Saferafer, cleaner, faster, and more fun... the Northern Lights was built to catch Alaskan halibut. Our state-of-the-art electronics include sophisticated computer navigation, 3-D bathymetrics, and digital fish finding. We meticulously clean and maintain the Northern Lights and to back us up the U.S. Coast Guard inspects her every May. Safety is foremost as all life-saving equipment is also inspected and rafts are repacked every year. We examine all aspects of the Northern Lights in the winter to improve and incorporate the latest technologies. What more will we do to always exceed your expectations? Whatever is necessary!
- number 1A little uneasy about being on a boat? Just one example of our concern for safety is our railing. Built with 1 and 1/4 inch diameter stainless when production boats all have 7/8" or 1". It is 36" nominal height which is waist high on most adults. Speaking of railing, with ten passengers on board there's nine feet of railspace per person. Do the math on a typical six-passenger boat... or we'll do it for you. The figure is four feet or less. We also have a wider beam for less rocking!

number 2ICOM radios and RADAR (for seeing other boats in fog). Without question, one of the best performing RADARs on the market today. Nobeltec A.I.S. (automatic identification system) recieves information from all ships in the area including the name and type of vessel, position, speed, and heading. This isn't required on charter vessels, unbelievably, so we're the only one that has it!

number 3Nobeltec PC based chart plotter and infinite color bathymetric charts. Is this even fair?

number 4Raytheon duel frequency fishfinder with HD Digital technology adapts to changing water and seabed conditions with a dramatically clearer picture. InSight PC based depthfinder for safety and fishing delivers exceptional target (Halibut!) and bottom detail not available on conventional systems.

number 5Insulated below-deck fish boxes to keep your catch fresh. Most boats keep fish in aluminum boxes or garbage cans... in the sun. Really!

number 6Royal Flush marine toilet (Don't drop your keys!) helps the Northern Lights have the cleanest bathroom of any boat!
