Acaia Motor Sailer

Originally built in 2008 by Southern Wind and refitted in 2023, the 100ft (30m) motor sailer Acaia offers the best of two worlds – graceful sailing when the breeze fills in and dependable cruising when it does not. With 4 staterooms arranged as 1 King, 1 Queen and 2 Twin, she sleeps 8 and takes up to 12 guests for day outings, supported by a crew of 4.

A Refreshed Classic

The 2023 refit updated Acaia’s interior spaces and onboard systems while preserving the character that makes motor sailers such a distinctive charter choice. Guests enjoy spacious deck areas designed for both the active and the contemplative. At 10 knots under power, she covers ground efficiently; under sail, the journey itself becomes the destination. Refreshed cabins offer modern comforts while the deck retains the classic rigging that gives motor sailers their timeless appeal.

Water Activities

With 10 water toys aboard, including two jet skis, two e-foils, three SUP boards, water skis, a wakeboard, towable inflatables, and surf and kite gear, and a Highfield CL420 Tender for shoreside adventures, Acaia keeps every guest engaged. The crew handles rigging, equipment, and logistics – whether that means setting the sails for a morning passage or laying out snorkeling gear at a reef stop.

Destinations

Acaia charters across Fiji, New Zealand, Australia and French Polynesia in the South Pacific and Australia, repositioning through the year to make the most of seasonal winds and weather patterns. Charter during Jan, Feb, Dec for the best sailing conditions and warmest waters. A motor sailer rewards guests who appreciate the slower, more connected pace of travel that only a vessel like Acaia can offer.
