Captain Marvin's Watersports has reported today the passing of Captain Marvin Ebanks at age 98. About ten years ago, I was fortunate enough to be on a excursion to Stingray City for which he was running the boat at age 88. The fact that he was driving the boat out to the stingrays is something I will not forget.

 

His excursions to Stingray City were always a highlight of any cruise to the Cayman Islands.

Thanks for this post. I remember years ago seeing the stingrays with Captain Marvin. I am sure he will be missed by many vacationers.
