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

Not a cruising guide but rather a collection of boating experiences and learning curves, OOPS! Boating's Close Encounters and Awkward Moments, is Peter Vassilopoulos's latest work. It has a touch of humor and a number of serious boating situations to be avoided. The book concludes with advice on buying a boat and some input on safety and regulations by naval architect John Simpson.

The Waggoner Cruising Guide is often called "....the Bible for Northwest Cruising". Each year it is extensively updated to provide the latest information covering each cruising area along with detailed listings of moorage and fuel facilities. There's text on anchorages, Local Knowledge, the "flavor" of each area, some history, and list on things to see and do. Lots of maps and photos, too. (The Waggoner contains 150 maps and 375 photos.)

Ports and Passes is the most complete reference guide for tide and current information along our beautiful coastline. The book is easy to use and includes the majority of the primary and secondary tide and current data stations. The guide is adjusted for daylight savings time, a convenience over the Canadian Government publications. It includes tide and current prediction table coverage for the coastal area from Olympia, WA to Prince Rupert BC. Ports and Passes also includes information on local knowledge and other information useful to the cruising mariner.
