About this catamaran
Aqua Days is a Leopard 44 sailing catamaran built for groups who want room to spread out. Four double cabins, each with its own bathroom, plus two singles in the forward cabins. Up to ten people can share a boat without having to share much else. A forward cockpit door opens her right through from stern to bow, so the saloon catches the breeze all day, and there's seating inside and out for everybody at once. She's yours for the whole charter. No cabins sold off separately, no other guests, no schedule but your own. Your cruising ground is the Great Sandy Strait, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve running down the sheltered western side of K'gari. Hervey Bay is the world's first Whale Heritage Site, and from July to October the humpbacks come into the bay to rest with their calves before heading south. Embark on a self-drive (bareboat) charter on board Aqua Days with no licence needed and no skipper required - we'll talk you through everything at your briefing before you head out. Set sail, adventure and relax at your own place while exploring K'gari (Fraser Island), Wathumba Creek, Moon Point, Kingfisher Bay and more. Your rate covers the full vessel (not per person), all bedding, towels, kitchen and cooking gear, and your safety briefing - just bring clothes, food and drinks. Minimum 3 night hire.
