Accessible Fishing
After years of planning the new boat is now ready and operational! Our new accessible boat is a fishing machine and welcomes anyone, including people in wheelchairs, elderly visitors, pets, children, and babies in strollers.
Wheelchair Accessible
A tall rail system encases the casting deck and is removable, enabling a piece to come out so a ramp can be connected and secured to the boat launch. Wheelchairs can also roll straight from the dock onto the boat, with another on-deck ramp providing access to the stern.
Northern BC Lakes & Rivers
We can access a select number of lakes and rivers across BC that are not only suitable for the boat but also provide great fishing opportunities for Trout, Char, Kokanee, and Salmon. We cater to all experience levels and types of fishing and will customize a plan to your liking.
Family Friendly
Measuring in at 20' long and 8' wide this heavy-duty aluminum boat is as tough as it is accommodating. The boat has a capacity for two people in wheelchairs, plus 3 more adults and the captain. The railing encasement is perfect for young children and pets.
