Getting your boat to the water
Where you can get boats
Every rental starts in Wasilla, where we hand off the boat and gear with an in-person safety briefing. From there, you can run it yourself — or, for the truly remote trips, send it ahead by air cargo into the backcountry.
Fly it into the bush
We package your boat for flight so it can ship on air cargo to remote villages — places like St. Mary's and other off-the-road-system hubs across western and northern Alaska.
You arrange the carrier.You'll need to book an air cargo carrier that serves your destination and have them quote the freight for your boat and gear. Share the packed specs below with your carrier to get an estimate. Reach out and we'll help you coordinate the hand-off and packaging.
