Alaska's Outstanding Crew        Southeastern Alaska has long been one of the most intriguing tourist destinations in the United States.   Most people have opted to visit these beautiful waters in cruise ships or aboard the Alaska Ferries.  In recent years a small group of capable charter yachts has taken up summer operations and now presents an opportunity to see Alaska from the best vantage point possible.  Only from a smaller vessel can the grandeur and abundant sea life of Alaska be fully appreciated.  Because a cruise aboard a private charter yacht is yours, it can be tailored for the particular interests and preferences of your group.   If you fall in love with one spot, spend an extra day there.  You dictate the schedule, the schedule does not dictate to you.  And think of the convenience.   Meals are served when you want them.  No lines to go ashore.  No loud speakers to make announcements.  Nothing in fact to spoil the peaceful quiet but the sounds of nature.      You can catch salmon until your arms say "no more" or watch mighty humpback whales and Orca, Alaska is the place.  Glacial Fjords are filled with returning Salmon.  Massive brown bears feed by the river banks.   Bald eagles are nearly as numerous as the Sea Gulls.  For those who love wildlife and majestic scenery, and for those who want to get closer to this natural splendor, a charter vacation in Alaska will deliver the vacation of dreams.      Visit Tracy Arm to view the calving of icebergs from the tidal glaciers.  Bring an ice pick and chill your drink that evening with ten thousand year old ice.  You can stop in some of the historical villages of the area to see traces of the old Russian culture with their orthodox churches, and you will thrill to the rich artistic tradition of the Haida and Tlingit native people.      Custom side trips can be arranged as well.  You can visit one of the many fishing lodges, or fly over the glaciers to one of the lakes to experience the best fly fishing in North America.   This part of the world is famous for tours by plane.  You can, this way, see areas too difficult to visit by sea or land.      May and June are the most reliably dry months and offer the best fishing for King Salmon.  July and August are a bit wetter but are also warmer and  provide the best Silver Salmon fishing.   Halibut and Crab can be found all summer.  Fresh Salmon, Halibut, Dungeness Crab and Spot Prawns are some of the fresh delights that await your choice on board.
