Overview

Hop aboard Vigilant and enjoy a beautiful day sailing in the Bay of Islands. We only take 10 passengers, the small group allows you to lounge on the yacht comfortably and enjoy the islands privately. Our skipper lives here in Russell and knows plenty about it's history which they will be happy to share with you.

Vigilant is a beautiful traditional 42 ft Cutter rig yacht with a wineglass transom, teak decks, and a swamp kauri wooden interior. Enjoy an adventure away from the crowds of sightseers. Here, you can steer your own experience by helping the skipper at the helm, hoisting the sails or, if you prefer, just relaxing on deck while you journey from island to island. If you wish, you can swim on one of the beaches, snorkel and kayak. Comb the shores and walk around to see some great lookouts with panoramic views of the islands.

Absolutely amazing experience. Great crew and service. Lunch was very good and we got everything we needed. Island time was the perfect length to go for a walk and a swim. We loved the small group size, would absolutely recommend.

Perfect hosts - Nat and Anita looked after us really well. Knew their stuff about local history. Took us to a lovely little island. Swimming, walking and such. Lovely food. Sail back was fab We'll never use them again, 'cos we live far, far away. But you definitely should. Go on - treat yourself. You deserve it.

Weather wasn’t great but the crew made the most of it. We did get wind and were able to enjoy sailing. First mate was great, made an excellent lunch, made sure we were comfortable and worked the sails too. The captain was knowledgeable but not welcoming, which made for a uncomfortable sail. Would recommend this experience but maybe another sailboat.

Amazing day on the water, Natalie was the perfect skipper and host! Local knowledge was wonderful as was our walk across Frenchman's Bay.
