🍕+🍻+⛵ = the perfect delivery.
There’s a first for everything… including running pizza and beer out to a hungry crew of sailors!

Watch till the end to hear the cheers when starts tossing 6-packs from Sound Traveler straight to the boat. 🎯 ⛵️

Safe to say we’ve officially added “floating pizza + beer delivery” to our charter services. 😉

What do you call a floating frat house full of sea lions?
We don’t know either… yet. 😆 🦭🛟
That’s where you come in. 👇👇👇👇

🛶✨ Dragonfly Kayak Tours is doing something awesome — and we’re just the boat that drops you off at paradise.

We’re teaming up to ferry paddlers, gear, and dreams to Sucia Island, where kicks off their fully guided, fully catered, kayak-camping adventures.

Once we land? It’s all them.
You? You’re off the grid and on island time.
We’re just happy to take you!

🌲 Camp in waterfront bliss
🍽️ Eat like you didn’t paddle there
🛶 Kayak to hidden beaches + secret sandstone coves
🌿 Spot wildlife, explore tidepools, climb a rock or two
🌅 Watch the sun disappear behind the islands with a full belly and happy soul

We’re just the Uber. Dragonfly brings the magic.

📅 Book your spot directly with Dragonfly Kayak Tours before they’re gone — and we’ll see you at the dock. Link in their bio.

🌊💎 Sucia Island: The Crown Jewel of the San Juans 💎🌊
Sandstone cliffs, crystal coves, hidden beaches, and hiking trails that feel like they lead to another world — Sucia is a gem worth discovering.

We’ve got a couple seats left for Saturday morning’s day trip — hop on board and experience this sparkling slice of the Salish Sea for yourself. Forecast looks AMAZING this week.

Meet Kaiden ⚓️🐟
Now in his third season as a deckhand, Kaiden is a core part of our crew—and Captain in training. He’s been cruising the islands with his dad, Mark, since his car seat days, and it shows. Calm under pressure, quick to lend a hand, and always ready with a grin—Kaiden’s the guy you want on deck.

During the school year, he plays football for Mt. Baker High. In the summer, you’ll most likely find him here on the boat, helping guests —or, in this case… rescuing a lost cooler from the bay (🎥 swipe to see the surprise inside 🍻😆).

Whether he’s fishing, hunting, or just soaking in the salt air, Kaiden’s got saltwater in his blood and adventure in his bones. We’re lucky to have him.

Cold and clear reads the log book on Opportunity Knots the last few days. That’s a recipe for some flat water and amazing sunsets!
