Skipper Maren at the helm
The yacht and your skipper

Spacious, stable, and in good hands.

Wingaway is a 40 ft Beneteau Oceanis made for comfortable evenings on the water, with wide decks, cushioned cockpit seating and plenty of space underway.

Maren grew up racing dinghies, lived aboard for stretches, and once sailed his family to Mexico. These days he skippers harbour and evening sails, and cruises the Gulf Islands when he isn’t. He knows these waters well enough that the wildlife, the tides and the best evening light are all part of the same conversation.

★★★★★
“Unbelievable experience and best way to see Vancouver. Maren the captain was fantastic, friendly and super knowledgeable. Would highly recommend for both locals and tourists.”

Common questions

Before you sail.

Do I need sailing experience?

No. Every sail is fully skippered. Your skipper handles the boat, so you can relax and enjoy the coastline.

Is it good for a proposal or anniversary?

Yes, it’s one of our most popular choices. The whole boat is yours, the light is extraordinary, and the setting is hard to beat.

What should I wear?

Bring a warm layer: it can be cool on the water even in summer. A light windproof jacket, flat soft-soled shoes and sunglasses are best.

What if the weather changes?

We sail in typical coastal weather. If conditions are unsafe, we contact you in advance with options, including a reschedule or a full refund.

Can I bring food or drinks?

Yes. Sparkling water and snacks are included, and you’re welcome to bring extra food or non-alcoholic drinks. There’s a cooler on board.

What time does it leave?

Most evenings, timed to sunset for that time of year. The booking calendar shows the departure times.

Something else? Get in touch or call (778) 200-9277.
