Captain Jon Hardesty, born and raised in Anne Arundel County, started his life on the water at an early age. Coming from a family of watermen, he began crabbing at 13 years old on the Chesapeake Bay before becoming an offshore charter mate. Captain Jon has spent the last few years enjoying the Atlantic Ocean and Chesapeake Bay with his wife and two children by his side! When not able to find him on the water, you can look for him on the field coaching both football and lacrosse.
