UFO Parasail is a company that started 20 years ago on Maui to bring new and exciting ocean experiences to the island’s many visitors. The company is owned and operated by Greg and Rich VanderLaan, both graduates of the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy and both holding BS degrees in Nautical Engineering and U.S. Coast Guard licenses. Today UFO Parasail operates 3 boats on Maui and also has operations on the Big Island, and on New Zealand’s Bay of Islands.

They manufacture and sell these boats, contributing more than 500 winch boats that are in operation in 35 countries around the world.
