Captain's Service

Often families cannot venture to sea or attend a scattering ashes at sea memorial service. Our captains respectfully bring the cremated remains on an ocean voyage for you. A dignified scattering of ashes at sea is performed in strict EPA compliance, and each service is carefully documented with a Memorial Certificate including the exact coordinates of the scattering location. This is our most popular service, with prices beginning at just $350.

While the Captain’s Service does not provide for the family or guests to accompany the vessel, we make scheduling as simple as possible. You may reach us directly by phone or through our “Inquire Now” form to request this service. Many ports have seasonal demands, and schedules vary at different times of the year, so please contact us for specific availability.

Sea Services™ proudly performs Captain’s Services on both coasts of the United States, including locations such as New York City, Freeport (NY), Delaware, Boston, Long Beach (CA), New Jersey, South Carolina, and Seattle. Wherever your family is located, our team will work to provide a respectful and meaningful service.

Scattering of Ashes or Burial at Sea?

The scattering of cremated remains on the sea’s surface is timeless tradition — a chosen funeral custom for thousands of years.   Many, however,  due to personal, religious or traditional desires, prefer to be placed in a burial urn on the ocean’s floor.

Sea Services has developed the Burial at Sea Service that sensitively accomplishes this timeless tradition, while insuring 21st Century protection of the environment.  Whether you choose a traditional Sea Scattering or the dignified Burial at Sea with a urn you can be assured that your service will receive our personal attention at any port, off any shore of our nation.
