How do I know if a captain is legitimate?

All captains on Chartrr are required to submit their USCG captain's license (Merchant Mariner Credential), state fishing/charter licenses, and proof of marine liability insurance. Our team reviews these credentials during onboarding. Look for the "Verified" badge on a captain's profile, which indicates they've completed our credential verification process. However, this badge is not an endorsement — we recommend exercising your own due diligence.
