I had such a great time at the sailing trip! The crew was just amazing and so friendly and kind and I felt save the whole time! Could not have wished for a better crew :) the food was sooo good! I had the best time. I went on the boat as a solo traveller and made so many friends. The group was mixed but lovely. Can only recommend this trip. One of the best experiences on my east coast trip so far…

It was an absolutely amazing experience, our skipper Liam and his gang Jai, Kaylee and Marlee were fantastic and made our stay on-and off board a very unique adventure. Took us to some lovely snorkle spots and showed us their great sailing capabilities. Very good memories. Would recommend it anytime.

Had an absolutely brilliant time sailing the Whitsundays on Hammer, the crew were all amazing and we had a lovely small group. Would definitely recommend if you want something a bit more laidback and with a flexible itinerary which guests can input to if there's anything you really wanna see. We were lucky to see several whales, swim with a turtle and some huge parrot fish. Oh and the food was also great they won't let you get hungry!

Hi All, as an old sea dog I thoroughly enjoyed my time sailing on Hammer. The crew of Dan and Dave made each day on Hammer enjoyable. Tom expertly skippered the vessel throughout the day knowing where to be, and at what time of the day to be there. A drama free few days with plenty to eat with the option to to as much or as little as you liked. Get on board (-:

The trip was awesome. The hammer is a great boat- an ex Sydney to Hobart racer and you can feel it when you’re sailing. The crew were lovely; Sophie and Tommy were smiling, friendly and helpful with interesting local knowledge and top cooking skills. Crispy the captain was a steady hand and great storyteller. He also had heaps of time to explain the ins and outs of sailing if you were interested, and we noticed how generous he was with his knowledge with the crew. It’s awesome having someone who is just as good at doing as they are at teaching. Yummy food as mentioned above, we were never hungry. The scenery was second to none. We loved having so much time on the boat- it meant you could relax into the trip and felt no time pressure at all which made for a relaxing experience while also packing heaps of activities in. Being on the boat for 3 days means you go where the weather tells you to go, which for us meant lots of sailing, swimming, snorkelling, beach hangs, and good amount of chill time watching the amazing scenery float by. Comfy bedding and a terrific bunch of people to share the experience with on our trip. We’ll be glowing for weeks! Don’t miss out on this experience and if you have the time, opt for this length at a minimum- you won’t regret it. 💕
