Williamstown · MelbournePrivate · up to 25A private boat from Williamstown
A private venue without four walls.
A cruise creates an easy flow for a hens day or night. Everyone arrives at the same place, boards together and gets three uninterrupted hours with the city and water changing around the group.
Choose a departure point that suits the guests and tell us the atmosphere you have in mind. We can discuss the route, catering or BYO food, drinks, music, decorations and any special plans before confirming the charter. The rear deck can be enclosed when conditions require it, giving the group a more comfortable space on the water.
