Overview

You will be sailing in a Sydney to Hobart race maxi - really sailing - and on one of the most beautiful harbours in the world. The three hours takes in most of Hobart's large sheltered harbour. See Hobart at its best, with stunning views of the city, Mt. Wellington and the surrounding forests and hills that make up this most picturesque of cities. You might even see penguins, dolphins or seals (regular visitors), and sometimes even whales and orca. Grind the winches, take a turn on the helm or relax and enjoy the experience. Delicious local treats will be served for morning or afternoon tea (included in the price,) and local wines and beer are available at regular bar prices. The skipper and crew are all experienced professionals with plenty of stories of the high seas and a wealth of local knowledge to share.

The yacht trip was an exceptional experience that we had. It was a very scenic journey around Hobart. I would also like to express my gratitude to Mark and Christine for taking us around and showing us the sights.

My wife and I had a fantastic time on board Helsal. Before our trip, Mark was extremely accommodating regarding dates and booking changes. On the trip our skipper, Barry, and crew, Christina and Negala, allowed us to do as much or little as we liked including steering and hoisting sails. We had freshly baked scones soon after setting off and a cheese platter later. During the trip we saw seals and plenty of bird life. We would highly recommend this trip to anyone.

Baz and his crew, Christina and Grant, assisted by good weather and winds, provided us with a fabulous sailing experience. My wife needed assistance getting on and off the boat and they willingly provided it. I was able to get a “shot of a lifetime” photo of me helming a Sydney to Hobart yacht. The complimentary scones and cheese and biscuits were an added bonus. Baz showed us where we crossed the finish line of the Sydney to Hobart and all future finishes will have a special meaning as a result. Thanks for a wonderful experience.
