Wasabi is a 26-foot boat with comfortable seating and a huge cooler. Captain Cary can take you out for a half or full day of fishing around Majuro or, if the wind’s not too strong, over to beautiful nearby Arno Atoll.

The SV Kwai is one of two sailing vessels that belong to the Marshall Islands Shipping Corporation. The boat was renamed the SV Tarmelu in 2024, but many people still call it the Kwai … and, unusually, both names appear on the bow.
