Welcome to NW Explorations located in beautiful Bellingham, Washington with the San Juan and Gulf Islands at our door step. Not only are we a yacht brokerage, we are the world's only authorized Grand Banks charter fleet with 15 Grand Banks including an Eastbay. This offers a unique opportunity for our customers to charter a boat before buying one.

The company has been in business since 1978 and was purchased by two enthusiastic Grand Banks owners with a passion for customer service and boating. Broker Scott Blake has been selling Grand Banks (new and used) for over 17 years, has owned a number of Grand Banks over the years, and presently owns a 46' Grand Banks Classic. Paulette Bergh has been boating for 24 years; working in the marine industry for 9. A licensed captain, she also teaches the NW Exploration powerboat training course.

Our office is at Gate 3 in Squalicum Harbor. Please come visit us if you are looking to buy, sell, or charter a boat.
