d/b/a Humpback Hauling
Humpback Hauling was started in 1998. Bob designed the Humpback after over 30 years experience owning and operating vessels in Washington and Alaska. We operate out of Roche Harbor and mostly serve the Northwest outer islands.

We've done a wide variety of jobs including transporting wedding parties, film crews, research projects and fire fighters. For hauling construction trucks and materials, please note our new capacities (see below).

Bob and Lori are both USCG Licensed Captains and the Humpback is USCG Certified for passengers, freight and towing.

We are able to access most beaches and boat ramps down to a 1.0 foot low tide.
