TJ Steward on his personal watercraft

TJ - El Presidente


From grammar school into high school, TJ was an active child living in the suburbs outside of Baltimore, Maryland. He could always be found playing for the local Little League sports teams or in the neighborhood in a friendly pick-up game. Immediately following high school graduation, TJ enlisted into the United States Marine Corps and was soon sent off to basic training at Parris Island, South Carolina. Upon completing School of Infantry, TJ was stationed in Camp Pendleton, California where he served his entire enlistment with 1st Battalion / 5th Marine Infantry Regiment. 


TJ would end his active-duty service and return to Maryland where shortly thereafter he applied and was accepted to become a Baltimore City Police Officer. Sadly, upon ending his midnight shift on the early morning hours of September 11th, 2001, the nation suffered a tragic event and TJ felt the need to answer the calling by transitioning from local law enforcement into federal law enforcement. 


During 23+ years of combined time in Military, Federal & State law enforcement career fields, TJ finds ways to relax and de-stress himself on the waters of the Chesapeake Bay and nearby tributaries on one of his personal watercrafts. After purchasing his first PWC in 2010, TJ starting tweaking and modifying his toy to become faster. Each year after there were more mods added. He developed his knowledge of different PWC models, engines, parts associated with each, and the brands and products sold by aftermarket vendors by his relentless tinkering on his own machines. 


Over the years since 2010, TJ has built a rapport with individuals and companies that are known to be the top names in the PWC aftermarket performance parts arena. The continued relationships gave way to the idea and creation of PWC Fanatics LLC. The idea to create a one-stop-shop for any PWC enthusiast’s parts & apparel needs!


As President, TJ is dedicated to providing each customer with with a unique shopping experience that will allow for a multitude of PWC performance-based products to purchased in one place….Veteran Owned & Operated, PWC Fanatics!
