Capacity: Up to 16 guests (exclusive)

Set out aboard a deluxe catamaran to explore glacier-carved fjords and wild stretches of coast at your own pace.  Your knowledgeable Captain and expedition Naturalist will assist you to design a cruise adventure that incorporates your personal interests.  Let this one special day in Alaska become a part of you ~ forever.

As soon as you depart Juneau's picturesque harbor it is apparent why Alaska's capitol city is not accessible by road.  The steep mountain slopes surrounding town are grooved by countless avalanche chutes and waterfalls.  Your private, expedition-style catamaran is the perfect vehicle for exploring this region's ice-hewn fjords and rugged coasts.

Enjoy almost limitless opportunities for discovery.  If you want to observe whales, sea lions, porpoise, bears and bald eagles - your skilled captain has a profound understanding of their preferred habitats and patterns of movement.   He also knows the best places to explore and photograph glacier-carved peaks, untamed river deltas, secluded inlets, tidal estuaries and other natural wonders.

If 'hands on" Alaska is your style, you may opt to haul crab pots to get a close-up look at denizens of the deep, or stop by a commercial fishing boat at work to talk with the crew and admire the day's catch.  And, if you wish, step ashore in a wild place of your choosing - to explore tide pools, hike on game trails through old-growth forest, or just savor the peacefulness of an untouched land.

Your expedition craft is a new, 38-foot catamaran, designed specially for custom cruising.  The spacious, heated cabin provides deluxe seating for sixteen, a restroom and galley.  The vessel also features large wrap-around windows, an expansive open-air deck, and is fitted with a special bow-landing door to allow easy beach access.  This day is yours.  Explore the Inside Passage wilderness as you please.

Note:  Guests should dress warmly in layers, and wear sturdy footgear if planning to go ashore.  Be sure to bring your camera to capture the many photographic opportunities!
