“Loved every minute! Oysters, jumping off the boat, hiking to the lakes, the waterfalls, kayaking and the champagne buckets.”

–Jeff Ament, PJ

Introduction Built in 1943 as a US military vessel, the Pacific Yellowfin’s storied past is as mysterious and elusive as the seas it has traversed. Once the home of millionaires and mischief-makers, today, Captain, owner and self-professed sufferer of “wooden boat disease,” Colin Griffinson is at the helm.

After undergoing several refits, this WW2 Vet now offers exclusive private charters, unparalleled service and unforgettable sights. Motor through BC’s Mediterranean-like Gulf Islands on a culinary cruise sampling the region’s freshest fare in organic produce, artisan cheese and just-caught Dungeness crabs. Discover the marine playground of Desolation Sound—a boater’s dream—by kayaking, canoeing and swimming through sheltered inlets and coves. Dive into the wild through the Inside Passage. For the ultimate wildlife adventure, see humpback and killer whales, bears, Steller Sea Lions, harbour seals and porpoises on an eco-tour through the Great Bear Rainforest.

Few active travel companies cruise the coast of British Columbia by private expedition yacht, and none can boast one as stellar as the M.V. Pacific Yellowfin. Its unmistakable charm emanates a sense of home-away-from-home that you wouldn’t expect from a luxury liner.

Appointed in teak, mahogany, and oak, this luxurious yacht has four staterooms, a main saloon, galley kitchen and fantail deck where guests recount their daily adventures with friends and family over a glass of wine. Its tenders and toys (jet skis, motorbikes, sea kayaks) make any locale the ultimate playground for unforgettable memories. The Pacific Yellowfin blends seamlessly with its natural environs as she incorporates all elements of West Coast culture in her presentation and services.

Desolation Sound, the largest and perhaps best-known archipelago in British Columbia, is considered by many boaters to be one of the top three cruising grounds in the world, along with Fiji and New Zealand’s Bay of Islands. The waters of Desolation Sound are calm, sheltered and warm with lots of protected anchorages, and plentiful oysters, clams, prawns and salmon. The archipelago consists of more than 14,000 acres of high land and 6,350 acres of shoreline and water. There are also numerous lakes and waterfalls in Desolation Sound, and the warmest salt water north of Mexico (75 - 82° degrees Fahrenheit!) awaiting swimmers in Pendrell Sound.

Captain George Vancouver who first sailed here in 1792, saw a silent and remote coast. He named the area Desolation Sound. The shoreline varies from low rolling hills to 4,500 foot peaks with many protected anchorages tucked into bays, coves and inlets.

The sheltered waters, islands and bays of Desolation Sound are suitable for exploration by small boats, kayaks and canoes with many opportunities to enjoy swimming, fishing, picnicking and hiking.

The marine environment hosts humpback whales, killer whales, Steller Sea Lions, Dall’s Porpoises and harbour seals.

Totems and Orcas: A Cruise through the Inside Passage

The “Broughton Archipelago” forms the buffer between the rough open waters of the Queen Charlotte Sound and the narrow convoluted waterways of the inner Inside Passage.

At its western edge, rugged little islands with unusual names such as White Cliff and Fog Islets take the rough weather blowing in from the north-west. Deep surge channels, steep cliffs and stunted trees are common features. Further east larger islands offer protected anchorages for the many yachts that cruise these waters but still offering an “edge of the wild” experience. The archipelago offers an exceptionally rich marine environment.
