Jimmy Sculley

Jimmy Sculley absorbed his father's passion for sportfishing and the handcrafted vessels that carried the senior Sculley into exotic locations for exhausting battles with massive billfish. And like his father, Jimmy owned and operated several restaurants in Hilton Head and Virginia Beach before the siren song of the sea led him to join his father and the Sculley Boatbuilders team.

Jimmy is the face of Sculley Boatbuilders as the head of marketing for the company. He now works full time for the family business, helping to spread the word about the finest sportfishing yachts found on any of the world's seven seas. Additionally, Jimmy is an angler for Team Sculley and helped navigate the team to the 2004 ESPN2 Billfishing Extreme Release League championship.

You are likely to run into Jimmy at major east coast boat shows and fishing tournaments, as his company duties annually call for him to log hundreds of hours at sea, introducing the latest Sculley Sportfisherman to people whose passion for luxurious, durable sportfishing yachts equals that of he and his father.

Jimmy Sculley is not only an ex-restaurateur and the face of Sculley Boatbuilders, he is an avid fisherman. With a family now three generations deep in sportfishing heritage, quite simply it is in his blood.
