Our Story

What Makes Blu Notte
Uniquely Ours

Blu Notte was founded on a simple conviction: that the Puget Sound — one of the most spectacular stretches of water in North America — deserves to be experienced on its own terms. Not from a crowded ferry or a tour boat, but from the deck of a private yacht, at your own pace, surrounded by people you care about.

As a family-owned and operated business, we bring a personal touch to every charter that larger operations simply cannot. We know these waters intimately — the hidden anchorages, the best vantage points for watching the sun set behind the Olympic Mountains, the calm passages where orcas and seals come close enough to take your breath away.

Our 54-foot Meridian motor yacht is the finest available in the region — equipped with spacious salons, elegant staterooms, and a fully appointed galley. Whether you're planning a private event, an island-hopping adventure, or simply a day on the water, we tailor every detail around you.

What We Stand For

Three Pillars of Every
Blu Notte Charter

Uncompromising Safety

Every charter is captained by a USCG-licensed professional with deep knowledge of Puget Sound waters. Your safety is not a feature — it is the foundation everything else is built on.

Genuine Hospitality

From the moment you board to the moment you step ashore, our crew is focused entirely on you. We take care of every detail — meals, itineraries, pace — so you can be fully present.

True Customization

No two charters are the same. Your itinerary, your menu, your pace. We build every experience around what matters to you — whether that's adventure, celebration, relaxation, or all three.

Cannot say enough about our amazing charter with Blu Notte. From beginning to end it was 5 stars. The crew was top notch and professional. The boat was absolutely stunning — detail given to everything. The food and beverages were prepared special for all our guests, even the gluten and dairy free ones.

★★★★★

If you're looking for a great way to cruise the lower waters of Puget Sound, this is it. The vessel interior and workmanship is about as good as it can get. A very experienced crew and the captain's knowledge of the waters is excellent. We are looking to book another cruise very soon.
