We've come a long way since our original store on Columbia Street! In 2015, Captain's moved from the Interbay store on 15th Ave to a historic building in Seattle's Ballard neighborhood.

Our "new" store gives us more space, better displays, and a great neighborhood to share.

Founded by Max Kuner during the Klondike Gold Rush, Captain's has prepared mariners for the North Pacific for more than a century.

From tugboats and fishboats to sailboats and kayaks, from nautical charts to topo maps, Captain's has the experience to help plan your perfect voyage wherever you travel.

We carry both BSB Raster Navigational Charts and S-57 vector Electronic Navigational Charts for Canadian Waters

Textbooks, study guides, training charts, and everything needed to prepare for US Coast Guard exams

U.S. Flags for boats, ships, homes, businesses, indoor and outdoor display. Made with pride in the USA.

Ship's clocks, barometers, thermometers, sextants, digital weather stations, and more
