The Vessel

Lovingly restored our 63 foot ketch is designed for adventure while also boasting a comfortable saloon and spacious deck area where guests can relax and enjoy the amazing sunsets.

Renowned for its amazing aqua blue water, snorkelling and countless tropical beaches, you will discover a world of pure wonder as you stay and play around the Whitsundays. Laze on the famous Whitehaven Beach, snorkel or kayak on fringing reef in the World Heritage Marine Park and find your own piece of paradise.

With a selection of tours on offer, we are sure you will find the best tour for your Whitsunday Adventure!

A classic timber ketch handcrafted in 1945 by master shipwrights in South Australia, Summertime has been beautifully restored and is the ultimate in sailing comfort. While retaining all her old world charm, she has been re-fitted and fully equipped with modern conveniences including fully air conditioned and even a fresh water jacuzzi!

Topside you find spacious decks with areas to snooze in the shade or soak up some sun. Entering the wheelhouse you’re greeted with a rich timber fit out and classic ambience. From here, your skipper will helm your voyage to adventure. Although traditionally charming with its hand turned wheel, the wheelhouse is fully air conditioned and equipped with every conceivable gadget of the 21st century! Ask your skipper to explain the navigation and sailing aids while you cruise the islands – or take the helm and experience being captain yourself!

Stepping down into the saloon… its spacious and comfortable, the ideal spot to relax in air conditioned comfort, take in a movie or the day’s slide show of your Summertime adventures. Equipped with two large toilets and showers, sleeping afloat is a sensational experience – you’ll enjoy some of the best sleeps ever as the ocean laps the wooden hulls and Summertime bobs gently at anchor.
