For those planning on watching the midnight fireworks show, answering the question as to the best place to view the fireworks is easy. Nothing beats the uninterrupted views and front row seat that comes with hiring a boat and going on new years eve Sydney Harbour cruise. In fact, after spending the last few new years competing with a million other people for a glimpse of the bridge, and then waiting 4 hours so I can pay $50 for a bottle of water, I'm rather tempted to give the whole thing a miss... or buy a ticket on another New Years Eve Harbour Cruise*

Humpback whales travel tens of thousands of kilometres from May until November, swimming between their winter breeding ground to the area they feed in summer – which just so happens to be the east coast of Australia.

That’s right folks, we Australian’s really are the lucky country, because we get to witness one of the longest whale migrations in the world – all just off the coast of Sydney!

I’m feeling good about next year. Don’t ask me what it is, I couldn’t put my finger on it if I tried, but I just got a feeling that 2016 is going to be amazing. You with me? Well let’s make sure we start it with a bang – by sending off 2015 in style!

Unless you’re looking at a row boat and the Queen Mary, to the untrained eye all these incredible floating vessels and aerodynamic watercraft look the same. So how on earth can one tell the difference between say a Schooner and a Dinghie? Or a SuperYacht and a Sailing ship?

Seaduced is a boat that we have worked with for a while now but thanks to the incredibly busy Sydney boat hire season we have not had much time to upload new boats. Boat hire on Seaduced is great and caters to the entry level in the luxury market.

Seaduced boat hire...

Australia Day boat hire keeps us busy every year and this year is one of the busiest we have had. Most of the Sydney Boat Hire options have already been booked but we do still have at least 3 boats available.

At the higher end of the scale we have Seaduced, which is a beautiful Riviera 4700. It is $5,000 for up to 20 people.

Boat hire in Sydney has seen a wet start to the season, but this doesn’t mean that any charter boats have had to cancel cruises. In fact, as far as we know, only one cruise has been cancelled due to all of this weather, mainly due to an issue with the wind.

Can you believe how fast the year has gone? New Years Eve is only 5 weeks away which means that New Years Eve cruises kick off to take us into 2015. Most private New Years Eve cruises are booked however we do get last minute options become available so make sure you contact us if you can’t find what you are looking for on our New Years Eve cruises page.

Olympic Storm was added to our list of boat hire options today. It is a boat we have dealt with for a while but have never found time to upload all the information. Olympic Storm now has new owners and we are getting more enquiries so it was important that we make space for her on the new Any Boat boat hire web site.
