Green Other: 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.

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.
