Hello, My name is Brad Jordan, and I am the owner/operator of Maine State Sea Kayak. This is my life’s dream, and I welcome you to Mount Desert Island (MDI).

What’s up everybody! My name is Casey, and this will be my 3rd season with Maine State! I’m from Ann Arbor, MI. I’m super stoked to be on the water, and love outdoor adventures of all kinds. I’m also about that barefoot life so pls no pictures of my feet without permission.

Meet Troy

Troy is from Southern California and is always looking for his next adventure—he only has three states left to visit!

His biggest motivation is his family and seeing his grown children living great lives. His two brothers, who have disabilities, have also taught him the importance of inclusion and making sure everyone has the opportunity to be part of an adventure.

Troy’s why is simple: to wake up every day and be the best person he can be.

Meet Max

Howdy gang, Max here! Originally from Southeast Michigan, Max has guided everywhere from Lake Superior to the Italian Riviera and is excited to experience Maine for the first time.

His why is his love of learning and knowledge. He’s driven by fun, laughter, and joy, and his purpose is to keep learning while helping others have fun along the way.

Meet Gabby

Hey! I’m Gabby, a lifelong Michigander and island girl from Harsens Island, MI. This is my first season in Maine, and I’m loving every chance to explore the outdoors!

My why is to empower others and help them build confidence. I want people to discover what they’re capable of, find their passions, and have a whole lot of fun along the way.

I hope everyone finds something they love and for me, that’s definitely kayaking! 😎
