Crewed Yacht Charter - The Personalized Cruise Alternative

Alaska Charter Cruise, aboard a classic yacht with a professional crew offering  customized cruises in Southeast Alaska and the Pacific Northwest.  Cruise itineraries and gourmet menus are custom tailored to each group's interests, preferences and tastes.

Explorer's crew includes your Captain who is a U.S. Coast Guard licensed Master, certified as a Naturalist, a licensed Alaska Fishing Guide, a Gourmet Chef as well as a First Mate/Steward/Chef with over 25 years combined Alaska experience.  2005 will be our tenth season offering custom charter cruises in Alaska.  We are known for our fine cuisine, fun & gracious crew, unique collection of original Northwest art and warm hospitality.  Explorer accommodates groups of up to six guests who will cruise Alaska  in comfort, safety and style.

Experience the real wonder beauty, majestic scenery and teeming wildlife of Alaska, in the places the big cruise ships don't visit. With her warm, tastefully decorated interior, roll-stabilizers, climate-control systems and a spacious deck-plan, Explorer is the perfect "little ship" from which to enjoy the grand scenery, teeming wildlife, fishing and unique history of the 49th state.

POWER & MOTORYACHT  magazine published  an article about Explorer in March 1999, .  The editor, along with his daughter and father came on an Alaska cruise with us in 1998.  Mr. Thiel in his letter to us said, "... I just wanted to take a moment to tell you what a marvelous time my daughter, my dad, and I had aboard Explorer. Being chief editor of a major boating magazine, I've spent a lot of time aboard a lot of boats. I can tell you that I've never been more comfortable, eaten better food, or dealt with friendlier, more competent people. It was truly a trip to remember."  - Richard Thiel, Editor In Chief, Power & Motoryacht  To read Mr. Thiel's article click HERE
