Our Boats

Small group size, comfort and quality. All our yachts have large inflatable boats for shore excursions, and stable sea kayaks for exploring protected bays and along the shore. Each day is full - walks ashore, voyaging island to island, then anchoring each night in a new, secluded bay.

ISLAND ROAMER
is a custom 68-foot ketch, launched in 1983. The boat's design, safety and comfort make her perfect for these trips. She features 8 private cabins (double occupancy), 3 heads with hot showers, a large comfortable lounge with an extensive library, and a well-equipped galley. On deck, the large covered seating area provides protection in all types of weather.

ISLAND ROAMER is large enough for comfort, privacy and safety, and small enough to create a good rapport among passengers and crew. A certified Canadian Ministry of Transport passenger vessel, ISLAND ROAMER has all of the safety equipment, electronic navigation aids, and features you would expect from a vessel of her standard.

SNOW GOOSE

The 65' steel motor-vessel SNOW GOOSE was built in Alaska in 1973 as a private yacht. Ideal for research and education programs, she sleeps 12 passengers in 6 private cabins (double occupancy), with 3 heads and two showers. The main deck features a spacious, airy salon, natural history library, galley and dining area. Large windows provide great viewing on all sides with easy access to the deck. The upper bridge deck provides a good vantage point for spotting wildlife and comfortable seating for passengers who wish to get involved with the navigation of the ship. "Snow Goose" is a US Coast Guard certified passenger vessel.

ISLAND ODYSSEY

Our new 68' ketch Island Odyssey
is the sister-ship to 'Island Roamer'. Originally built as a luxurious private yacht in 1984, she completed a major renovation in 2003 to update the cabins and all safety systems. She features 8 private cabins (double occupancy), 3 heads with hot showers and a comfortable salon with a natural history library. On deck, the large deckhouse provides a comfortable spot to watch for wildlife. ISLAND ODYSSEY is a certified passenger vessel by the Canadian Ministry of Transport. Sailors will love her easy roller-reefing and performance under sail. Everyone is welcome to get involved in the running of the ship.
