Description

Moresby Explorers was started by two loggers, Doug Gould and Billy Blount in 1988 when Billy suggested that the tourism business would be a great way to meet girls.

They then bought a 5 metre Zodaic inflatable boat and started touring. After the first season they realized that open boats and camping in the rain wasn't a great combination and they, being loggers, built a 40' by 70' log float and salvaged a cabin from the logging camp at Lyell Island. They anchored it in De la Beche Inlet until 1997 when Parks Canada and the "Haida" politics forced it to be moved north of the Park boundary to Crescent Inlet where it is today.

Doug continued to log while Bill did most of the touring. Logging paid for the equipment and basically built the business. Without this steady income Moresby Explorers would not have been viable.
