Crew wanted sailing from Sydney to Hamilton Island departing mid May 2025
Here are the details about one of the greatest coastal voyages in Australia (and possibly the whole world) !
We plan to depart Hamilton Island around mid May and be in Whitsundays about 3 weeks later. We will stop at major ports of call along the way that could include Coffs Harbour, Southport, Fraser Island, Bundaberg, Lady Musgrave Island, Great Kepple Island, Rosslyn Bay, Percy Island & the best of the Whitsunday Islands. There is not enough time to visit all of these ports so the decision to break the journey will be made en route depending on prevailing weather & the time available in our schedule.
You can read about the fun by reading an article that was written by a previous participant. If you email me I will send you the article.
This is not a paid job and there are expenses we all share equally. Full details are in an email that I can send you if you advise your email address and contact details
There will be about 7 in the crew, so we will have 3 watches (2 persons) of 3 hours duration allowing for a decent period of relaxation when not on deck.
Inclusion in the crew, will allow participants to gain valuable “sea time” which will not only be recognised by the Australian Yachting Federation but also count towards the Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) experience required for commercial marine qualifications.
