What Makes Us Different

Water Ponds in Sandstone, San Juan Islands: Click for larger imageThe primary difference between Sail Northwest Charters and other charter companies is that we own and care for our own boats. There are no 'odors' on our boats. As owners we treat our boats as homes, with comfortable beds, immaculate restrooms, spacious upholstered sitting areas, and countless personal touches. Never again will you pay extra for all the little details like matches, salt and pepper, sugar, and spices for example. You will be treated to an experience comparable to a fine hotel as you sail through the incredible San Juan Islands and are rocked to sleep by the waves.

Furthermore, we are also intimately knowledgeable with the systems and operations of our boats, anticipating repairs and ensuring a quality experience. As such you can expect that our boats will be safe, comfortable, and sailable.

Another notable difference between Sail Northwest and other charter companies is our dedication to your entire experience. We are happy to advise you regarding accommodations for transportation to and from the airport, provision your boat if you wish, offer flexible check out times, and offer several different charter options. For example, on selected weeks you can purchase a single cabin on our 50-foot Beneteau to share the cost of the trip and meet new people who also enjoy the sailing experience. The cost of a private cabin for two is $2800 the six day cruise. Our goal is to make it possible for everyone to enjoy the beauty of the San Juan's and the excitement of chartering.

At Sail Northwest we take care of everything, you just relax and enjoy your week on our beautiful boats.
