Aristocat

There are over 300 islands in Moreton Bay. Many have excellent beaches accessible only by boat. It offers a diversity of foreshore and offshore features, seascapes and landscapes, relatively safe boating and wide scope for recreational activities.

We sail where the wind takes us - stop for lunch at a secluded beach; go for a swim or just relax. The crew normally challenges the guests to a game of beach cricket. As soon as the batting team "appeals against the incoming tide" the game stops and we sail home.

This vessel is also available as a bare boat to experienced Sailors.
