What a perfect vacation! The right mix of relaxing down time and active activities, delicious food, and the Alaskan wildlife and nature are AMAZING. Captain Anderson and Monique are perfect hosts - they tailored the experience to exactly what our group wanted and I already want to go back!

FYI: Blain and Monique are superlative hosts / tour guides / storytellers. Anyone who is able to take a trip with them through the wonder that is Alaska, can say it was a trip of a lifetime. Prior to this trip, my family and I had no experience with any sailing experience. In fact, I'd never set foot in an ocean cruise or a boat bigger than a kayak. Seeing as how we were in the mood for travel, but the rest of the world was not in the mood for US tourists, we jumped at the chance to go to Alaska - the farthest we can get in this new era - and quarantine ourselves on a sailboat with Blain and Monique. They turned out to be the warmest, kindest hosts you could ever hope to meet. From the first moment of sitting together in the cabin and seeing them draw out the map of our upcoming adventure, to tasting their culinary skills upon each fresh catch of the day, to playing board games every evening, to listening to yarns about baby otters and crazy oceans... every minute was a blast. This was a typical day: wake up to a fresh, delicious breakfast. Go up on deck to spot whale tails. Read while sipping hot coffee or tea. Explore a mussel-covered beach or woodsy path. Repeat. There were hours upon hours for talking, reading, musicking, and resting your mind in silence while being hypnotized by blue waves. I would reconsider this trip if 1) you're traveling with people you dislike (a sailboat is a pretty cozy space), 2) you have a pathological fear of whales (even through binoculars), or 3) you must have Wi-Fi access (the feeling of freedom from not having internet was a relief for my family). Otherwise, follow Blain and Monique's packing list instructions carefully and prepare to have an incredible time.

Absolutely amazing Alaskan experience. Family trip with my wife and 3 teenagers and probably the best family vacation we've ever done. Sailed from Juneau from Sitka and brought back memories for a lifetime. Boat was incredible. Monique was fantastic. And Blaine wasn't bad either. ;-) Can't wait to go back!

This week long tour of S.E. Alaska was totally eye-opening for us about the breadth and incredible beauty of SE Alaska. Blain and Monique are excellent hosts; their flexibility and collaboration and humor are evident as they share each day's work. They create a very casual, welcoming atmosphere even though they're working hard to keep the trip on schedule, etc. We learned about sleeping whales - something we, as experienced NW sailors, knew nothing about! Sailing and motoring to a variety of islands brought us to beautiful hikes and beach walks. We loved the stop at Tenakee Springs - what special place. The beach fire and s'mores on the last night - with a perfect sunset - brought us back to camping days. We'd definitely come again!

What an amazing time! Blain and Monqiue were the most incredible hosts - knowledgable, fun, caring. We sailed around from Juneau and saw amazing wildlife, hit some hot springs, and really got to enjoy the company of each other and Blain and Monique. I couldn't have asked for a better vacation, they made us feel completely at ease and taken care of, while also letting us get in on some of the fun in catching our food. Never had a better time and I can only hope I get to sail with the BOB and co. again!
