Corporate boat charter, Brisbane
The hardest part of client entertainment is attention.
Restaurants are loud, stadium boxes empty at half time, and golf takes five hours to say one thing. A private boat on Moreton Bay holds a small group together for six: one captain, up to seven guests, nobody else. The conversations that matter happen at anchor.
- 6 hours
- Up to 7 guests, one private group
- New Farm or Manly Boat Harbour
What companies use the boat for
Client entertainment
Six uninterrupted hours with the people who matter to your business. No venue noise, no neighbouring tables, no clock. A guest who has snorkelled the Tangalooma Wrecks with you remembers it longer than any lunch.
Executive and team days
Small leadership groups do their thinking off-site for a reason. Seven guests keeps it senior; the bay keeps phones in pockets. Anchored on a quiet sandbank, the agenda actually gets discussed.
Rewards and milestones
A contract signed, a quarter landed, a colleague to thank: a private day on the bay says it better than a gift card. French style catering, champagne offered on arrival, and the day shaped around your group.
Visiting executives
One free day in Brisbane between meetings. Depart from New Farm, a short ride from the CBD hotels, and be back in time for an evening flight, with the heart of Moreton Bay in between.
Built for a working host
You host, Captain Jeremy runs the day. He reads the conditions, picks the route (the Tangalooma Wrecks, Amity Banks or a quiet Peel Island anchorage), serves lunch and keeps the timing invisible, so your attention stays on your guests. As a marine scientist with more than a decade on this bay, he also carries the conversation whenever you want him to: turtles, dugongs, the wrecks, the sandbanks.
Weekdays are the quiet secret: the bay is near empty Monday to Thursday, and the midweek rate applies automatically when you book online. There is no separate corporate rate and no minimum. A company books the same three private charters as anybody else, priced per boat and never per seat: $1,390 for two guests, $1,890 for up to four guests and $2,400 for up to seven guests, on Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Queensland public holidays. Monday to Thursday those become $1,290, $1,690 and $2,200. Catering, champagne offered on arrival, snorkelling gear and fuel are all included; invoicing and itinerary letters for guests are no trouble.
Need room for more than seven? For larger groups we run split days or repeat charters across a week, and can recommend trusted partners for parallel vessels. Tell us the shape of your group and we will design the day around it.
