You are welcome to explore Sydney Harbour, including Rose Bay, Watsons Bay, Shark Island, Chowder Bay, Mosman Bay and the Lane Cove and Parramatta rivers.

Please do not cross the line between Camp Cove and Georges Head. That means no Middle Harbour, North Harbour, Manly or open ocean — we will show you exactly where this is on your map during the briefing.

Both of our Double Bay boats are relaxed cruisers rather than fast boats, so plan a route that suits the time you have — your briefing will include some suggestions.

Frankie has a roof over roughly three quarters of the deck, so you are well covered for a passing shower.

If there is a 50% chance of rain (10mm) forecast on the morning of the hire according to the Bureau of Meteorology, you are welcome to reschedule.

✓ Bbq

✓ BYO Allowed

✗ Crew Not Included

Frankie is a 7-metre BBQ pontoon — a flat, stable deck built for long lunches on the water rather than getting anywhere quickly. No licence is required: we brief you on the day and you drive her yourself. The BBQ is the point of her.

We supply the gas, you bring the food, and you can cook properly while anchored somewhere quiet. There is an esky on board for drinks, a roof over roughly three quarters of the deck for shade, an anchor, and full safety equipment. Frankie seats 8 and departs from Double Bay.

Fuel is included. Please note there is no toilet on board, so she suits shorter trips or days where you plan to stop. Please note: Frankie is being refitted and will be ready mid-October 2026.

The photos are indicative of how she will look once finished and are for reference only. Hires available from 1 November 2026.

Yes! Frankie allows BYO food and drinks. You're welcome to bring your own catering, alcohol, and non-alcoholic beverages.

Sydney Harbour is sheltered, so most hires go ahead rain or shine — see "What if it's forecast to rain?" above for Frankie's rain policy and when you can reschedule. If conditions are genuinely unsafe (e.g. storm warnings), we'll rebook you.

Yes! You're welcome to bring a portable speaker and play your own playlist — check the add-ons when booking, as speaker hire may be available.

There's no deposit — you pay the full hire amount when you book, and your booking is confirmed instantly. A refundable $250 security hold is placed on your card the day before your hire and released after the boat is returned in good condition.

Extensions are subject to availability — call us on 0432 428 297 during your hire and we'll check whether the boat is free after your slot.
