Just so you're aware - the Alaska Marine Highway ferry system does get you "close" but not TO Anchorage. From Haines, it's through open ocean, not the protected inland passage that is sheltered from heavy weather and high seas.
Most of the routes from Haines up toward the Kenai Peninsula use smaller vessels, and you can get a little green around the gills
if you're not used to big wave action. It all depends on the weather. Check the routes at:
