  1. Tracy Arm - Adventure Bound Alaska Board the 56' Adventure Bound or the 65' Captain Cook for an Unforgettable Glacier and Fjord Cruise. Tracy Arm, a classic fjord, has it all- tidewater and elevated glaciers, breathtaking mountains and sheer rock walls that reach up over a mile high with waterfalls that tumble down to the emerald green water, and Alaska's largest icebergs. Watch for whales, bears, mountain goats, hundreds of harbor seals, and a variety of birds such as eagles, arctic terns, kittiwakes, and pigeon guillemots. Our vessels have stable, smooth riding, ocean going hulls for the best cruise to Tracy Arm and Sawyer Glacier. A full walk-around deck and large cabin windows assure unobstructed views and great photo opportunities. Personal attention is unsurpassed.

  2. Adventure Bound Alaska Safety First Our vessels are United States Coast Guard inspected. They are equipped with long range radios, emergency beacons, Sonar, Radar, GPS and inflatable lifesaving equipment. Steven Weber, owner and operator, has over 35 years experience and is a licensed U.S. Merchant Marine officer. Concern for the Environment We comply with Federal regulations regarding waste management and wildlife viewing. Wildlife viewing is done with careful consideration for the animals. Food and Drink Food is available for purchase on board, and guests are welcome to bring their own. Prices are fair, not added to your fare and called "free". Sandwiches are made fresh for you by your deckhands. Choose from ham or turkey, with lettuce, tomato, swiss or cheddar cheese, mayonnaise, or mustard on a hoagie roll. Your deckhand would be happy to make a sandwich for you without meat and add in extra cheese or vegetables.

  3. Tracy Arm Located about 45 miles south of Juneau, Tracy Arm, a classic fjord, stands out as a "must see"for any Alaska vacation. Full day cruises depart from downtown Juneau and includes Alaska's greatest combination of mountains, waterfalls, wildlife, glaciers and icebergs. The face of Sawyer is a little more than a half mile wide, so there is plenty of space for both of our vessels to be at the face of the glacier. We turn off our engines and generators at the glacier so you can listen to the ice crackle and pop and take in the sights uninterrupted while you wait for the glacier to calve. Sawyer Glacier is an active tidewater glacier, which means it "calves" or breaks off. Pieces of ice anywhere from the size of a small car to a cruise ship fall off the face of the glacier and hit the water with a thunderous roar. No matter how many times you visit Sawyer Glacier, it is always a thrill to see a calving event. The water at the end of the fjord is nearly 600 feet deep and when an underwater calving takes place, the ice remains intact, giving us Alaska's largest icebergs. In other glacier areas, the calved ice generally crumbles.
