
creating a calm and meaningful setting for your family's farewell.
