(Sold out) Boxing Day - Sydney to Hobart race experience - Departs Manly Wharf - on vessel Extreme

Get a front row seat to the start of the most exciting and prestigious yacht race in the world. Follow the yachts at high speed from in the harbour, out of the heads and down the coast before blasting back to Sydney at full speed.

The 2 hour experience offers unparralelled viewing of this spectacular race. Not only will you witness the jostle at the starting line but our vessel also has the capabilities and the speed to follow the competitors out of the harbour and off the coast, into the open ocean. We will track south with the race leaders and follow them down the coastline past the world famous Bondi Beach possibly as far as Maroubra Beach.

Departs from Manly Wharf.

This is an event not to be missed.

In can become quite rough out in the open ocean so this is not for the faint of heart.

Departing Manly Wharf 30 minutes before the race start giving us plenty of time to move into a perfect position.
