Other Green Initiatives
Watermaker produces 6 gallons per hour Mimbaw endeavors to operate with a reduced-carbon footprint and charters in a fashion that is supportive and respectful of the local environment. A large solar arran and the good use of windscoops negate the need for a diesel powered generator. The array runs all electrical systems on board including the dredges/freezers, water and ice namers. Elbow grease and green cleaning products are used where possible. Constant effort is made to source organic, fresh food and that with the least amount of air-miles. The intent and desire of the Mimbaw crew is to continuously find ways to improve Mimbaw�s green credentials.

Brief

Keenan & Ashley share a love of water and sea life, after traveling to the South Pacific’s Kingdom of Tonga to swim with humpback whales, Keenan & Ashley met sailors-traveling the world and fell in love-with sailing. It has since become a way of life. After returning to the US, they bought a 24ft monohull and worked through ASA training, followed by RYA Skipper Training and eventually USCG Captain’s training. They then purchased Mimbaw and completed a complete refit of the boat during Covid and over the course of more than a year of work! They’re now excited to invite you aboard!!

Keenan
From a young age Keenan longed for adventure and sought it out. By the time he was 11 he was open water scuba-certified which became a life-long passion and career while in Koh Phi Phi, Thailand Keenan was certified as a Dive Master & since has had the opportunity to become a Dive Instructor and work in some of the Dive Mecca’s of the world. Keenan is excited to invite diver’s aboard whether looking to get certified, just try it out, or try out a new spot.

Ashley
Growing up in an Italian American home food has always been an important part of Ashley's life, learning to cook at a young age. This love of cooking has followed her around the world first learning to cook in Tuscany at 18 and jumping at opportunities to take additional cooking courses wherever she goes. Ashley spent her time at home hosting dinner parties and could not have found a better fit than as a catamaran chef and she can’t wait to host you aboard!

How would you qualify skipper:
Very Knowledgable, skilled, relaxed, accommodating, helpful and humorous. Can't imagine a better fit.

How would you qualify rest of the crew:
Great work accommodating our mixed family of carnivores and vegetarians. Friendly and social without forcing herself into activities.

How would you qualify the yacht (comfort, features, general maintenance, etc):
comfortable and roomy as expected; had some maintenance issues that the captained addressed as well as able without disturbing our itinerary. Not many boats could maintain a five star if they are used I imagine. It was fine for us; some creativity required by the captain.


How would you qualify the itinerary:
I don't know what else we could have asked for. Saw the highlights of the BVI above and below water, caught some fish by making a special trip outside direct path to destination; understood our preferences well given the confines of a crowded sailing grounds.

How would you qualify the sports and leisure activities/equipment on board:
paddle boards and scuba gear kept us occupied per our request, as did fishing gear, kayak, and snorkel gear. small but very important item; deck of cards on board was used every evening and we had forgotten to bring cards. each boat should have a couple decks, due to ease of having cards blown overboard, though we managed to avoid that, barely.

How would you qualify the food and drinks:
Responded very well to our preference sheet!

How would you qualify the entire experience of your trip:
A+ I can't think of any disappointments or negative surprises.
