The Sacajawea was originally purchased in 1977 for use as a charter boat taking trips into the San Juan Islands and the Canadian Gulf Islands during the summer months.
She became Coast Guard Certified in the Spring of 1978 and was certified for 32 people. Staterooms were added to accomodate up to 8 passengers and she began doing 6/7 day trips into the San Juans and then 10 / day daytrips into the Canadian Gulf Islands- traveling as far north as Desolation Sound and the Campbell River area.
She cruised these waters for just over 25 years taking countless passengers into these special waters and ports of call. During the off season, the Sacajawea was used for group cruises in and around the waters of the Puget Sound, Lake Union and Lake Washington. Birthdays, Weddings, Husky Tailgating, Christmas Cruises, Seafair, Business Cruises, Salmon Derbies, and any number of other group cruises was large part of the makeup of the Sacajawea.
