Overview

​*** We are now closed for the winter. We’ll be back next May. Check the schedule for next summer availability. ***

Join us on a restored 1958 Century Coronado named Radiance, a classic American wooden boat. This is like riding in a classic car on the water. With its big powerful engine, this will take you back to the grand days on the water on the 50's. It's a truly unique experience.
​
Private charters with a maximum of 6 people. Perfect for a couples night-out, special occasion birthday, anniversary cruise or an intimate wedding.

Radiance cruises are best appreciated during the early morning and evening alpenglow hours. Daytime lake conditions are less predictable, yet cruises are available and always a good time.

Our staff at Alpenglow Boat Company are delighted to create special event cruises with clients, such as full moon stargazing and sunrise tours. Just ask!
