Whether you’re looking for a brawl with a Coho, to catch an ocean-to-table dinner or some drinks & snacks at golden hour Dr. Claws got you covered! Captain Brad is very knowledgeable and you’ll be treated to some epic scenery.

I’ve been on Dr. Claw twice now and I couldn’t have asked for better experiences. I booked an outing on Dr. Claw while having friends in town and it was the highlight of their time in Vancouver. Truly a create your own adventure experience! Captain Brad is easy to communicate with and plan your trip. If you give him an idea of what you’re hoping to do he is able to come up with the perfect itinerary! Brad and his skipper were punctual and made a great pair. They’ll make sure everyone has the best time. Can’t wait for my next trip on Dr. Claw!

Thank you so much for such a wonderful fishing experience! The boat is equipped perfectly and the area you brought us to was beautiful. Thanks again, we’ll be back!

Chloe Ferguson

Boat Vancouver was such an amazing experience! The Claw crew brought us to the most beautiful areas to swim, the best places to catch some crabs and prawns, and best of all, knew how to have some good times ! We couldn’t have had a better day on these beautiful Vancouver waters, anywhere else !

Jerome Lewis

This was an amazing experience for almost 5 hours to have the amount of fun on a boat, in which the host was so kind and listen to our groups ideas of where we want to see on the Indian arm! As well he has bbq on the boat that we can make our own food and such. Great experience for sure and best value around in Van. The location pick up was great in North van and he really has great bait for the crabs ???? and we caught 6 or 8. I highly recommend these guys as your first choice for a boat cruise/fishing/ island hoping adventure!

Friendly, spectacular boat, well organized and beautiful place to charter! We had the best experience for a local adventure to waterfall down the inlet. Captain Claw very knowledgeable to knowing the great spots for crabbing and beautiful spots to swim/paddle board! Would highly recommend!

Had an awesome day on the water with dr.claw. We set up crab and prawn traps, went for a lovely swim and even spent a bit of time trolling for salmon. Highly recommend boat Vancouver for a fun day on the water!

Dr claw and captain Brad are so much fun! I’ve been out with them twice and each time had such a fun tailored experience. It’s been so cool to explore our coast line and fish, swim, bbq and hang with friends. Even if you’re not into fishing (me) you’re Guaranteed to have a super fun day on the water with good people.

Had a freaking blast cruising the west coast with Captain Brad of Boat Vancouver and the crew aboard Dr. Claw. If you're looking for an afternoon or evening of fun-filled fishing adventures. Definitely consider a private charter, the value was great, the entertainment was hilarious. Some nat geo sh!t happened out there -- we watched a seal snake our salmon! SO WILD! Enjoy the adventure.

Dr Claw was the highlight of my summer! My friends organized this and was so surprised by Dr Claw's energy, knowledge of BC's coast and professionalism. Will be going again and recommend to anyone wanting an amazing boating experience in Vancouver BC!

We spent an AMAZING day on Dr. Claw. Our two children loved helping throw the prawn and crab traps, as well as the beautiful waterfall.

I had a blast on Dr. Claw! Captain Brad was amazing, prompt, went over and above our expectations! Would recommend him again and have already booked for some winter fishing!! Thanks for taking such great care of our group!

A fantastic experience on the water for our entire family. We really enjoyed ourselves and will be back for more fishin, swimmin and tubin next summer. Both our daughters think that captain Brad is rad!

Christopher Birley

Captain Brad is a certified legend and will show you a good time. When the boat rips, the good times roll. We went up the Indian Arm for Canada day and checked out some waterfalls while we waited for our crab traps to do their thing. I went full Alex Honnold mode and climbed up the waterfall, perhaps a bit too high. I know he is very knowledgable and will take you fishing, among other things, but we just kept it chill. Great day, 5 stars, would recommend.

Teri Conrad

What a fabulous experience! Captain Brad was an absolutely perfect host customizing our half day experience with waterfalls, beautiful vistas, bbq and a brief, chilly swim/SUP board attempt! I can’t wait for another day out soon! I almost hesitate to share because we want him all to ourselves! (Thanks Brad! You’re the best!)

Nancy Mathisen

Thanks for the whale of a time!

Kolten Brooks

Dr. Claw is one of the most entertaining and rewarding charters I have ever been on. Captain Brad is a legend on and off of the waters. We spent a picturesque evening on glass water catching salmon and crab, learning about the local waters and wildlife while enjoying libations and stories. I can’t wait for my next booking

Brad is the best! Chill day on the water and he had a cooler filled with ice and everything! Would definitely do it again!

Andrew Campbell

Captain Brad and his boat Dr. Claw are oh-fish-ially my new favorite adventure to take around the Vancouver area!! His knowledge of the area and expertise behind a fishing pole made for my group and I's best day of the summer! 100% recommend and I will definitely be back!

Brad and his rig are awesome! Great communication about the logistics, fair price and lots of fun to be had on Dr. Claw. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a charter in Vancouver!

Keira Hindle

We had the best time with Captain Brad and Dr. Claw! We went for a sunset cruise and tried to reel in a few salmon, however the super sneaky & cute seal snagged them all off the line. Definitely recommend going out with Boat Vancouver, you will have a fantastic time

Saskia Vermeulen

I highly recommend Boat Vancouver! We’re repeat customers and have always had a great experience. Brad is professional and knowledgeable and there are no shortage of activities from fishing to paddle boarding. Although boating on Dr. Claw is obviously great in the summer with good weather, Brad still made sure our experience this fall was an epic one!

Gareth Cowan

Had a great time with Captain Brad, whether you're looking to hook into some fish, do some crabbing, or for a more relaxing cruise with family and friends, he's got you covered. Looking forward to booking my next trip!

Kyle Gould

We had the BEST time on the boat. 4 of us went out for a day of fishing and bbq. We will def be using their services again! They were so accommodating, funny as hell and super chill. Thanks so much we will def be back!

Amanda Dirk

I have gone out with Boat Vancouver for very different occasions and both were wonderful experiences; a bachelorette party with the girls where we decorated the boat and enjoyed cocktails with a sunset view, and a more casual evening of fishing with friends where Brad took us to stellar fishing and crabbing spots. Would really recommend for any occasion, Brad will personalize the Boat Vancouver experience for you.

Julie Melanson

Highly recommend Boat Vancouver to all! Had a wonderful time on the boat recently fishing and caught an incredible sunset. Captain Brad is the best - super professional and fun all at the same time!

Devon Almas

Brad took my friends and I out on his boat twice this summer! He’s very personable and makes for a relaxing day, or a good party! Will definitely be booking him again next summer.

Maiki Cyrwus

Had an amazing time out on the water with Dr. Claw! Some highlights were grilling the fresh prawns and crabs we caught earlier in the day, and swimming in the ocean at sunset. Dr. Claw is an awesome human and amazing guide! Can't wait to get back on the water for another tour.

Megan Pilat

This boat excursion was the best. Brad (capt. Claw) is the best. It’s all the best! The whole trip was very professional but lots of fun. Brad makes sure you know the safety protocol and you are off! It was nice to have a say in what we wanted to see/ do and tailor the trip to our preferences. I would highly recommend this adventure to all.

Alison Grubb

Our time with Captain Brad was amazing! We loved our time fishing and enjoying the beautiful scenery. Highly recommend!

Isabelle Zucca

Captain Brad really knows how to show his passengers a good time. He took us out to Indian Arm while we waited for our crabs to be captured. Even though we failed to capture the crabs, Captain Brad made up for it with awesome captain skills!! Really excited for my next Boat Vancouver experience, highly recommend !!

Helena King

My friends and I had the best time on Dr Claw. Brad was amazing! Our trip really exceeded our expectations and can’t wait to book another trip. We loved how flexible it was in terms of where we wanted to go, how much fishing etc we wanted to do, and of course the BBQ. Incredible views and a good laugh, suitable for whatever takes your fancy! 100% would recommend.
