We are based out of the village of Talkeetna where the Susitna, Talkeetna and Chulitna Rivers meet. From our location we access over 200 miles of remote wilderness. Due to the diversity of our waters, our inboard jet boats have been custom-designed for safety and comfort by Steve Mahay. We operate 24’, 27’, 33′, 44’ and 47′ boats that travel at an average cruising speed of 35 mph. Perfectly suited for our shallow braided rivers, these boats require only inches of water to operate, allowing us to access many tributary streams that may seem impassable. Our guides are licensed captains by the U.S. Coast Guard and our vessels are Coast Guard inspected. Our guides bring to you years of local experience insuring you a safe and professional trip.
