Bare boating

Links

 

For those who can sail, the most popular choice is bareboat charter, In other words, you choose the boat you want and crew it yourself.

Among the most popular bareboating sites is the Whitsundays in Northern Queensland. The channels between the islands are deep and the majority of islands are within line of sight from one another. The vast majority of the islands are National Parks (66 out of 74 islands).

In addition, because the island chain is a sunken mountain range rather than a string of coral atolls, safe, protected anchorages are numerous and spread evenly throughout the islands.

First timers unsure of the yacht or the waters can enjoy the services of a skipper who will stay on board until no longer needed. The base also stays in daily contact with all of its charter boats.

In addition, the boat can be provisioned ready to sail, down to select dietary items if requested.

Scuba dive equipment can also be loaded on board.

 

Reader story: Bare boating in the Whitsundays.

---

This book is justifiably known as the "bible" for boaters in the Whitsunday area of the Queensland mid-north coast. This book is SO good that it is mandatory equipment on board every charter yacht operating in the Whitsundays! Boaters use this book instead of official charts because it contains so much more information than any ordinary navigation chart.
If you plan to sail the Whitsundays get it NOW!
