As captain of your private sail boat, it is an honour to help facilitate your Hawaii ash scattering/ life celebration at sea.
Your ash scattering includes a private sailing charter
A reflective sail to Diamond Head establishes the mood for your ash scattering/ life celebration. How often are we surrounded by rainbows during this boat tour? Almost always. Talk about setting the mood!
Take as long as you need to talk about your loved one as you scatter their ashes and celebrate their life. Bring as many un-strung flowers/petals as you want. When all is done, an easy down-wind sail brings you back to the harbour.
When is the best time to sail?
Anytime is good…sunrise, sunset, morning, afternoon..you choose.
I hope your days here in Hawaii have lots of sunshine and brightness to them. Hawaii is such a healing place…immerse yourself in that richness while here, and take it with you when you leave.
Choose Sail Blue Hawaii for your Hawaii ash scattering/ life celebration.
May 21, 2025 was a beautiful day on the water to celebrate a life and scatter the ashes. It’s never easy, but when ocean conditions lie down flat or the wind ramps up , it is often a reflection of the character of the soul we are scattering. No kidding, this happens often.
May 21, 2025. I mention the date again because Hawaii whale season ends late March /early April. Sailing slowly back to the harbour in a reflective mood we were suddenly stirred by the sight of a mum and calf surfacing as they swam west. WOW!
You never know what your Private Sailing Charter will capture
Every day is different. In my many, many sea hours I am still captured and delighted by the many unusual happenings as I sail each Hawaii private charter. I had someone ask me the other day, “don’t you get bored doing the same thing every day”? I was speechless. Never, ever, NO. Every day is different and you really can’t beat sailing out to scatter ashes and meeting a mum and calf on the way home, in MAY. That is a first for me. Just exactly who was this person we had just said “aloha” to anyway ?

Dreams Come True in Blue Hawaii
Sail Blue Hawaii offers private sailing charters for all ages. There is no limit to children’s ages, nor elderly, as long as the latter is mobile and agile.
I can’t say enough good things about the people who find my website and sign up to sail with me. It’s a delight for me to spend Kaikiwi time with you. Whether you have never sailed before, or even perhaps never been on a boat, OR you are a seasoned sailor, I taper the sail to your comfort and/ or (:-)) your excitement. Because we are gifted with tradewinds, I can “wind it up” or “wind it down”, customised just for you and your expectations. For a more adventurous sail do choose a day-sail when we sail full sail. Sunset cruising is all about kicking back and relaxing, perhaps enjoying a cocktail. I sail with a lighter sail plan than during the day unless otherwise requested. Because our sunsets don’t tend to linger, we are back at the dock very soon after sunset. If you decide while we are out there that you would like extend your cruise to see city lights, by one half hour or more, can do. This is common, especially on spectacular evenings. No need to decide until then.

“Years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bow lines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” -Mark Twain

Gone from my Sight
“I am standing upon the seashore. A ship spreads her white sails to the morning breeze and starts for the blue ocean.
She is an object of beauty and strength. I stand and watch her until at length she hangs like a speck of white cloud just where the sea and sky come to mingle with each other.
Then, someone at my side says: “There, she is gone!”
“Gone where?” Gone from my sight. That is all. She is just as large in mast and hull and spar as she was when she left my side and she is just as able to bear her load of living freight to her destined port. Her diminished size is in me, not in her.
And just at the moment when someone says, “There, she is gone!” there are other eyes watching her approach and other voices ready to take up the glad shout: “Here she comes!” And that is dying.“
– Henry Van Dyke, a 19th Century clergyman, educator, poet, and religious writer
