Team Melanesian Luxury Yachts has landed in Tahiti!

We’re here this week for the Australia Tahiti Rendezvous, hosted by Superyacht Australia —always a highlight on the calendar.

This event perfectly captures what makes the Pacific so special: a relaxed, friendly vibe, a stunning tropical setting, and the chance to connect with captains and industry legends who’ve become good friends over the years.

Here’s to another great week in paradise—sharing stories, promoting our countries , forging partnerships, and celebrating all that makes our region shine.

Of the many highlights from our last week at UNOC in France - this is top three. Hard to capture how beautiful it was to hear live.

🎓 Congratulations, Latifa (aka Queenie)! 🎉

Yesterday, our very own Ms. Latifa Jonathan graduated from Law School at the University of Papua New Guinea — and we couldn’t be prouder!

From day one, Queenie has brought integrity, intelligence, and heart to our team. Watching her take this incredible step forward is both inspiring and deeply rewarding.

We are honoured to support her as she continues to grow in her career, and we can’t wait to see the impact she’ll make in the years ahead.

We’re sure we’ll hear all the stories when you return to HQ — and we’ll be ready with cake! 🎂

Well done, Queenie — this is just the beginning! 💫

Tunnung — everyone’s home away from home.
Where time slows down to island pace. Once you arrive, you’ll never want to leave.

🎵
White sand soft beneath my toes,
Clear water sparkles, it gently flows.
A little canoe drifts all alone,
In stillness, it hums its happy tone.

Tropical trees so green and tall,
Wild and free, the beauty calls.
A magical place, so pure, so true,
The Solomon Islands are waiting for you! 🌴💙

Thank you 📸 for the inspo

On a day spent assisting at a local aid post, we were blessed to witness the raw beauty of life entering the world—a reminder of the incredible resilience and strength found in these communities.

Moments like this remind us of the importance of being present, of lending a hand where it’s needed, and of how life continues to flourish in the most unexpected ways.

For most of us, accessing clean drinking water is as simple as walking a few steps and turning on a tap. Yet for 26% of the world’s population—about 2 billion people—clean water remains a luxury. It can mean the difference between life and death. Access to safe drinking water impacts life expectancy, wealth, and social standing. It can even reshape populations, forcing entire communities to relocate.

In my work, I’ve witnessed communities where people—no, children—walk an hour each way just to reach a clean water source. With changing weather patterns, this challenge is only growing.

Recently, I was introduced to an incredibly simple yet highly effective water filter by Gary Litz. I was reluctant to share this until I had personally tried and tested one of these filters myself.

Today, having seen the results, I’m thrilled to announce that Melanesian Luxury Yachts has ordered our first 200 filters.
These filters, purchased through Madfox Pawa, will be distributed during our next expedition to West New Britain, Papua New Guinea, where we plan to deliver them to rural hospitals, schools, and families.

I couldn’t be more excited. Each filter costs just $87 AUD (PGK175) and lasts over five years. One filter alone can create a tangible, lasting impact in communities.

I have nothing but admiration, respect, and gratitude for people like Gary Litz, who champion simple yet life-changing solutions for their communities. I’m so proud to know you and eager to support you.
