What is on the boat

Three levels to enjoy

Enjoy the open air on the top and middle decks, warm up in the enclosed second deck, or rest in one of two private bedrooms below.

Full galley

The galley is conveniently located on the second deck. Guests may bring prepared food, but cooking is not available onboard.

Two heads, one shower

With a proper enclosed shower, the practical difference between a short outing and a comfortable one.

Enclosed salon

Panoramic glass on all four sides and a heated cabin keep the scenery visible and guests comfortable in cooler weather.

Low air draft

The yacht's air draft is 11 feet 11 inches, an important detail considered by the captain when planning each river route.

Quiet and clean

No smoking or vaping of any kind, aboard or on deck. The boat is new and it is kept that way.

Two ways to charter

A day out, or several

Day charters

Departing Portland. Most groups choose a stretch of River they would like to see, as well as an idea of what they would like to experience, and then the Captain handles the details, including where to anchor and when to head back to port.

Overnight charters

With two cabins and two heads complete with a shower, your excursion can become an overnight charter, allowing you to see even more of the Gorge. Options include tie up to a dock or anchoring out for the night, and extending your charter overnight means you can wake up on the water!
