Hawaii Ash Scattering

Hawaii has a strong spiritual energy both on and off the ocean so it is no surprise that a farewell at sea is a healing and soothing way to help say goodbye and help you to have strength as you begin this change.

Call for your custom ash scattering at sea. Let us know about your loved one and how you want to celebrate their life.

When should we sail?

A gentle sunrise cruise, a day-sail, an awesome sunset cruise. All are options for your private Hawaii ash scattering. Remember your loved one as your captain sails your private sail boat upon Oahu’s stunning azure waters. Take your time, there is no rush.

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

5 BEST private HAWAII sailing charter ideas

Sign up for a brilliant tradewind full-sail private sailing charter. You’re on your own yacht with just you and your’s in your bubble. How more perfect can it be?
A private sailing charter sails past beautiful coastline in the cobalt blue blue waters of our Pacific. Wildlife such as green sea turtles, “honu”, dolphins, “nai’a”, humpback whales, “kohola” (in winter season only), and flying fish, “malolo” are some of the critters we may see as we sail. Beautiful views of Oahu, Diamond Head and, on clear days, far in the distance, Molokai and Lanai can sometimes be seen. This is not “destination” sailing. “Destination” is sailing. Last week as we sailed, we saw an endangered monk seal. This week a monk seal has given birth and she and her pup are hanging out at Kaimana Beach!

3. As we sail, especially in winter months, there is a huge chance we will see rainbows which thrill as they follow us as we sail up the coast.

4. If conditions are light, we’ll sail outside the shelter of Diamond Head where wind and waves are bigger, perhaps spraying you with delight. It is a rare day we get outside the shipping lanes!

5. I was asked the other day: “don’t you ever get bored sailing every day, doing the same thing every day?”. I was speechless. Every day the ocean is different, the weather is different, and YOU, the client, are different. Such variety! Such entertainment for me! Welcome to my OFFICE!!

So, come on sailor and non-sailor alike: Let’s throw off the dock lines and explore my office by signing up for your very own Honolulu Hawaii private sailing charter. It doesn’t get any better than this!

Sailing Yacht Rental Hawaii

Our current tradewind flow made for a beyond awesome day-sail yesterday for a couple’s sailing yacht rental while in Hawaii. Typically, for a private day-sail charter, clients choose 2-, 3- or 5- hour sails. Because yesterdays’ tradewinds were in the range of 15 knots we were able to sail way beyond the Diamond Head wind line. Fabulous. We found a false orca whale swimming around..that is a seldom sight.

What time of day is best for a private sail in 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, morning, afternoon, SUNSET✨. It is all good. You can email Sail Blue Hawaii NOW to sign up for a sunrise cruise, a day-sail, or a magical sunset cruise.

Where are we sailing to?

While on your private sailing yacht rental, we sail from Oahu’s south (protected) shore, not far from Waikiki, past beautiful coastline in the cobalt blue blue waters of our Pacific.
