Selene Yachts proudly celebrates the remarkable cruising journey of Cheryl and Rob Parker aboard their Selene 48 Objee (pronounced “Ohb-jee”). This capable long-range trawler has carried the couple on an unforgettable adventure through the pristine waters of Alaska, showcasing the exceptional seaworthiness, comfort, and reliability that define Selene Yachts.

Since taking ownership, Cheryl and Rob have logged more than 5,000 nautical miles, proving the Selene 48’s prowess as a true passage-maker. Their voyage north highlights the yacht’s design for extended bluewater and coastal cruising—blending luxurious living spaces with rugged ocean-crossing capability.

Activities during the Alaskan Expedition

The couple explored Tracy Arm off South Sawyer Glacier, where they witnessed the raw power and beauty of tidewater glaciers calving into the sea, and Ford’s Terror, with its dramatic scenery and serene anchorages that offer a profound connection to nature. They also enjoyed numerous wild anchorages, utilizing:

  • Zodiac excursions along towering ice faces
  • Kayaking in mirror-calm waters
  • Shore excursions that put the immense scale of the landscape into perspective

These experiences capture the essence of trawler cruising: not just travel, but immersion in remote, awe-inspiring environments.

Why the Selene 48 Excels for Such Adventures

The Selene 48 is a popular model in the Selene fleet, known for its robust full-displacement hull, efficient John Deere diesel power, generous fuel capacity (around 1,100 gallons), and spacious raised pilothouse layout. With a range exceeding 2,000 nautical miles at economical speeds, stabilization options, bow and stern thrusters on many builds, and high-quality craftsmanship throughout, it delivers confidence in challenging waters like those found in the Inside Passage and Gulf of Alaska.

Cheryl and Rob’s story reflects a lifetime of service, adventure, and a deep love for life on the water. Their journey aboard Objee embodies the Selene philosophy: building yachts that inspire owners to explore beyond the horizon with comfort and peace of mind.

At Selene Yachts, we are thrilled to see our owners creating lasting memories in extraordinary places. Congratulations to Cheryl and Rob on their Alaskan adventure—we look forward to following their continued voyages!
