Fantastisches Erlebnis

Wir hatten das Glück nur zu zehnt auf dem Boot zu sein, wodurch es ausreichend Platz für jeden gab - auch wenn alle auf dem Oberdeck waren. Die erste Gruppe am Whitehaven Beach zu sein war fantastisch. Insbesondere wenn man bei Ebbe ankommt und das steigende Wasser wahrnehmen kann. Es sieht dann komplett anders aus. Besonders hervorzuheben sind auch Greg und Heath, das Essen war echt der Hammer! Tolle Schnorchelgänge mit bunten Korallen und unzähligen Fischen

Wir hatten eine fantastische Zeit auf und im Wasser! Die Crew war sehr nett und hat einiges zur Landschaft erklärt. Das Essen war gut und ausreichend und der Service wirklich hervorragend. Wir hatten Glück mit dem Wetter und haben sehr viele schöne Schnorchel und Segel Momente gehabt. Die Milchstraße wirkt vom Boot nachts noch überwältigender :)

Hi Philipp, Thank-you very much for spending your 2-day's and 2-nights in the Whitsundays with us :) We agree, nothing comes close to a clear, light pollution free starry night! We all hope that you'll come back and see us again! ~OzSail Team

Super Erlebnis

Ein super Erlebnis auf einem einfachen Niveau des Bootes. Skipper, Route und das erlebte waren perfekt, viele Tiere, tolle Landschaften und gute Verpflegung im Rahmen des Möglichen. 14 Leute und 2 Crew Mitglieder lasten das Schiff aus. Es wurde viel unter Motor gefahren, da der Wind nicht ausreichend war. Das Schiff incl. Wasch und Toiletten ist eher einfach gehalten.

Wunderbar

Tolle 2 Tage. Wunderschöne Strände, viel im Wasser und eine tolle Crew. Das Boot hat seine besten Tage allerdings hinter sich und ist relativ klein. Außerdem gibt es keinerlei bequeme Sitzmöglichkeit.

Hi Florian, Thanks for your feedback onboard Mandrake, the boat itself is an older sailing champion which has been restored into a much more comfortable charter vessel. We value your feedback and hope to have you aboard with us again soon. ~OzSail Team
