INTRODUCING SEA NORTH’S VESSELS
COVER: Photo © Alex de Vries-Magnifico
We are committed to the safety and health of the beluga whale and all our equipment is chosen, or custom designed, to ensure both you and the whales have an excellent experience. All of our boat motors are equipped with Prop Guards® and Aquarian H1A hydrophones enabling our guests to listen to the whales sing.
Prop Guard® is a two piece plastic injection molded cage that will completely cover the propeller. The Prop Guard® is attached by a specially designed clamp system and bolts. The Prop Guard’s® two halves are attached like a clam shell to the cavitation plate and the skeg of any outboard or stern drive motor.

Zodiac Boats
We love our whales and are committed to their safety. Sea North Tours is 100% beluga whale and marine mammal safe and friendly. Our Mark IV, Mark V & F580 EOD Military spec built Zodiacs are equipped with clean, quiet Honda four-stroke outboard motors with all propellers shielded by the original Prop Guards®. They are inflatable boats that are piloted by experienced guides that are out on the water everyday.

Sea North II
The Sea North II Transport Canada Certified Vessel is a one of a kind custom-built 32 passenger tour boat. Among its special design features are twin Hamilton jet pumps turned by Volvo Penta diesels. This method of propulsion ensures that no harm can come to the whales as there are no exposed moving parts under the water. Best quality engine silencers and an insulated engine room make Sea North II extremely quiet above and below water.
