THE BOATS
The "Stikine Dream" was the first boat in Wrangell with forward facing seats and glass windows "all the way around". Heaters, bow ladder, overhead storage compartments are all popular items. Plus we can give you the "Wrangell Wiggle" on the Stikine River (Breakaway Link) Tour.....
The "Ocean Pro" is a deeper vee version of the Stikine Dream. It has a unheard of thick hull to take the abuse of icebergs on the LeConte Glacier (Breakaway Link) tour. So we can get you the great experience you deserve. Heaters, glass all around and forward facing seats are all advantages on the boat.
The "Motivator" is in a class by itself. This landing craft vessel has a football field of room in the bow and super easy access to the shoreline to explore the great sights at Anan Bear Observatory (Breakaway Link). Plus riding in the aft portion of the boat makes the choppy waves smoooooth. Dual Heaters, glass all around and lots of elbow room are all pluses on this boat.
The "Glacier Chaser" is the only 6 passenger boat in Wrangell with walk upright into the cabin, forward facing seats, sliding glass windows, heated etc.. With many of the features as the "Stikine Dream" and "Ocean Pro". Seating for 8 passengers but we operate it as a "6 passenger" vessel. Locally built to our specifications it is a great general purpose vessel built for folks that want a more intimate personal experience.
