Adrian | 2002 Amel Super Maramu Kaiman 

In March 2024, Adrian found himself at a crossroads. After years of chasing professional ambitions and trading one deadline for the next, he decided it was time to answer a different kind of call—the call of the ocean. That’s when he purchased Kaimin from our Tahiti Sales Consultant Gilles Haudrechy.  Kaiman is a 2002 Amel Super Maramu 2000 – a vessel unlike any Adriane had encountered before.

Kaimin is a rare, uniquely crafted sailing boat designed for long-range cruising. Sleek and agile, yet sturdy enough to brave the open ocean, the Super Maramu class was born from a tradition of Polynesian design fused with modern engineering. Her hull moved through the water with a whisper, and her lines were elegant, almost poetic. But what truly set Kaimin apart was her soul. She was a diver’s boat, through and through—equipped with a built-in dive compressor, spacious storage for tanks and gear, and a rear swim platform that doubled as the perfect entry point into the deep.

She was, in every way, the ideal boat for Adrian. A vessel built for exploration, solitude, and the silent wonder of the underwater world. But life, as always, had its own tides. Despite purchasing Kaimin in March, Adrian’s professional commitments kept him tied to the desk rather than the helm. Time and again, plans were made to fly to Tahiti—where Kaimin was lying—and time and again they were postponed. Weeks turned into months. The Pacific waited, patient and unmoved.

It wasn’t until February 2025—nearly a year later—that Adrian finally stepped onto the sun-drenched docks of Tahiti and saw Kaimin with his own eyes. She was even more beautiful than he remembered. Standing on her deck for the first time, barefoot, the scent of salt in the air and the hum of the island behind him, Adrian felt a deep, anchoring peace. This was no longer a dream. It was the beginning of the journey.

His plan was ambitious, even audacious to some. Sail west across the Pacific, diving its legendary atolls and reefs—from the Tuamotus to Micronesia. Then onward through Indonesia, down into the Indian Ocean. Dive the Maldives. The Seychelles. Madagascar. And finally, as the world spun behind him, make the long arc around Africa and return to England—home, but changed.

Kaimin wasn’t just a boat. She was a path. A promise. A floating sanctuary that would carry him across the world and beneath its waves. As the sun dipped below the horizon on his first evening aboard, Adrian poured a quiet toast on the aft deck—a ritual to the sea gods, and maybe a little to himself. The journey was long overdue.
But at last, it had begun…

Parallel

Oscar C. | Nautitech 46′ Open | Parallel

In March 2024, under the swaying palms of Tahiti and the watchful gaze of the Pacific sun, Oscar made a decision that would chart a new course in his life. He purchased Parallel, a Nautitech 46′ Open catamaran—a sleek, modern vessel designed not just for sailing, but for living. With its distinctive open layout, dual helm stations, and a massive suite of solar panels feeding powerful lithium batteries, Parallel wasn’t just a boat—it was freedom.

For Oscar, Parallel was the ideal floating home. Already a seasoned sailor and entrepreneur, he had been running a successful charter business in Mexico, where turquoise waters and reliable trade winds had become his backyard. But he’d always dreamed of something more—a vessel that could double as an off-grid mobile office, a self-sufficient home on the sea, and maybe even a new business model.

The Nautitech 46′ Open was everything he had been looking for. It offered the perfect balance between performance and comfort: spacious saloon merging into the cockpit with panoramic views, dual hulls housing private cabins, and the open bridge deck that invited the breeze and conversations under the stars. But what truly set Parallel apart was her solar array. With an impressive range of panels lining her roof, she drank in sunlight and turned it into silent, clean power. The lithium battery bank meant Oscar could run his work-from-anywhere setup, keep the fridge stocked, and still have power for night sails without ever hearing the hum of a generator.

As Parallel danced through the South Pacific swell, Oscar charted a six-month voyage to Australia. It would be a test—of the boat, of the lifestyle, and of his vision. During this journey, he planned to fine-tune Parallel as both a personal retreat and a potential new addition to his charter fleet. The idea of offering premium eco-friendly sailing charters across multiple continents was beginning to take shape in his mind.

Each anchorage along the way—Fiji, Vanuatu, New Caledonia—will become a new page in Parallell’s logbook and a new step in Oscar’s evaluation. He will work from the nav station by day, swam with manta rays by afternoon, and fell asleep to the lullaby of the ocean each night. He will meet fellow cruisers, test Parallelin open-sea passages, and host a few lucky guests who will offer rave reviews of their time aboard.

By the time Australia will come into view on the horizon, Oscar will no longer just testing a boat. He will imagine a new chapter in his life: one where work, travel, and sustainable living merged on the high seas. Whether Parallel would become the flagship of a new South Pacific operation, or remain his personal escape, one thing was clear—his horizons had expanded, and he is ready for whatever came next.
