The Boat Company has spent almost 40 years cruising Alaska, offering small boat tours carrying just 20 to 24 guests. We provide a more intimate setting for our passengers, a higher degree of personal attention from the crew, and greater freedom to go “off-itinerary” and craft a truly memorable Alaskan adventure for you. The Liseron and the Mist Cove are the perfect vessels for your family vacation, fishing charter or wilderness discovery adventure!
M/V Liseron was built in 1952 in Seattle, sold to France as a minesweeper, and then acquired and lovingly restored in 1989 by The Boat Company. She is 145 feet long and 28 feet wide with a draft of 8.5 feet.
Several years ago, we built the M/V Mist Cove patterned on the Liseron but designed from scratch. She’s 157 feet long and 33 feet wide, with a draft of almost 9 feet, and constructed of heavy-duty aluminum. The interior is plush and stately with mahogany accents throughout.
Food & Drink
Our food and wine program is second to none. Our chefs prepare every meal with love and attention to detail. We are able to accommodate most dietary restrictions/requirements. We also stock our vessels with great wine and top-shelf liquor. you won't be disappointed.

The Boat Company is a tax-exempt organization:
Revenue after costs goes to conserve/ preserve the forest, wildlife and fisheries of Southeast Alaska.
Deposit
25% of cruise cost. Balance due 90 days before departure.
Cancellation Policy
The Boat Company is a non-profit educational organization incorporated in the State of Alaska. Unlike cruise ship operations carrying hundreds or even thousands of passengers, if you reserve with us and then later find you must cancel, it will significantly impact our ability to cover expenses. Thus deposits and payments are refundable (less a $500 per person processing fee) only upon receipt of your written cancellation by December 1st of the year before your scheduled trip.
The refund policy differs from most Orvis trips. Your deposit is refundable less $500 prior to December 1st. After December 1st, deposits are non-refundable for any reason. We highly recommend that you get travel insurance that covers trip cancellation.
After December 1st refunds depend on reselling your space at the same price (less a $500 per person processing fee). If you do not have someone to take your place, we promise to do our best to re-sell it for you; however, we cannot guarantee success. Due to our need for a strict cancellation policy, we strongly recommend that you purchase travel insurance.

The Boat Company reserves the right to correct promotional or pricing errors at any time, or to increase the price in the event of cost increases due to park fee increases, state and/or federal taxes, fuel surcharges, etc.
