Verification status: public information reviewed 11 September 2026. Availability, price, survey limits and policies can change. Confirm in writing with the operator.

Who this operator may suit

The published offer is most relevant to travellers matching these formats: skippered; bareboat matching; corporate. Shortlist it when the base at Sydney Harbour and Pittwater wharves and the operating area—Sydney Harbour / Pittwater—fit the desired itinerary. Do not compare headline capacity without checking whether it is a day-passenger limit, an offshore limit or an overnight berth count.

Qualifications and handover

Crew included on standard charters; bareboat requires qualification/handover. For any self-skippered booking, expect the operator to assess recent comparable experience, anchoring, engines, navigation and emergency competence. A licence alone does not compel an operator to release a vessel. See qualifications and charter resumes.

Inclusions and exclusions

Skipper/crew, wharf fees, fuel, safety gear, cleaning, GST and insurance stated included. Ask for a line-item quote covering skipper and crew, fuel, gas, marina/wharf fees, cleaning, linen, tender/outboard, water toys, catering, beverages, reef or park charges, credit-card surcharge and security bond.

Deposits, cancellation and weather

Boat-specific deposit/cancellation; confirm quote. Obtain the current contract for the chosen vessel and date. Separate cancellation by the customer, cancellation by the operator, weather rerouting, mechanical substitution and force-majeure clauses.

Operator/context signal: Official site states 4.9/5 from 300+ reviews. Ratings are dated snapshots and can move. Google figures are included only where the operator embeds the live result or a searchable review index republishes a clearly matched Google Business profile; they are labelled accordingly. Read recent low and mid-rating reviews as well as high ratings, and check whether comments concern the same vessel and current management.
