Southern Cross - 3 Day / 2 Night

Southern Cross was built by Perth entrepreneur Alan Bond for the Americas Cup and designed by the famous yacht designer Ben Lexcen. She is 68ft long with a 97ft mast and was built for wind conditions of 10 - 18 knots, which is perfect for sailing the Whitsunday Islands.

Southern Cross's conversion to an overnight charter vessel took 2 years and included new cockpits, new coach roof, new diesel engine and cabin fit out downstairs to make her into a comfortable yacht for overnight sailing charters.

If you are after an exciting sailing experience with a smaller group, then Southern Cross is perfect.
