A Sturdy Capable Fiberglass Hull, “Reliance” is perfect for exploring the Pacific Northwest and beyond.   Reliance was Re-Launched in 2008 after a complete transformational refit. This re-fit was a joint effort which began at the Buckie Shipyard in Scotland and finished with the final fit out done by David Walkey at the Qweek Quay Boatyard in Cornwall, UK.

Originally built in 1975 as a research vessel for the University of London's Marine Laboratory.   Her original build was completed by Halmatic Ltd in Scotland.  "Reliance" is 1 of 15 hulls, most of which were built for fisheries or research.

Reliance is now a modern, exceptionally equipped, high end expedition vessel.
