Freedom Private Charter - 3 hour min - mid Oct-mid July

Freedom is a fun and affordable venue for your next family gathering, corporate event or celebration. Relax aboard our comfortable 60ft catamaran, while the captain and crew sail you through the pristine waters of the Great Sandy Straits Marine Park and K'gari. Accommodating up to 48 guests, Freedom has spacious viewing decks on three levels, comfortable air-conditioned seating in the saloon, an excellent sound system, licensed bar and three toilets and showers. See our webpage for amazing reviews from hundreds of happy guests.

Off-peak banded pricing starts at just $600 per hour with a minimum three-hour booking. This includes an experienced captain and crew. Additional hours can be booked as extras and we can optimise start and end times to take the tides into account. Anchoring (to swim or to stroll on K'Gari western beaches or Pelican Banks), stinger-proof pool, tube-ridespaddleboards and noodles can easily be added to create the perfect day for you and your guests.

Please call us to discuss our catering, which can be tailored to suit your budget. The standard option includes a charcuterie and dessert cup per guest. Different options can be provided to suit your taste and budget. Alternatively, you are welcome to organise your own catering and the galley kitchen, large fridge, freezer and esky make this very easy. Licensing restrictions do not allow BYO alcohol, but we are happy to stock your guests preferred alcoholic and soft drink options in our licensed bar.

Customer service is an important part of our training and ethos. We will do our very best to accommodate any special requests. This might be helping to put up chosen decorations or playing the 'embarrassing' birthday video and you can tailor your soundscape for the trip by bluetoothing your own playlist or booking a small band or DJ.

Entertainment extras include stopping for a swim and snorkel, beach time and using our stinger proof pool to splash about in. Additional crew will be required to supervise these activities.

All captains are fully qualified and experienced. This includes Mark Cooper, owner-operator, who has many years of experience as a captain for fun as well as commercially. He sailed a catamaran from Tahiti and down the East Coast of Australia. He has captained delivery of Sydney to Hobart yachts, and he was on the helm for three exciting Sydney to Hobart races. He has also participated in the gruelling Clipper Round the World yacht race. Safety is his highest priority and during his time as a  skipper for NSW Marine Rescue for the last three years and crew for a further five years, he has rescued many boats and saved lives on the water.
