It all begins with an idea...

There is something about being out on the water….

We love nature and the new perspectives that we get when we are out on the beautiful Columbia River. It is not unusual to spot great blue herons, pelicans, bald eagles, and even adorable river otters and nutrias - all from the comfort of the boat!

We had the idea to start Columbia Charters as a way to share the enjoyment of boating with others.

My name is Ken Wright and I am a USCG credentialed boat captain. My wife Kimberly is my First Mate and all-around experienced boater.

We look forward to welcoming you aboard!
