change is in the air...

Cooper Boating will soon become part of the NW EXPLORATIONS brand in Canada. We’ll have a different logo and website, but our team will still continue to serve our customers on this side of the border – with the same warm hospitality that you’ve experienced these past few years.

Next time you visit you may be re-directed to our new website. There you’ll be able to see our entire fleet, our updated training options, and so much more. We look forward to seeing you on the water again in 2024!

Enjoy an extensive fleet of sail and power yachts based along British Columbia’s beautiful West Coast. Choose your perfect yacht and enjoy easy access to all your favourite destinations.

Our world class charter agency training program will help you become comfortable and competent so you can enjoy a lifetime of boating opportunities and world-class cruising along our beautiful coast.
