About Bareboat Sailing Yacht Mahalo Ohana
Mahalo Ohana is a Jeanneau 41 purpose-built for bareboat charter in the Bahamas. This modern sailing yacht balances uncomplicated rigging with genuine comfort, making her ideal for families and couples seeking self-sufficient passage through tropical waters. Philippe Briand's interior design combines clean lines with bright finishes, delivering understated elegance throughout.
Three double cabins accommodate up to six guests across two heads. The open saloon flows seamlessly to the cockpit, where speakers, a bimini, and generous bathing platform anchor life aboard. Solar panels and a freezer support extended cruising, whilst the BBQ and audio system ensure social evenings remain convivial whether anchored or at dock.
Bareboat charter requires documented sailing experience and a current resume; alternatively, engage a skipper who will occupy a cabin and require meal provision. Watertoys including kayaks, paddleboards, and fishing equipment are available to hire separately.

The Charter Experience
The Exumas define Caribbean island-hopping. Over 300 islands scattered across crystalline turquoise waters offer a different anchorage each day—white sand beaches, protected coves, and snorkelling amongst unspoiled reefs. Nurse sharks, swimming pigs, and abundant tropical fish inhabit these waters. The Exuma Cays Land & Sea Park, a protected marine reserve since 1959, preserves the region's ecological integrity and provides world-class diving and wildlife encounters accessible directly from your yacht.
Suggested Itinerary
A typical week commences in Nassau, where you depart into the Exumas' archipelago. Days might include anchorages at Thunderball Grotto, the Exuma Cays Land & Sea Park, and remote island coves where snorkelling and wildlife viewing predominate. Evening passages between islands remain short, allowing leisurely days ashore and ample time to explore each location's distinct character.
