From the Logbook
Our take: Plus 10
Plus 10 is a 2025 Samana 59 and one of my favorite designs in this size range—sleek, modern, and incredibly well thought out. The fully covered flybridge is the best in its class, and the forward lounge accessible from the salon is a game-changer for social flow on board. With five equal queen en-suites, it's ideal for up to 5x couples or a family who wants room to spread out without compromise. The water toy lineup is stacked too, with highlights like an e-foil and Subnados for guests who want to kick the adventure up a notch.

David and Emily met and married on the beautiful island of Kauai. There, they were flourishing, David working as a finish carpenter on luxury estates and Emily cooking as a private chef. Every afternoon when they would get off work and see the ti leaves swaying, they’d race down to Hanalei Bay to take their Nacra 20 out for a zip thru the water. Soon after saying, “I do”, they bought a 44’ Kelly Peterson, a classic ocean going vessel. They quickly closed down shop, moved off of Hawaii, and began prepping the boat to head south to Mexico. They took off from San Diego in December 2018 and began their adventure of a lifetime. Sailing down the primitive coasts of Baja, where all you see is brown and blue to Zihuatanejo Mexico, where they passed the March 2019 shut down on a secluded island with 5 other boats. They’ve surfed the coasts, fished big game, and even seen sea monsters! Their biggest challenge was crossing by themselves to Hawaii, the longest ocean passage in the world. It was 21 days of riding a roller coaster and they were hooked! They returned by passing under the Golden Gate Bridge on a clear, cloudless morning with no other boats around. Now, they are based full time in Mexico, cruising in the winter months and developing their property in the summer. Expect to see some flavor and spice on your plate!
David grew up in a boat yard in Oceanside, CA. He moved to Hawaii when it was time for a fresh start. Hawaii is known to either accept you or throw you out, and it welcomed him with open arms. He raced on Olson 30s in beer car races and across the treacherous Kauai channel to Oahu. He worked on stunning homes with vistas of the ocean. His sense of adventure and charging attitude will keep your trip moving forward! He is always trolling lines off the back and loves to reel in dinner.
Emily moved to Hawaii from Jackson, WY, where she was running an all organic and vegan bakery. It was like a light bulb going off when she learned of private chefing..as if “AH! This is what I’m supposed to do!” After a tasting trial at the head concierge’s house, her career took off. Her inspiration comes from sourcing the most beautiful ingredients she can find. She loves going to farmers markets and meeting other people passionate about creating high vibrancy foods.
We look forward to sharing our stories and learning about yours during our charter together. Feel free to kick back and relax or get involved and learn more about sailing and fishing from us. No matter your style, we will teach you our motto…”We out here living our best life!”

David & Emily,
Thank you both for the most amazing, memorable trip that has provided us experiences that will live in our memory(ies) a lifetime! Having the opportunity to bond like we’ve been able to on this trip is really because of you both! Watching Wake & Bella live their best lives over the last week has been a dream. Wake fishing until the wee hours, treasure hunt, learn to eFoil, & become our little captain – all you!!
Bella’s confidence has bloomed during this trip & enabled us to see our little girl in a whole new light. Watching her get up on that wakeboard made my heart explode. I think she may even have imprints from goggles that never fade. We sincerely can’t thank you enough!! This was everything our family needed! We’re leaving with new bonds with each other that I hope to maintain & strengthen as we go. We’ve been on lots of trips, but I can sincerely say that this one hit a little differently 💖 We love you both for everything you’ve done.
Love,
The Garault Family
