Our onboard chef, Cassidy and her boyfriend, Erik are enjoying their first few days in Sitka!
Erik made our morning exciting with his first king salmon and what a beauty it was! Congrats, Erik!

This is what kept the Takeena stationary for over a month while working with a film production company! Heavy metal parking brake! Much thanks to our dear friend, Paul, for the hookup!

Playing flip the rock at low tide can yield some calories for the coming winter.
At thirty feet away, it was really a great experience to hear the rocks tumble and the seaweed pop under the weight of this bears feet!
We love sharing these experiences with others! Join us in 2022 for some unique views!

There is something to be said about getting up with the birds.

The bow bulbous of the M/V Takeena not only increases speed and stability but porpoises love riding the wake it creates. They’ve been known to “surf” with the boat for miles.
These ones are Dall’s Porpoises which always have the NEED FOR SPEED! These guys make their living by running down squid, herring, pollock, and silver hake in the offshore environment of Alaskan waters. Traveling in groups of sometimes up to 50 individuals, these underwater 5’ long rocketships are the envy of all human swimmers

Brrrr! When it’s chilly outside some fresh caught 🦐 spot prawns 🦐 can make that winter sunshine feel just a tad warmer!

Pine marten are a fur-bearing member of the weasel family that weigh about 3 pounds and typically live a pretty short life of 4-6 years. These little buggers are constantly on the move hunting for their primary food source: Voles. However, anything made of meat that they encounter as they bound through the countryside usually is next on the menu!
This marten in the video responded to a fawn-in-distress call used for deer hunting. .
