See General Booking Information button below

Wet Weather
What happens in the event of rain?
The Seawind Catamaran provides reasonable protection from the elements because of it's covered coach house area.
We cannot offer a 'Blue Sky Guarantee'. If boating conditions are unsafe, as determined by the principal of Sydney Harbour Escapes, we will re-schedule your booking to another date.

Preparations and Arrival
What do you advise we bring along for our charter?
As conditions can vary on the water, it is suggested that you bring along a hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, swimmers, and seasonal jumper or jacket. Please wear white-soled shoes or non-marking boating shoes. Strictly no black soled shoes or stiletto-heeled shoes, as this will damage the decking.

Where can our party be picked up and dropped off?
There are many harbour wharf locations that you can be picked up and dropped off from. A surcharge will apply with an additional fee if the pick up and/ or drop off is at Manly, Balmoral and wharf locations west of Gladesville Bridge.  Please contact us and we can advise the most suitable place to suit most of your guests.

Can one of our guests be picked up late and dropped off early from another wharf?
Multiple pick up and drop off points are not recommended as this will shorten your charter time significantly. We suggest that guests wishing to join the charter late or leave early should arrange alternative transportation via water taxi at their own cost. Please ask one of the Sydney Harbour Escapes team members for a Water Taxi contact.
