Goldwing is our flagship at Eagle Wing Whale Watching Tours in Victoria BC. She is undoubtedly the smoothest, most comfortable, eco-tour whale watching boat on the westcoast. |
Goldwing, a super charged limousine, cruises at 32 knots or 37 miles per hour. She is incredibly smooth, spacious, and fully equipped with all the bells and whistles including an on board washroom |
A conservative approach to Race Rocks ecological reserve is mandatory as there can be up to four different species of seal and sea lion and nesting marine birds there. |

Twin Disc Arneson drives and two very large 5 blade props give this boat a very distinct Rooster Tail spray pattern off the stern. This drive propulsion system is more quiet than rain falling on the water when Goldwing is cruising at speed. |
Sitting motionless in the water of Jordan River Goldwing sure has a unique stylized look and disposition in the water. She has been designed with complete stability in mind. As she sits in the water the underwater ballasts fill with water and eliminates |
