Family Christmas Adventure
Leave the devices at home and take your family for a day of family fun onboard a sailing boat.
For the week leading up to Christmas, Southern Cross Yachting is giving your family an opportunity to enjoy time together again after a busy 2022! Our skipper will take you off into Moreton Bay for the day where you can work together to set sails, crank winches, pull ropes, dangle your legs over the side (only if you wish) and even steer the vessel.
Bring your own lunch and alcohol welcome.
9am-4pm (approx)
Price starting from $1000 inc GST (depending on group size)
Yacht Charters and Sailing Adventures
Southern Cross offers the largest selection of skippered charter yachts on Moreton Bay. All our yachts are in QLD Transport survey and are comfortably and comprehensively equipped with everything you could require to make your holiday or corporate event special, including sun awnings, refrigeration and dinghies with outboard’s. All you need to bring is bedding and supplies (or we can arrange for these to be on board when you arrive).
Our area of operation is the partially smooth water limits of Moreton Bay covering over 200 square miles of protected waters and beautiful islands stretching from Tangalooma to the Gold Coast. Charters depart and return from our base at Manly Boat Harbour. The harbour is ideally located, boasting a large selection of restaurants, yacht clubs, a pub and shops all within easy walking distance in Manly Village and many beautiful anchorages less than 2 hours sailing time away. Manly is located only 25 minutes’ drive from the Brisbane CBD and 20 minutes from the domestic and international airports.
Skippered Charters
Just relax and come for a Sail…
For those who want to unwind, sit back and relax, we’ll do the sailing for you! Southern Cross Yachting can arrange a day out or holiday afloat to suit any budget. Be it a fully catered holiday on one of our luxury charter yachts or a fun day ‘racing around the cans’ we can arrange a sailing adventure that can be as strenuous or relaxing as you want it to be. Our fully qualified, friendly skippers know the Moreton Bay area better than most and will make your time afloat with us as enjoyable as possible.
Corporate and team building days
For corporate entertaining or as an incentive to your staff and customers, yachting is second to none. Southern Cross Yachting specialises in both organising corporate regattas and entertainment and conducting management training and team building courses. Whether your company is large or small we can design a cost-effective program to benefit your business.
Yachting, by its very nature creates the ideal environment to develop skills in management. It is the ultimate in team activities, demanding leadership, determination, commitment and a spirit of co-operation not available in other forms of adventure-based training. Yachting can be used not just as an activity to get your team working together but as an effective assessment for staff recruitment and promotion.
To successfully lead a yacht safely into port participants have passed tests rarely faced in management!
The training on board the yachts can be complemented with shore-based activities leading up to the event, and debriefing after. These programs are an ideal addition to sales conferences and seminars and can set the theme for major sales promotions or product launches.
Southern Cross Yachting can arrange these activities for groups of any size from a half day to 3 full day and nights. We can arrange everything from catering to hotel rooms and flights and the costs involved are much less than you might think!
