About Us
Katie Storr - PADI Master Scuba Diver Trainer - AYI Chief Stewardess - Underwater Photographer
As a child, Katie Storr was immersed in a world where yachting and scuba diving were more than just hobbies, it was and is her life. As the daughter of a yacht captain and scuba diving master, she was exposed to the best of both industries and has visited more than 15 islands in The Bahamas.
With a desire to share her extraordinary experiences, she created a Yacht Concierge and Scuba Company unlike any other.
Her unwavering dedication, lifelong connection to the sea, and genuine enthusiasm for providing unforgettable experiences led to the creation of The Mersquad Yachting.
"At The Mersquad Yachting, we are committed to providing a seamless experience that exceeds your expectations. From the moment you step on board one of our speed boats or luxurious yachts, you will be immersed in comfort and refinement. But the true essence of our company lies in the enchanting underwater world that awaits beneath the surface. Our team of experienced dive professionals will guide you to some of the most captivating dive sites The Bahamas has to offer. - Katie"
The Mersquad Yachting is dedicated to sustainable practices!
Reducing our carbon footprint and improving the quality of our experiences in the ocean is extremely important to our customer service and logistics.
"Our future depends on healthy oceans and as a business owner I want to ensure that I am taking action to minimise our carbon footprint. The choices we make today have huge long-term impacts on our future, that is why we have implemented sustainable billing options (paper less invoicing), digital business cards, reusable glassware and plates (no single use here!), Hay Straws (which we reuse for our composting pile in our own back yard garden to grow our rosemary, mint and basil used to garnish your drinks onboard), we encourage reusable water bottles, Recycling of beer bottles, and most importantly we shop at our local farmers market for the freshest produce. Every little bit counts and small changes to your lifestyle matter. I do believe if we set the bar and educate our clients they will do so as well and pass it on to those around them. The Mersquad will continue to be innovative and passionately improving for the future generations. It is one of the most important things we can do for the economic development of our country. "
