Don’t Dream your Life, Live your Dream

So, again, when is the best time to sail your very own Hawaii Private Sailboat charter? EVERY TIME of day, all day long; LOL. I obviously am biased. After your time of day has been chosen, some people prefer the beginning of their vacation to relax into it by hanging back and just listening to the wind and enjoying their on-board company; others choose a day-sail according to what they feel might be the biggest wind day because they want adrenaline; others sail their last evening to relax into their final sunset. There are a myriad of choices for a myriad of personalities. It truly is all good and can be customised. So, here is what else I have heard from clients:

  • This group sailed the first or second day of their vacation; after the sail it was stated: “anything after this is going to be boring!” (oh no! They did of course find plenty to excite them through their week. HOWEVER, we do all know hot exclamation in the moment !)
  • This group sailed the first day of their vacation: “What a terrific way to begin our vacation! We cannot wait for tomorrow”!
  • “Sailing with you has been the highlight of our vacation”. From groups who have been on island a few days through to their very last day. Extremely sad to be leaving they ask: “Can we come back tomorrow PLEASE”. Cute. Do come back, yes, or next year!! (I have had a group who had so much fun they did come back “tomorrow”; another “next week”.)
  • “What an incredible way to finish our vacation ..the best activity, the best day of them all. THE HIGHLIGHT. ” Final-day vacationers.

Waikiki Sailing at its BEST!

Private boat tours in Waikiki are available with Sail Blue Hawaii. Weekends and holidays fill quickly so plan ahead and book today. Your experienced captain will ensure your safety and enjoyment. The cost of a private boat tour in Waikiki is affordable and highly desired. Your private yacht is spacious, featuring covered and open air seating as well as an onboard restroom.

Dreams come true in BLUE Hawaii

Because this is custom sailing, we can sail any time of day you want and whatever length of time you wish. Our islands are most consistently graced with trade winds so any time is a good time to go sailing…✨SUNRISE cruise, tradewind day-sail, SUNSET cruise✨.  It is all good. A client this week was concerned if we left at 0800 for a 3-hour sail we wouldn’t have enough wind. So much sailing, anywhere in the world, relies on an afternoon sea breeze. The fact is, we rely on tradewinds and not sea/land breezes. This makes Hawaii sailing unique and desirable, ANY TIME OF DAY. His concern was also the mid-day heat. “Kaikiwi” has lots of shade, so, time of day does not affect heat/ sun exposure.

Don’t dream your life, live your dream

Private Waikiki boat tours with Sail Blue Hawaii are for both tourists and locals looking to rent a private boat. Tradewind sailing, sunset cruising, coastline sightseeing and Friday night fireworks are among the most popular tours in Waikiki. Birthday and life memorials are also very popular. We accommodate a wide range of special events aboard. The Horizon is no limit.

So, give Sail Blue Hawaii a call for your own private boat tour in Waikiki.

Learn to sail in Hawaii

The Louis Vuitton Cup is at this moment being sailed in Barcelona. Whether you’re an avid Cup follower and know a bit or a lot about sailing, or just interested in sailing lessons to learn the ropes, Sail Blue Hawaii can give you a lesson at your level. By the way, the LVC leads up to the America’s Cup, the most exciting event in yacht racing. Well worth watching at any stage of sailing know-how.

Talking about “learning the ropes”

Choose Sail Blue Hawaii for a genuine sailing lesson aboard your own private yacht. Talking about “learning the ropes,” the first thing you learn in sailing is that they are “lines”, not ropes. A rookie shows who s/he is because their ease (or lack of) with the nautical language will give them away in a heartbeat. And there is nothing wrong with being a rookie…we all start at the beginning. Boating, and especially sailing, does indeed have its own language and it is learned over time by just being around sailors and being onboard. Sit back and listen and you can learn a lot through osmosis. OR, participate, ask questions, and learn with hands-on, and you will soon be talking this language too. What fun!

sailing lessons in Honolulu

You can understand from the way these docklines above are tied what kind of boater each is. You can even maybe sum up how they handle their boat and, perhaps, how “bristol” (shipshape) their boat is. Two different styles, indeed! I know whose boat I want to sail on.

Come on over to Sail Blue Hawaii….

…. for some Oahu sailing. If you don’t care for a sailing lesson, GREAT!..just sit back, relax, indulge yourself in a private sailing charter and the gift of “just being out there” and I bet you go home with some of that nautical language in your head, whether you want it there or not. 😉

Hawaii’s best private sunset charter

The sunset cruise, Hawaii’s best private sunset charter, was almost over. After a long, beautiful afternoon sail, we sailed gently into sunset hour. It’s that time when you go from the tranquility of sailing to turning the engine on and heading back in the channel. I always feel the disappointment in my charterers as I turn the engine on…the highlight of their Hawaii vacation is almost over.

We all thought the highlight would be the sunset

The couple, who were delighting in the beautiful moments of sunset, were sitting at the bow when I looked astern to check no one was behind me before I turned back to the channel and ohhhh…a large school of dolphins was swimming towards us. Sunset was astonishing but more astonishing were these dolphins who deliberately came to swim alongside Kaikiwi. So, I kept Kaikiwi heading towards sunset as the dolphins swam with us. As the sunset became more orange in its final moments, the Hawaiian spinner dolphins were doing what they do best…jumping and spinning and swimming alongside and around us, to the delight of my charterers. Dinner reservations were forgotten, the dolphins taking precedence. In my 30 years of being a charter boat captain, this was a highlight even for me. Check out why:
