With over 20 years of experience navigating the world’s most renowned fishing locations, Captain Ricky Wheeler has established himself as a premier traveling sportfishing captain and a trusted authority in the sportfishing industry. From the crystal-clear waters of the Caribbean to the tuna and marlin-rich canyons of the Northeast, Ricky has pursued some of the ocean’s most elusive game fish, including marlin, sailfish, tuna, and wahoo along with many inshore species. He also has 11 standing IGFA line class world records to his credit as a captain as well as a long list of tournament wins. His passion for offshore fishing, combined with a relentless drive for excellence, has earned him respect amongst people in the industry worldwide.

 

In addition to his achievements on the water, Ricky is the proud owner and operator of Euphoria Sportfishing, a luxury charter operation with his 60’ Custom Sportfish offering premier offshore fishing experiences in New Jersey and Charleston, SC. His dedication to sharing his knowledge and passion extends to The Saltwater Euphoria Podcast, where he engages with fellow captains, boat builders, and industry professionals to deliver insightful conversations about fishing, boat building, and the evolving sportfishing landscape.

 

All of this has led to him becoming a Yacht Broker with United Yacht Sales, where he can leverage his expertise to guide clients in buying, selling, and outfitting sportfishing vessels. Additionally, his role as a boat build and refit consultant allows him to bridge the gap between boat owners and builders, ensuring every project meets the highest standards of craftsmanship and functionality.

 

With over 20 years as a Captain, Boat Owner, and now a Yacht Broker and Boat Build Consultant, he knows what to look for—because he has been in your shoes.

Whether you’re buying or selling, his experience helps ensure you get the right deal and the right boat for your lifestyle, and he looks forward to helping you every step of the way.
