Monohull Private Sailing Charter on S/V Nova

With a perfect track record across well over a hundred reviews, this charter operation consistently delivers exceptional private sailing experiences around Maui. The crew—particularly Captain Anna, JJ, Nessa, Tim, and Marcella—earn universal praise for being knowledgeable, personable, and genuinely attentive to their guests. They regularly spot whales, dolphins, and sea turtles during tours, and their expertise about marine life adds real depth to every outing. The boats themselves (a 42-foot Catalina and 47-foot Leopard catamaran) are described as immaculate, spacious, and comfortable. What stands out is how the crew adapts to different occasions. Guests have celebrated proposals, birthdays, and even memorial services, with the team handling each event thoughtfully and professionally. They're also skilled photographers who capture beautiful moments without being asked. Whether you're snorkeling, whale watching, or simply enjoying a sunset sail, the crew creates a relaxed atmosphere while prioritizing safety and comfort. Communication from booking through the trip itself is reportedly excellent, with weather updates and helpful planning support. This is clearly a top-tier choice for anyone wanting a memorable, personalized day on the water.
