Hello! As a Vancouver native, I'm excited to offer you a unique and premium opportunity to experience my beautiful city from the water. I bring an authentic and deep understanding of our local waterways, honed not only here at home but also from my time operating international charter tours in Malta. My charter business is my full-time passion, which means I have great flexibility to create the perfect private tour for your schedule. My operation is fully licensed and professional, ensuring your safety and comfort are my top priorities. The centerpiece of my service is my classic 1962 Monk McQueen motor yacht. This beautifully refurbished 40-foot vessel is licensed for up to 12 passengers and comes fully equipped with amenities like a kitchen and bathroom to make you feel right at home during our excursion. I offer a variety of private tour themes, all with a minimum duration of four hours. We can embark on a sightseeing journey to admire the city's impressive skyline from a new perspective, take an immersive nature tour up our stunning local fjords to seek out wildlife, or even try our hands at a fun marine adventure like crabbing. I provide all the necessary licenses! On every trip, I will be your personal captain, accompanied by a first mate to ensure a seamless and enjoyable experience. While I don't offer hotel pick-ups, I provide convenient meeting points at public wharves, including one right next to the Cactus Club, which is ideal for anyone arriving on a cruise ship. I look forward to welcoming you aboard!

The Pacific West Coast has some of the most beautiful sunsets in the world. The voyage will venture along the False Creek shoreline, quietly passing by floating homes, marinas and parks as we cruise to the Olympic Village and Science World. The Yacht also cruises past condos in Yaletown, David Lam Park and Sunset Beach on the way to English Bay and Spanish Banks to anchor in anticipation of the sunset before returning to Granville Island. Relax on board with your favourite beverage and snacks while witnessing one of the world's most iconic sunsets. Get your camera ready for beautiful scenery, sea birds and the occasional seal.
Pick up at the hotel or cruise terminal with a minibus and head to Granville Island wharf to meet the yacht for departure. We will leisurely cruise along the False Creek shoreline before heading under the Burrard Street Bridge out to English Bay. We will cruise along the famous Stanley Park shoreline, navigating under the Lions Gate Bridge into the Vancouver Harbour. Seaplanes, yachts and the city skyline await our arrival. We will cruise the harbour, taking in all the sights and sounds before returning under the Lions Gate bridge toward Spanish Banks, where we will anchor awaiting our sunset. Eat, drink and be merry. After the sunset, we will return to Granville Island, where you will be transported back to your accommodations.
