Steveston Fisherman's Wharf - EXPLORATHOR II & EXPLORATHOR EXPRESS (EXPLORED-Thank-you!)

            Richmond, BC Canada

EXPLORATHOR II

The Explorathor is the largest vessel in our fleet, and was built locally in North Vancouver by ABD Shipyards. It is a 47 passenger, open/semi-covered zodiac style vessel, with a covered seating area in the rear and is equipped with a washroom.

This vessel operates covered during the Spring and Fall and operates as an open air vessel from mid-June to mid-September. The bow of Explorathor has a clear glass roof and large windows that slide up and down for unobstructed viewing. The highlight feature of this vessel is the upper level observation deck that supply’s passengers with a 360 view and the opportunity to see the whales from another vantage point.

EXPLORATHOR EXPRESS

The Express is a 45-passenger open/semi-covered zodiac style vessel, and was built locally in North Vancouver by ABD Shipyards. It offers a fast and comfortable ride, ideal for families and groups. The bow of the Express has a clear glass roof and large windows that slide up and down to provide unobstructed viewing of the whales. Just like Explorathor, this vessel was custom designed for marine mammal viewing.

The zodiac style hull allows for a smooth ride over the water which reduces the chances of passenger seasickness. This vessel operates on the same schedule as Explorathor so will operate as an open-air vessel mid-June to mid-September.
