good reasons to charter on the Gold Coast, instead
of the Whitsunday’s
The
cost of hire is
up to 70% less expensive than chartering
in the Whitsunday’s
It
is much cheaper
to travel to the Gold Coast
for most people than the Whitsunday’s.
The
Gold Coast offers a much
more sheltered and protected cruising ground
than the Whitsunday’s.
The
protected waterways allows you to have a much
larger more comfortable
vessel than would be practical in the open
waters of the Whitsunday’s
A
lower level of
experience is required to navigate our
vessels (no license required).
We
have dugongs, turtles,
whales and dolphins here too!
Good
fishing and great
crabbing (sand crabs and mud crabs)
We
don’t have stingers, no box jelly
fish down here and you can swim all year round
Our
cruising ground is incredibly diverse.
We have some of the best cruising grounds in Australia
with heaps of great sheltered anchorages such
as Marine Stadium (just behind Sea World), Sanctuary
Cove, Wave Break Island, South Stradbroke Island
(Tipplers resort), North Bedroom (millionaires
row as the locals know it), Jacobs Well, Slipping
Sands and the list goes on.
In addition
you also have easy access to all the other attractions
the Gold Coast is famous for. These include boutique
shopping, cafes, fine dining, theme parks, a host
of water related activities such as sea planes,
whale watching, jet skis, parasailing, paddle
boats etc.
The
Gold Coast has an average of
300 sunny days per year so statistically
you are more likely to get good weather.
Our
service area is on the beautiful Broadwater, which
is all enclosed
waters and is the ideal place to spend
a week or so cruising the waterways.
The
money saved from your hire fee can be spent
on more important things, such as yourself!
