On Encore in August we did the Bering Sea Crab Fisherman’s tour and I agree it was excellent. We hope to be on the Joy in 2025 on a 10 night Alaska sailing where the port stops are much much longer. When in 2025? We are likely going to do the 6/27 to 7/7 sailing on the Joy in 25. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are looking at the September 19-29 sailing. Our 50th anniversary is in October of 25, so it will an early anniversary celebration. I know the weather would be better in June but we are hoping for a chance to see the Northern Lights.
