Bareboat Yacht Charters Whitsundays Qld
For
those
who
can
sail,
the
most
popular
choice
is bareboat
charter,
In other
words,
you
choose
the
boat
you
want
and
crew
it yourself. Sailing
in the
Whitsundays
is a
yachties
dream.
The
channels
between
the
islands
are
deep
and
the
majority
of islands
are
within
line
of sight
from
one
another.
The
vast
majority
of the
islands
are
National
Parks
(66
out
of 74
islands).
In addition,
because
the
island
chain
is a
sunken
mountain
range
rather
than
a string
of coral
atolls,
safe,
protected
anchorages
are
numerous
and
spread
evenly
throughout
the
islands.
The
line-up
of yachts
in Abel
Point
Marina
at Airlie
Beach
are
world
class.
They
range
from
two
berth
yachts,
perfect
for
couples,
to sleek
and
roomy
nine
berth
yachts
of ocean
going
size.
There
are
modern
cruising
catamarans
with
up to
10 berths
which
can
be treated
as a
motor
cruiser
or if
the
whim
or wind
takes,
set
to sail
power.
There
are
modern,
reliable
motor
cruisers,
which
traditional
yachties
tend
to call
luxury
floating
homes.
First
timers
unsure
of the
yacht
or the
waters
can
enjoy
the
services
of a
skipper
who
will
stay
on board
until
no longer
needed.
The
base
stays
in daily
contact
with
all
of its
charter
boats.
In addition,
the
boat
can
be provisioned
ready
to sail,
down
to select
dietary
items
if requested.
Scuba
dive
equipment
can
also
be loaded
on board.
