Brush Up Your Bare Boat Sailing Skills on the Gold Coast

If you are looking to bare boat hire a sailing vessel and would like to refresh your skills or learn from scratch, we have the perfect vessel. Our yacht is a 35 ft Dufour sailing sloop. She is well maintained and a pleasure to sail. " Eau De Vie " is in 2C survey for both smooth water (10 passengers) and out side on the ocean (8 passengers) so we can go where ever you wish. When you hire the vessel it is your and yours only for the duration of your charter. This time of year there are many whales migrating north to the northern warmer waters for breeding and birthing.

If you are wishing to brush up on your skills prior to a bare boat hire then this boat is it. She was once in survey for bare boat hire in NSW so you will be in control of the real thing with a skipper to help with the decisions from boat handling to sail trim. Our vessel is only available with a skipper as the Broadwater is shallow in many locations and local knowledge is a must with a 2 m draft. This does not stop you from taking control of the vessel for the voyage. Overnight charters  are available on request.
