S/V Honu Kai is a Manuel Reef, Virgin Islands (British) based 2010 Jeanneau 44i For Sale By Broker. Responses to inquiries may come from a broker who is representing the owner as a fiduciary. This owner requires financial settlement only. No trades.

Honu Kai has spent the past several years operating in the charter fleet with LongTermCharters.com in the BVI, primarily serving as a bareboat for experienced cruisers undertaking extended voyages. As a result, her interior reflects a history of regular care and remains in good cosmetic condition throughout.

In 2024, Honu Kai sustained stern damage during a tropical storm. She was subsequently acquired by a professional yacht contractor who completed a thorough and high-quality repair of the affected areas.

Prior to the storm, the yacht was actively chartered and well maintained. She’s now in a slip at Manuel Reef Marina.

A comprehensive pre-purchase survey is recommended to verify her current condition.
