BOAT HIRE SYDNEY - EXPERIENCES

Skipper George was so laid back, asking us where we wanted to head to for the day which made our experience feel totally personalised. He even went to the effort to drop anchor in a shallower bay so that those of us not sure about the deep harbour waters, were able to get in for a swim. Andrew, our host, made sure we always had a full drink in our hands (which was an unexpected bonus) and cooked a fab BBQ spread for us all. Both crewmembers were friendly and good company for the day.

Thank you to the team at Eastcoast Sailing for a totally memorable Christmas Party. From booking to boarding, the whole experience was simple and hassle free, allowing us to enjoy the spectacular day.

Thank you Kylie, George and Andrew. (keep it up!) Merry Christmas!

We had a lovely time last Friday up in Pittwater for my Mum’s 70th Birthday.

Jim, the skipper, was great with the kids and his calm manner somehow effortlessly managed to put my oldest, who had been quite anxious of sailing at ease. He also encouraged each of the children to take a turn at the helm, which they all loved, and we spotted dolphins right by the boat, which was very special.

Pittwater is a great location for sailing and we would go back in an instant if we could!

Thank you for organising the trip. Best wishes

I just want to congratulate you and your company for enabling us to have the most awesome time! Thank you so much your advice was impeccable, having the extra time was wonderful and the catering made it so enjoyable for all of us hosting the party. The crew, Susannah and Mark, were terrific. Susannah took so many wonderful photos for me and Mark showed us the sights and took us to a magical cove and cooked the perfect BBQ. I will certainly recommend you and your company.

We loved our east coast sailing experience. Your customer service before the boat was impeccable, all of our needs and questions were taken care of with an amazing promptness. On the boat Lisa the captain was a delight to be with she was interesting informative and fun. We loved our sailing experience the storm was beautiful to watch and the sunset was stunning. There is nothing I like better than being on a boat in Sydney harbour. I would recommend east coast sailing at the drop of a hat.

I was very satisfied with the service you provided. I was overseas so found it very stressful trying to book this event from so far. However Kylie helped to relieve this stress by being helpful, friendly and quick with email responses. I had no issues at all with the booking. The boat was fantastic and we all had a great day. So thanks so much to Eastcoast Sailing.

Very nice boat, skipper was great had good knowledge about the bay and the beaches. The company was communicating all the time about the timing and pick up, very professional would definitely use them again.

Ryan was super accommodating for our last minute booking and we had an absolute blast. Andy and Milena on board were a hoot

I booked Mark and his boat for my good friends who were visiting Sydney on their honeymoon so that they could see the harbour in all of it's glory. Mark did a amazing job of looking after them.

The process from booking to sailing was easy and smooth. The skipper was phenomenal and he knew exactly where to take us for our trip. We had a great time and we were always in safe hands.

January, 2024

We had the pleasure of spending the day out on 'La Dolce Vita' skippered by Steve. Steve is the bee's knees and the boat was the perfect size for our group of 4. We hit all the best spots of Sydney, and some beach spots that are only accessible by boat. We're already planning the next outing. Thank you Fred and Steve for sharing your boat, knowledge and passion with us!

Ryan was very quick to respond to our last-minute query. The booking process was smooth and we gad a great time on the boat!
