Our forty-two foot Californian "The Kahsteen" accomodates up to six guests for our Glacier Bay sightseeing tours and expeditions.

There are two full size double beds in a large aft cabin and two single berths in a smaller forward cabin. Both have their own head and shower. A spacious main cabin and open fly bridge make viewing and photography effortless.
