Types of Sails:
Ocean Voyages
Melbourne to Hobart and Hobart to Melbourne
Unleash your adventurous spirit on an iconic journey across Bass Strait on the only traditionally rigged vessel in Australian and New Zealand waters!
“Learn the ropes” with the crew and discover the charms and challenges of 19th century sailing on board the only commercial wooden ship to be built in Victoria in over 100 years. Recline on deck, or stand watch, handle the sails, steer the ship and climb the rigging to survey the horizon from aloft as you explore the rarely visited islands of Bass Strait, replete with white sandy beaches, spectacular scenery and historic sites.
Each unique trip may present opportunities for fishing, swimming, photography, hiking, relaxing on beaches, tasting the local cuisine, star-gazing, and observing marine wildlife in pristine environments.
This is a wild ocean adventure across infamous Bass Strait, not just a cruise! This once-in-a-lifetime experience only comes up every second year and berths are limited. Expressions of interest accepted now with online bookings opening soon.
Your voyage may include passage by or visits to Port Phillip Heads, Deal Island, Flinders Island, Tasmania’s spectacular East Coast, the Hole in the Wall between Tasman Island and Cape Pillar, Storm Bay, Bruny Island, picturesque Wineglass Bay, and much more!
All ocean voyages are weather dependant, and the route will be determined by the Master.
