Cruise A Homes – Northwest Retro Boating

Cruise A Homes look like houseboats, but are built on very seaworthy fishing boat hulls.  Over 500 Cruise A Homes were built in Washington State in the 1970s, and were commonly cruised to Alaska and back.  Our 30′ sleeps 4, has a huge flybridge, galley and head, and is an excellent day rental or overnight.  Our 40′, (two time Alaska veteran)  has a large salon, two sleeping cabins, head, and large flybridge.  It makes a great day tripper or multi day rental.  Go crabbing, cook the crabs, have a crab feast, and sleep it off, all on the same boat.  Our 30′ is a great day tripping party boat, and also sleeps 4.
