Vancouver Island Yacht Charters

This was our first charter with Nanaimo Yacht Charter, and it was by far the best experience we've had on a sailboat. The company is focused on the details, which when added together makes for a fabulous experience from luxurious towels and linens to a nicely stocked galley (with foil, plastic wrap, high-quality coffee, creamer/sugar, variety of pots, dishes, cooking utensils, and more).

Before we left, they provided a stack of charts and books, and when we returned, they'd moved our car in front of the dock so it was easy to unload. We appreciated their personal touch, ensuring we had everything we needed for a memorable week, sailing on the Sunshine Coast.

At one marina, we meet another sailor who'd chartered from Nanaimo Yacht Charter for ten years. They also shared how the company provides first-class service and ensure their vessels are in top-shape for sailing or motoring.

This is a great company. We were kept informed at every step of the way. We were treated like family and all of our needs were met in a timely friendly manner. The boat "Skookum Chuck" was just what we expected and in great working order. We are chartering with them again in August and would recommend Naniamo Yacht Charters to anyone that is looking to discover British Columbia by boat.

After taking lessons through NYC I was eligible to charter on my own for the first time. I brought three totally novice friends. After one day with a fantastic instructor (Barry) we were off on our own for 6 more days. Perfect boat, very well equipped. Many extras provided.. charts, compass, binoculars..great service from pickup to drop off. Really appreciate the van to get supplies.
