Duen's Journey
Reputed to be one of the most beautiful wooden boats on the British Columbia coast, Duen's Journey is a true Classic. 22 meters (72') long overall, a traditional Norwegian designed Galeas gaff rigged ketch. She is large enough for comfort and privacy, and small enough to create a great ambience for the eight passengers and three crew. Duen's interior was completely renovated in 1994 with the warmth of golden fir, pine and ship's brass. Guest sleeping accommodations consist of four double or twin cabins with wash basin, skylights and porthole. For additional privacy they are also totally separated from the crew's quarters. Dining with newfound friends over a glass of wine and a fine meal can be enjoyed in three locations on the vessel. Guests can enjoy the social atmosphere below deck around the extensive natural history library and warmth of the Norwegian stove, above deck in the Pilothouse, or around the large on deck dining table for barbecues and sunsets. From the minute she came into view in the lagoon of the uninhabited island of Suvarov in 1978 until today, she has changed lives and continues to provide adventurous and fun filled experiences for all aboard.
