Blackwood Motor Yacht

Based in Anchorage, Alaska, the 103ft (31m) motor yacht Blackwood was built in 1998 by Broward. She offers 4 cabins – 1 King, 2 Queen and 1 Twin – for up to 8 guests, with a crew of 4 who know these waters inside out.

Local Expertise

What sets Blackwood apart is her crew’s deep familiarity with Alaska. They know the best anchorages, the hidden restaurants, and the quietest swimming spots that most visitors never find. Guests enjoy a swim platform, a BBQ area, and an outdoor bar alongside a daily rhythm shaped entirely by local knowledge and the group’s interests. At 15 knots, the best of Alaska is always within easy reach, and the crew adapts each day’s plan around conditions and preferences.

Water Sports

7 water toys including a SUP board, four kayaks, and towable inflatables are on board. The 32' Heated Kingfisher Tender and 14' Zodiac connects guests to beaches, villages, and snorkeling sites across the area. All equipment is managed by the crew so guests stay focused on enjoying each stop.

Charter from Anchorage

Operating year-round from Anchorage, Blackwood covers the finest cruising grounds in Alaska. The best months to charter are Jun, Jul, Aug, when conditions are ideal. The captain tailors each route around the group’s preferences, offering the kind of insider itinerary that only a locally based yacht can provide.
