Treat yourself this Boxing Day with a boat hire experience! Get front-row views of the Rolex Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race as it begins.
While the official yacht race is reserved for professional sailors, Prestige Harbour Cruises private boat hire offers opportunities for spectators to experience the excitement of the race from the water. Whether in Sydney or other scenic locations, a boat hire is the perfect way to extend the holiday celebrations after Christmas.
Here’s what our Boxing Day boat hires include, depending on your vessel choice and location:
• Wide range of options: to suit all budgets and preferences. No matter which vessel you choose, you’re in for an unforgettable celebration.
• Skippered vessels: all boat hires come with an experienced skipper, with options for additional crew, waiting staff, and DJs.
• Scenic waterfront views: sail past iconic landmarks like the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge, or explore the Brisbane River and Gold Coast’s stunning scenery.
• Sydney prime race viewing spot: Enjoy strategic positioning in Sydney Harbour for unbeatable views of the race start as yachts set sail.
• Convenient wharf option: flexible pick-up and drop-off locations to suit your needs, with planning assistance from our specialists.
• Dining and entertainment: choose from BYO food or catered options, including BBQ, buffet, cocktail, or fine dining menus. Larger boats feature licensed bars, dance floors, and the option to hire a DJ. Most boats also have sound systems with Bluetooth for playing your own playlist.
• Water activities: add fun during your boat hire, with swimming, lily pads, floating islands, or standup paddleboards (options vary by boat).
