Well since I served in the U.S.Navy,and aboard ship the 'Skipper' is the commanding officer of a ship or submarine that
is who a skipper is.

It refers to the leading officer of a vessel, which is almost always a Captain, which is the navy equivalent to the army's colonel

It's the person in command of the boat or ship. The master of the ship.
