You can also go via the island of Chiloe. Short ferry ride from south of Puerto Montt to Ancud, ferries go all the time.
Leaving for Chaiten on the main land is more tricky. One ferry leaves from Castro, the other from the town in the south-west. Only one ferry per week per port. Friday and Sunday, but I can't remember which day is which port. Check Navimag.cl - they run the ferry service.
