Meet The Owners

Shari & Amos Zolna

Amos and I, originally from New York City, made San Diego our home in 1995. Our love for this city’s year-round fantastic climate and unique coastal lifestyle fueled our desire to create something special. Drawing on our experience in vacation rentals, we created San Diego Bay Vacation in 2007, later evolving into Zolna Yachts.

In 2020, we streamlined our focus to the Nerissa, our beloved 49-passenger motor yacht. As the lead stew aboard the Nerissa, I occasionally join our A Team, ensuring every charter is an unforgettable experience. Amos, the captain of maintenance, oversees the yacht’s impeccable upkeep.

Our goal is to share our passion for yachting and we hope to see you soon!
