Bali Hai will be hosting the party of the summer | HULAPOOZA 65 Thursday, Aug 27th
Sun on your shoulders, breeze in your face, and a Mai Tai never far from reach, USA 40250 is where classic performance meets island soul. This 1985 C&C 39 Northeast, owned by Stephen Beck and sailing out of Bayview Yacht Club, brings Detroit grit with a Bali Ha’i state of mind—equal parts race-ready and dockside legend.
Where the thrill of the race meets island rhythm
From 1999 to 2024 — Numb Sailing has been what life is all about. It’s more than sailing or racing—it’s friendships, chaos, and chasing those elusive trophies. Whether we win or lose, one thing’s guaranteed: we’re having the time of our lives.
Born from the legacy of S/V Comfortably Numb and Mark Miller’s campaign, we now step into a new era— S/V Bali Ha’i.
Our new platform for Sailboat racing, revelry, and unforgettable moments begins Summer 2026.
WE ARE: BALI HA’I SAILING.
Salt on our skin, wind in our hair, Tiki gods watching like they just don’t care. Laughin’ so loud you can hear us for miles, Barefoot crew with those island smiles.

Tiki Bar
Step into the ultimate dockside escape—where fast sails collide with the laid-back, tropical rhythm of Bali Ha’i.
Our Tiki Bar is the pulse of the what ever port we are docked, pouring legendary island cocktails beneath glowing sunsets, both aboard Bali Ha’i and right on the dock.
The famous Bali Hai Mai Tai is a potent, sweet, and tangy tiki cocktail served at the Monkey Tiki Bar aboard the yacht Bali Ha'i.
It combines 1 oz light rum, 1 oz Myers's Original Dark Rum, 1/2 oz triple sec, 1/2 oz orgeat syrup, and sweet & sour mix to fill, served over packed shaved ice with a pineapple wedge and cherry.
