This 1929 Boeing Aircraft of Canada is 48' with a beam of 11' 6".  In 2011 she won most improved vessel at the Victoria Classic Boat Show.  She is loaded with teak and bronze inside and out, as well as breathtaking Alaska yellow cedar decks to maintain her original appeal. For cruising, she has been fitted with modern conveniences and the ability to stay out on the hook for days on end.  She contains berthing for 6 people, 2 heads, and 1 shower.

Hulakai has never been changed from her original name, meaning "Sea Dancer" in Hawaiian. In the years 1929 to 1931, among the many boats produced by Boeing Aircraft of Canada at the previously named Hoffar-Beeching Yard were three 48' stock model triple-cabin bridgedeck cruisers with cedar hulls, yellow cedar decking and all teak cabins. Originally fitted with a Hall Scott gas engine and has since been re-powered with a 1950's 84HP 6LW Gardner diesel.
