With Alaska Yacht Charters is you will see whales and dolphins so close that you will reach out as if to touch them- all of this in luxury, comfort and safety.
The Alaskan Story is a ninety-foot Westport Motor/Yacht, which was completely rebuilt from 2003-2006 to make her uniquely suitable for exploring Alaska. She has an enclosed raised pilothouse where while watching the captain navigating the waters you get a spectacular view of everything. She was designed with multiple “common areas” where you can sightsee, read, listening to music, view videos, or just relax. The guest staterooms are below deck and each has a bathroom with shower ensuite. All of the staterooms have hanging lockers and ample storage. Two staterooms have walk-a-round Queens and two have two twin beds.
The Alaskan Story can comfortably seat 10 persons in the enclosed aft deck. The covered side walkways lead to a large forward decks where there is additional seating. The Alaskan Story is powered by powerful diesel engines, which allow her to cruise at 10 - 12 knots and considerably more if necessary. She has two of everything to make certain that your experience will not be affected by mechanical malfunctions. Her broad beam and Naiad stabilizers make her a very comfortable yacht. The Story has a 17-foot Boston Whaler and a 14-foot inflatable and each is powered by new four- stroke outboards. The Whaler is equipped with downriggers and a fish-finder. For those who prefer to fish from the Mother ship the Alaskan Story has a cockpit, which also has downriggers.
In 2006 the Story, a 90-foot Westport, got an all-new teak interior and most of the machinery was replaced or rebuilt. She is “better than new.” She has two new generators producing 110 and 220v AC and a water-maker, which makes up to 1200 gallons of water a day. Alaska Yacht Charter’s Alaskan Story truly provides all the comforts of the nicest of homes.
In 2005 Alaska Yacht Charters after 15 years of effort was awarded a high season permit to explore Glacier Bay. The Alaskan Story is one of only a select few yachts over 65 feet allowed to charter during the high season from June through August within the waters of this crown jewel of the our national park system. The National Park Service made its selections based on the financial strength, experience, and environmental sensitivity of the competing charter companies, which were all considered by the National Park Service in making this selection. We are honored to be able to offer this experience to our guests.
