Tasman Ocean 35

Spacious accommodation and light to sail, the Tasman Ocean 35 is the perfect catamaran for cruising the Whitsundays for up to 6 people.

** Based on a 7 night charter**

Description

Tasman ocean 35 - 'serendipity'.

A beautiful 3 cabin catamaran with 2 Queen beds and 1 double plus 2 large ensuites, ensures there is plenty of room for everyone on board. The roomy saloon features a large dining table, huge opening forward hatches providing excellent ventilation, great for catching a pleasant sea breeze while sharing a meal and the memories of the day in the large wrap around leather settee.

The central galley in the saloon facing out towards the aft deck means the 'chef' is always part of the action. The interior is welcoming and comfortable with personal touches bringing a relaxed and homely feel to the catamaran.

The covered cockpit and BBQ area is a great spot for an afternoon beverage and just taking in the sublime surroundings of the beautiful Whitsundays.

Easy sailing, with a self tacking jib and fully battened main, she presents an impressive figure under full sail. The Twin Yanmar 35 hp diesel engines make for very economical operating when the wind disappears.

Relax with some music in the background and chill out on the aft deck as the sun sets on another day in the glorious Whitsundays.

Testimonial

A group of friends and partners, not all known to each other, had the best time ever celebrating and bonding over their friends 50th on board our very own Bareboat. The briefings by Deano were outstanding and prepared, the mostly first timers on how to negotiate two catamarans for 10 days. The seas were unseasonably changeable and facilitated great excitement in attempts to sail the seas of the Whitsundays. The coves provided rich coral for snorkeling, we sighted Whales, Dolphins and Stingrays. Our late night partying on spacious luxury boats did not offend fellow boaters. Thank you Cumberland Charter Yachts for unforgettable fun on Mango Tango and Double Play.

About Hobart

Why is Hobart a good sailing destination?

Hobart, nestled on the estuary of the Derwent River, stands as a maritime jewel in the crown of Tasmania. It’s a destination where history mingles with nature, creating a rich tapestry of sailing experiences that few places in the world can match. Yachting.Rent brings you closer to understanding why Hobart is more than just a good sailing destination; it’s an exceptional one.

The geographical position of Hobart offers the first hint. As the southernmost Australian capital, it presents sailors with a gateway to the expansive Southern Ocean, known for its challenging yet rewarding sailing conditions. The convergence of the mighty Derwent River with this ocean paints a vast maritime playground that ranges from tranquil bays to adventurous open waters.

Hobart’s rich maritime history accentuates its charm. This city grew on the back of seafarers, explorers, and maritime traders. Sailing in these waters, one isn’t just cutting through the waves but also through layers of history. Old wharves, historic buildings, and stories of ancient mariners come alive, turning a simple sailing trip into a journey back in time.

Natural beauty abounds, with Mount Wellington towering over the city, casting its majestic shadow on the water, creating a breathtaking backdrop for your sailing adventures. With Yachting.Rent, you get to witness spectacular sunrises and sunsets, painting the mountain and waters in hues of gold and purple, an experience that remains etched in the memory for a lifetime.

Biodiversity is another lure. The waters around Hobart are teeming with marine life. Playful dolphins, seals basking on rocky outcrops, and if you’re lucky, a majestic whale making its way through the depths. Each voyage can turn into an impromptu marine expedition.

Cultural festivities add another dimension to Hobart’s appeal. Events like the Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race, one of the world’s most prestigious ocean races, bring together a community of sailors and enthusiasts, creating an electric atmosphere of camaraderie and competition.

Yet, with all its accolades, what makes Hobart stand out is its pristine, almost untouched feel. While the world rushes on, in Hobart, time seems to slow down, allowing sailors to truly immerse in the joy of the journey, the dance of the waves, and the whisper of the winds.

In essence, Yachting.Rent believes that Hobart isn’t just about sailing; it’s about experiencing the soul of the sea, history, nature, and culture all at once. It invites you to not just be a sailor, but a storyteller, an explorer, and a lover of the deep blue. It’s not just a destination; it’s a sentiment, a call of the wild, waiting to be answered.

What Choose

Sailing boat or Catamaran, what to sail in Hobart

Sailing in the mesmerizing waters of Hobart, Tasmania offers a unique experience, be it on the crest of a wave or in the embrace of a serene bay. However, the choice between a sailing boat and a catamaran can often be perplexing for enthusiasts. At Yachting.Rent, we aim to help you make an informed decision tailored to your needs, ensuring that your maritime journey in Hobart is nothing short of perfect.

Sailing Boat: Traditional and timeless, sailing boats have been the preferred choice of many for generations. Their deep hulls allow them to maneuver smoothly through varying sea conditions, making them ideal for those looking to experience the true essence of sailing. In the challenging yet exhilarating waters of the Southern Ocean, a sailing boat offers stability and an intimate connection with the water. It’s perfect for those who yearn for an authentic sailing adventure, where each gust of wind and ripple in the water can be felt. Moreover, for journeys that involve anchoring in deeper waters or exploration of hidden maritime secrets around Hobart, a sailing boat stands as a classic choice.

Catamaran: On the other hand, catamarans, with their twin hulls, offer unparalleled stability. This design makes them less likely to tilt, ensuring a more comfortable voyage, especially for those new to sailing or those who prefer a laid-back experience. The wide deck provides ample space, making it ideal for family outings, parties, or simply basking under the Tasmanian sun. Additionally, catamarans can easily navigate shallower waters, allowing closer access to some of Hobart’s pristine beaches and secluded coves. If you envision your trip as a blend of comfort, leisure, and panoramic views, a catamaran might be your vessel of choice.

Regardless of your pick, what remains constant is the captivating allure of Hobart’s waters. Whether it’s the historic charm of the city’s maritime past, the majesty of Mount Wellington, or the sheer thrill of sailing in the Southern Ocean, the experience is bound to be unforgettable.

Yachting.Rent is here to facilitate your dream sailing experience in Hobart. With an extensive fleet of both sailing boats and catamarans, coupled with our expertise, we ensure that your maritime adventure resonates with your expectations and beyond. Dive into the heart of Hobart’s waters, and let the sails, be it of a classic boat or a modern catamaran, guide you through a world of wonder.

Being a sea-locked Australian state, Tasmania is surrounded by nearby inlets and islands that offer spectacular natural scenery, sheltered harbors, and breathing taking cruising grounds. You will find a plethora of sandy beaches, excellent dive spots, historic sites, and quaint villages found all around the coastline. Therefore, yacht charter in Tasmania is one of the best ways you can explore the island.

What are yacht charter prices in Tasmania?

The yachting season in Tasmania begins in December and ends in April. This is summertime on the island, and the weather is warm, with long days and mild temperatures.

Tasmania yacht charter for a day

With unspoiled coastline and rugged scenery, it can be not easy to pack all of Tasmania's top tourist destinations in one day. Still, if you only have a full day yacht charter in your itinerary, then a trip to Bruny Island from the capital of Hobart is one of the best yacht charters for a day adventure that you can have. Sail the D'Entrecasteaux Channel around the north Bruny Island and drop anchor in Kettering, a small fishing town famous for yacht charters and sailboats. Explore the area, or do some finishing where you can find flatheads, cod while salmons, mackerels, and occasional squid. Have your private chef grill your catch on deck, have a scrumptious alfresco lunch, then cruise along the unique bays and inlets along the island, before making your back to Hobart just in time for sunset.

Tasmania yacht charter overnight

There are plenty of safe overnight anchorages in Tasmania, and an overnight yacht charter is a perfect way to explore several destinations. From Hobart, explore your way up north by heading to Port Arthur, a small town on a well-protected bay. Port Arthur was a former penal colony in the 18th century and a World Heritage property. Explore this historic town, before making your way to Tasman Island, which is an exciting fishing spot. Drop anchor here for the night, before making your way to Maria Island in the morning. Maria Island is a National Park with remarkable geographic features. Explore inshore and get to witness abundant wildlife and a rich indigenous and European history. Head back to Hobart just in time for sunset.

Tasmania yacht charter for a week

For an unforgettable Tasmanian adventure, seven days of cruising the coast and nearby islands are the best way to experience it. A cruise to the southeastern coast of Tasmania offers historical sites, national parks, and plenty of opportunities for adventure and exploration. Here is a sample itinerary for a one-week liveaboard:

Day 1: Bruny Island

Head to Barnes Bay in Bruny Island, where you will drop anchor and stay for your first night. The north end of the island offers safe and sheltered anchorage. Explore the stunning cliff top views, abundant wildlife, beautiful coast, and enjoy a glass of Pinot and cheese on the beach before making your back on the yacht for the night.

Day 2: Huon River

Head to the safe, sheltered harbor of Cygnet Bay, a small town on the east side of the River. Known as the island's fruit-growing center, you can stock up on supplies, shop for crafts and souvenirs, and explore the art galleries and studios across town. Visit the award-winning winery at Gardners Bay, and cruise along the Huon River for picturesque views of the valley.

Day 3: Dover

Considered to be the southernmost town of importance, Dover is a historic fishing town that sits on the beautiful Port Esperance Bay. On a clear day, head to Kent Beach, where you can see three islands on the horizon, namely Faith, Hope, and Charity. Explore inland and visit Hastings Caves, the Thermal Springs, and the quaint villages.

Day 4: Recherche Bay

A quiet, idyllic bay with historical importance, this protected site offers exquisite natural scenery. Dubbed as the southernmost tip of Tasmania, explore the wilderness walks at Cockle Creek, and walk to the cliffs overlooking the Southern Ocean.

Day 5: Great Taylors Bay

This Bay is home to the 2nd oldest lighthouse in Australia, the Cape Bruny Lighthouse. You can explore the lighthouse on tour, then enjoy a picnic and walk along Jetty Beach or Adventure Bay, or if you fancy surfing, hit the waves at Cloudy Bay.

Day 6 and Day 7: Port Arthur

Make your way up north and visit the ruins of the penal colony of Port Arthur. Explore this coastal town where you will stay for the night, before making your way back to Hobart the next day. Cruise along the north and make your back to Hobart on day seven.

Wedding yacht charter in Tasmania

Suppose you're looking for something a little different than the usual church-ballroom/garden wedding. In that case, a wedding yacht charter in Tasmania is the perfect option. Tasmania is considered to be an off the beaten track destination, and what better way to hold your special day than in Tasmania's waterfront harbor? Exchange vows in a church in Hobart, then have your reception onboard, with uninterrupted water views. Cruise along the waterfront as you dance and party, and finish the day with an unforgettable sunset cruise.

Luxury yacht holiday in Tasmania

Whether you're heading north or south, there's plenty to see and do in Tasmania's coast and nearby islands. A luxury yacht, complete with excellent facilities such as a spa, gym, cinema, and plenty of water sports equipment, creates the ideal way to explore this beautiful rugged island.

How to Charter a Boat

If you want to sail off into the sunset, at least temporarily, you need to understand how to get aboard first.

By Lauren Sloss

This time of year, it’s an inevitable thought: Life would be that much better out on the water. Specifically, on a boat.

Even if you have neither a boat nor boating experience, it’s never been easier to make your nautical dreams come true — whether you want a day trip on your local lake or a fully staffed multiday voyage in a far-flung locale. Here are the initial questions that will help you plan an adventure on the water.

Whom are you traveling with?

Thinking about the size and dynamic of your group is an important first step, even if you are simply going on a day trip. Will children be on board? How old? What about elderly parents?

Dan Lockyer, the chief commercial officer of Dream Yacht Worldwide , strongly encourages travelers to determine group size — and, ideally, get people committed — before booking.

“The location that you want to go to, the time of year that you want to go, the type of boat that you want will entirely depend on the makeup of the group that you’re sailing with,” Mr. Lockyer said.

Do you want to captain, or do you want a captain?

Different charter companies specialize in certain locations, types of boats, itineraries and services. Some companies offer the opportunity for a “bareboat” charter, in which you rent the boat and take on the navigation and provisioning yourself, while others exclusively offer fully staffed options, including a captain and a cook.

If you want to captain the boat yourself, almost all outfits require some kind of proof of sailing or boating experience, often in line with local regulations.

Edward King, 45, an executive at a streaming company based in San Francisco, is experienced in sailing the city’s waterways. But on vacation, he said he would prefer to let a captain and crew take the lead.

Mr. King said he appreciates a captain who is familiar with both the local waters — “they’ll know how to avoid sailing into a certain sandbar,” he said, — as well as the local attractions.

In contrast, Matt Blake, 38, a software engineer based in Oakland, Calif., was eager to grow his sailing experience during a recent trip to La Paz, Mexico, with his fiancée. He hired a captain but made clear that the captain was there to help and teach.

Where do you want to go?

“Do you want something that’s more culturally oriented? Nature oriented? An adventure trip?” asked Mary Curry, the voyage product director of Adventure Life , which offers small group tours and private trips on land and on water around the world.

That answer can determine your destination. Popular cruising grounds include the Caribbean, Croatia, Alaska and French Polynesia, but the sky — or the sea — is really the limit. For help narrowing your focus, travel advisers often have relationships with charter companies or outfits around the world, and sailing publications offer recommendations.

Kyla Malkani, who has had experience with charters working as a destination wedding planner, recommends consulting the concierge of waterfront hotels, particularly for short-term or day rentals.

“A lot of times they will have either their own fleet or they will have some sort of connection at a dock,” said Ms. Malkani, 37, who is based in Washington, D.C., and is currently working as a content creator and freelance event planner.

What kind of boat?

Where you want to travel and for how long will likely determine the kinds of boats that are available to you. Crucial at this point, too, is an understanding of the boat’s layout and amenities.

“You definitely want to choose the right kind of boat,” said Ms. Malkani. “If you want more adventure, a sailboat is nice. If you’re looking for a luxury party environment, a yacht is best. And if you’re looking for something smooth, for older people or with kids, a catamaran is great.”

David Barclay is a luxury travel adviser who has also chartered boats for his own vacations.

“You want to match what the travelers want to what the boat offers,” he said.

Perhaps a group of friends might not mind a catamaran with functional but not luxurious marine bathrooms, but a multigenerational group might prefer more high-touch amenities.

When should I book?

Often, charter trips are once-in-a-lifetime experiences that require a great deal of advanced planning.

“You may have a specific place you want to go, or a specific time of year you want to travel,” said Mr. Barclay. “And some places just aren’t good at certain times of year.”

Naturally, you don’t want to be at sea in the Caribbean during hurricane season, or in the Mediterranean during winter storms. But you also might want to avoid peak cruising seasons, too.

The first three weeks of August are quite popular, said Mr. Lockyer. “If you have some flexibility and can travel in early July, you’ll get the same sort of great weather, a greater selection of boats and the anchorages won’t be as crowded.”

How much does it cost?

Charter costs are incredibly variable, dependent on all of the factors coming into play: your boat type and size, your destination, your group size, the amount of crew you’d like and the amenities on board. That said, costs could range anywhere from $2,000 for a day on a sailboat to hundreds of thousands of dollars for a multiday mega-yacht charter. Have a budget in mind when beginning your research process.

What if I didn’t plan far in advance?

While advanced planning is encouraged, and often necessary for bigger boat trips, it’s possible to book a boat last-minute.

Boatsetter , an Airbnb-like platform for boats, is a good resource for last-minute bookings, especially for day trips, and even has an Instant Book option for down-to-the-wire bookings.

“If it’s for a special event, or around major holidays, you may want to book a month or two in advance. But for general bookings, you can find options within a week or two,” said Kim Koditek, Boatsetter’s head of brand strategy and communications, of the company’s overnight offerings, which appear on their platform under the luxury yacht charters category .

Ms. Malkani has used Boatsetter for some of her charters, most of which have been booked with a specific goal in mind.

“I’m a sunset chaser,” she said. “My husband and I just really love being on the water, and we always try to squeeze in some sort of boat day activity when we’re traveling.”
