What It's Actually Like, at Sea, on an Explorer Yacht

What It's Actually Like, at Sea, on an Explorer Yacht

We’re about halfway through our journey from Alaska to Puget Sound, and it’s time to put our assumptions about explorer yachts to the test. On the surface, these boats are big, bold, and undeniably capable. The EarthRoamer of the sea. But do they also live up to the "motorboat" stereotypes of being loud, smelly, and fuel-guzzling beasts?

Assumptions, as they often are, can be a lot like Swiss cheese. Full of holes and melt when tested in the real world. So, we’re setting aside theory and diving headfirst into the ultimate field test.

But this trip isn’t only about engines, fuel burn, and comfort at sea. It’s about discovering how far a vessel like this can take us. Is a yacht like this the right tool for our next journey (high latitude fjords and glaciers).

Join us as we swap assumptions for real-world answers and discover one incredible anchorage after another along the way. Zipping past sea lions, paddling into hidden coves, and hiking through towering forests where few people ever set foot.
