    Things to know

    No shoes, glass beer bottles, red wine, chocolate, or spray sunscreen on board. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to complete paperwork. Transportation is not provided; paid harbor parking is available.

    Each party must designate one individual as the “charterer,” who will make the single payment and assume full responsibility for the vessel and all guests. Under our demise charter (“bareboat”) policy, the charterer is required to provide their own captain, crew, provisions, fuel, and insurance. The charterer may bring up to 12 additional guests, for a total of 13 passengers, and this total must include the captain and any crew hired or brought on board.

    For convenience, we recommend hiring a licensed captain and crew through Captain & Crew Aloha LLC, a separate company whose operators are pre-approved, experienced in Hawaii waters, and already included on our insurance policy. If hired, they will handle vessel operation, docking, provisions, fuel arrangements, charter and insurance paperwork, vessel orientation, and a full safety briefing. Their service includes one licensed captain and one crew member, which allows space for 11 additional guests including the charterer. The recommended rate for the captain and crew is $100 per hour, paid separately by law and not included in charter pricing. To book your captain and crew, please call (808) 807-4800.

    Cancellation policy

    No refunds within 7 days of the charter. Inclement weather or strong south swell may result in cancellation and a full refund or reschedule. Winds exceeding 27 knots or conditions preventing safe departure qualify. Rescheduling depends on availability. The pre-approved captain decides if conditions are unsafe.

    Hannah and Joey have clearly built something special here, with a perfect rating that speaks volumes. These captains consistently go above and beyond, even jumping in the water with guests to share the experience. Reviewers repeatedly describe them as welcoming, friendly, and professional while maintaining a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere that makes you feel right at home on the water. The yacht itself gets high marks for cleanliness and amenities. Guests appreciate the thoughtful touches like snacks, drinks, towels, blankets, and snorkeling equipment all included. Families especially love how great Hannah and Joey are with kids, making this a solid choice for multi-generational groups. The sunset cruises seem particularly popular, and multiple reviewers mention they've found their go-to charter service and plan to return. It's the kind of place where the hospitality genuinely stands out alongside the beautiful setting.

The boat was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed, making the whole experience effortless and enjoyable. Hanna and Joey went above and beyond, making us feel completely at home. Their hospitality was incredible, and they took care of every little detail to ensure we had the best time. Hanna even took some stunning pictures for us, capturing memories we'll cherish forever.
