So beautiful it'll give you emotional dehydration.

Windsurfing hall-of-famer Robbie Naish to offload redundant 73-acre estate on Maui’s North Shore for $18 million: “Half a mile of coastline and not a neighbour in sight!”

"The crown jewel of the North Shore."

Twenty-three time world windsurfing champion Robbie Naish don’t need no intros.

A king of his sport. Kite surf and SUP pioneer. Won his first world title when he was thirteen. Morphed his windsurf fame into a line of wildly successful eponymous surf equipment.

So it don’t surprise that Robbie, who is fifty-seven and a granddaddy now, has put a few shekels away and lives, or soon, lived, on seventy-three acres of oceanfront land on Maui’s North Shore.

“I wanted to buy a piece of Hawaii,” Naish said of the estate he bought in 2005. “Before it’s all gone.”

Now, the whole joint is for sale and eighteen-mill will get you the keys.

From the Agent’s spiel,

Maui oceanfront 73 acre estate with maximum privacy, security, and open space. This is the 1st time ever this estate has been offered for sale. The parcel encompasses Kealii Point between Uaoa Bay and Pilale Bay with nearly a 1/2 mile of coastline and no neighbors in sight. Entering the main gate you are greeted by a 8′ tiki statue carved out of a single monkey pod log. The elegant Palm tree lined driveway leads to the approx. 6,000 sq. ft., 5 bedroom, 4.5 bathroom home plus a gym. Pocket doors disappear into the walls in the great room opening to expansive ocean and pastoral views. With multiple living spaces, including a guest wing, it’s easy to spread out to get some alone time or gather on the main level to enjoy the open great room, chef’s kitchen, bar, and dining room. Just outside the great room is a large covered lanai that flows towards a 10ft deep pool with a waterfall and spa. The large home office is a perfect place to remain productive while never having to endure a commute. Power is grid tied and there is a state-of-the-art PV solar system to keep energy costs low along with a private well. Additionally, there’s a 2,000 sqft shop with lots of room for ATV’s, jet skis, boards and more. The property is a short twenty five minute drive from Kahului airport or helicopter to your front door in a matter of minutes. This is the crown jewel of the North Shore.

Windsurfing gives me a nobbie rash

Jin Key

👏👏👏

John Wayne

“When it comes to the feeling of driving combined with the power, Porsche is in a class of its own,” gushes Naish.

This sounds like Chas.

Nick Carroll

I once watched Robbie Naish jump clean over Namotu Island on a kiteboard

Gino

I said that myself when I went to Maui.
Was shit

longtom

must be a divorce sale, surely.

god only made so much Hawaiian real estate.

Gino

Or he is in some serious shit

longtom

exactly, 57 is still young enough to enjoy acreage like that.

Gino

I’m 55 Tom.
I rent in Melbourne. I would burst into tears if somebody told me I didn’t have to pay rent,that I owned a house.

John Wayne

Maybe he is sick of doing the lawns and just wants a low maintenance apartment or townhouse. Those lawns would waste a good portion of your weekend…..I would probably just run some sheep and deal with the pooh.

longtom

he don’t go anywhere near that ride-on.

Gil Gunderson

Some next level land clearing right there!

Geronimo Mastrobator

I’m sure haoles Zuckerberg or Larry Ellison will purchase.

Mapski

Monsanto is always looking for acreage.

Gadoot

In Hawaii they lease not buy.

Gino

How the fuck do you not just die there and pass it on to your kids then?
Is anyone really gonna do any better?

Ed

it’s a strange place, just looking at the pictures it seems haunted or something

Otto

Happy New Year y’all.

OttoDon’tSurf

Happy New Year

Otto

New beginnings for some.
Don’t let the same old story set you back Ck T.

OttoDon’tSurf

My name is Otto

Barrelled

Your name is Cunty KunTard

Otto

Negatron already gave you up C kT.

OttoDon’tSurf

Nope it’s Otto

NEGATRON

There was money in windsurfing??

Sellme fitzgobbins

I thought the exact same thing

astro

Yep !
Even I had two boards, 5 sails and all the shit that goes along with it.
All up I spose it was around 6-7k worth. Sold it all when I got fukked off with the space needed and realised I was happier being a scumbag surfer.

Return of the Samsung Board

Windsurfing/ Paddleboarding/ Laird activities are all taken up by a certain demographic of dudes keen for latest gadgets. See foiling. Mountain biking is also a magnet for these cunts and they have no qualms in getting e bikes when they are perfectly able

Fucks

Gino

I ride MTBs with 2 guys half my age from work.
Both have E-bikes and have no shame about it.

Waterproof Polo

E-bikes (for the physically able) are a disgrace. I prefer to proudly peddle slowly uphill while the motorised rip around. I must be a Luddite.

Gino

True.I think they’re good for the oldies.
I’m there for a workout,not a joy ride.

Waterproof Polo

Word. But still. I feel like I’m the odd one out there on the trails these days.

Gino

Yeah..I don’t get it.
Was up in Canberra last year and would run on that Century trail. Was spewing I didn’t bring a bike.

Follow the Sun 🌞

Please tell me how you really feel! 😂🤣😂🤣

Beef & Beer

Yeah big money
As an 18 yr old in 1984 I was getting $25 a board to sand them, would only take half an hour each and I’d do between 40 and 50 a week
Making over a grand a week for a half weeks work in those days was crazy for a young kid and allowed me to surf heaps, travel a lot and get up to all sorts of ratbaggery haha
Laaaaughing !
And I was at the bottom of the windsurfing cash ladder…

(Sanding surfboards took longer and ya got paid less, the windwanking kooks paid for my travel, toys and mull etc for years)

Gino

Safe to say you enjoy watching videos of kite boarders getting slammed into European apartments.

alana_blanchards_heaving_bosom

it was very popular in the 80s and 90s, not sure why it isn’t anymore

astro

They got kite surfing now ….
I still see the odd stalwart on a windsurfer blasting around here and there when I get to town on an onshore.
Ratio would be 1:10 (kites)

Gino

For sure
Old housemate friend from Germany would go to Egypt to kitesurf.
Never knew how beautiful it was there.
Said the Russians killed it.

Lemon Next to the Pie

There’s a bit of a scene on the Gold Coast. Currumbin for the waves, the Broadwater for the flats. Not a lot of crossover with surfers because their favourite wind is our onshore.

Gino

Haha..he would have made some on SUPs as well.
Guy I played hockey with from Quebec was the first person to import them into Canada.
Was a just a college project at first.

John Wayne

sounds like Quiksilver America……

Gino

Im having a few on a rainy Saturday JW, comment just went over my head.
He was #2 in motocross in Canada and came to Hawaii to learn English.
He owned Le Bonaparte restaurant in the old section of Quebec City which I see is now closed.
His wife was a Dr, his waitstaff etc were his hockey team.

Myself and guys from the team visited him and skied Mt St Anne.
We were treated like royalty. He knew everybody.
After dinner at his restaurant, we went to the upscale pool hall next door and met up with Owen Nolan. We were kings at the disco that night.
Ahhh…to be young again.

John Wayne

Hope you enjoying those beers…….That is how the ex boss Bob McKnight talks about how Quiksilver started in America when Jeff Hakman secured the rights for America from Al Green in Torquay – it was going to be a one year project they did for one year before he headed back to grad school at UCLA. He never went back.

Gino

Ahh..I see. I should have remembered that…I read Salts and Suits.
Unfortunately I suffer from CRS.

Waterproof Polo

Is too late to start importing Foils? What’s the next big thing…sup-foils!

Gino

I’d say something along the lines of a gas that knocks out people in the line up.

Waterproof Polo

Where do I invest?!?

Gino

Contact the Riddler

Craven Morehead

J ?

Gino

Actually…off topic. Ive noticed how on FB marketplace how guys were hustling buying and selling weights to people setting up home gyms during lockdown. I now see many have branched out into importing their own weights and selling on FB marketplace. Must be some money in it. At the peak, old weights were flying out the door for $8kilo. I think they typically go for around $3-4 a kilo new.

Waterproof Polo

The shipping would be exxy on weights I’d have to imagine..

Gino

Lots are shuttling them around or it’s pick up at the guys house.
I

Follow the Sun 🌞

Yeah.. I have never heard of this guy but then again, I’m learning so much about different people and new words when I read all the comments on all these BG comment sections!

Derek Hynd's Missing Fins

Or helicopter to your front door…jesus, I’m just happy if I can make rent and have a few bucks left.to buy my kid some legos.

Lemon Next to the Pie

Ahhh, who could be fucked mowing all that grass? By the time you finished you would have to start again.

Derek Hynd's Missing Fins

If you’re that rich you pay peons to trim each blade with a gold plated scissors.

Ricky Spanish

So many choices. Do I buy a few beachfront houses at Pipe, or this estate in Maui? Fuck it, I’ll just buy them all and figure it out later.

samwaters

This is the perfect property for a windsurfer, not a rideable wave in sight and all rocky coastline.
