    Matt and Bridgette proved to be very great hosts for this day trip off of Cook’s Beach. We thoroughly enjoyed our sail to the outer islands, in spite of the threatening weather. We stopped at one of the outer islands to do some snorkelling, and the crew provided us with some very healthy dining options included within their very diverse and tasty home-made grazing platters. A very nice day for our family.

  • Amazing experience!

    Hamish and Bridgette were on time, even early. They were also very friendly and more importantly, very knowledgeable with what they were doing. The chill vibe allowed us to get to know each other. They were also easy to talk to and gave clear instructions. They stopped/took time if there were beautiful sceneries (Cathedral Cove). Coffee, tea, juice, and cookies were available on board. Definitely an experience worth treasuring. Thank you!

    Don't let age or inexperience stop you from booking this trip. From the moment you are picked up in Flaxmill Bay you are looked after. I am in my early 60s. Had never been sailing before. No issues getting on and off board. A wonderful hot proper coffee, chances to take the helm, beautiful scenery to see, historical info was shared and we were offered a chance to swim at Cathedral Cove. Safety procedures were top notch. A very relaxing experience on super comfy bean bags...there's even a toilet on board. I would recommend to everyone. Thankyou Mat and Rebecca for an awesome morning.

    Really good experience with super friendly staffs in Matt and Rebecca. We travelled with a 5-year old and Matt was doing his best to make him feel comfortable during the time. There were blankets, hot tea and some light meal provided. The boat looks well maintained, clean and spacious. It is a well planned experience and a must try for people visiting the area.

    What a great experience! The crew was fantastic and let us steer the catamaran and learn about sailing. The views are stunning. They even had bean bag chairs on board so that we could all enjoy a total zen experience on the water. Highly recommend.

    Just relaxing in the bean bags in the netting as we sailed around the coastline was memorable. A great few hours spent on the water

    Awesome morning with Sam & Kat. Cathedral Cove is amazing, snorkeling was a bonus! Arrived back more relaxed than a 3hr massage. A definite highlight of our trip, would highly recommend.
