Our Story
In 2000, Argosy launched the Royal Argosy, an elegant state–of–the–art dining ship. The ship was designed and built on Whidbey Island, Washington at Nichols Brothers Boatyard and was modeled after the early 20th century Puget Sound Mosquito Fleet. Today you will enjoy a dining experience like no other! Your meal will be prepared to order, on board, while you cruise. The Royal Argosy’s two full kitchens are staffed by a team of Chefs led by Executive Chef Ron Arbour. Chef Arbour has over 30 years of culinary expertise at prominent Seattle and East Coast restaurants, and he has been with us from the start. Scenery from Elliott Bay will serve as your backdrop during our voyage. We hope to see many of the signature sights of Seattle such as snow–capped mountain ranges, intriguing architecture and city lights. From the largest container vessels and cruise ships, to the smallest sailboat skipping across our wake, the skyline of Seattle will send you off and welcome you upon your return.
