Breathtaking Views

The sails unfurled and we glided along the River Derwent.  The panoramic views of Hobart, nestled at the foot of our majestic kunanyi/Mt Wellington, were nothing short of spectacular.


The tranquility of the sheltered waters made for a smooth and enjoyable sail, perfect for enthusiast sailors and those new to the experience.
