As a general rule we only recommend boats of a minimum quality for Corporate cruises, this includes both customer service and appearance of the boat.
There are four main types of corporate clients we work with:
Staff Parties
This is the biggest group particularly around Christmas.
Since the main emphasis is on a good time, we look for boats that have a sociable layout and a fun yet professional crew or cruise director.
Of course this is a treat for the employees so where budgets allow, we focus on the luxurious boats with the good value but higher quality food and drink packages.
We understand a small startup is going to have very different requirements to a large established business, and often a large business will split up into smaller groups for their Christmas party, so we've included a range of the best to suit all sizes and budgets.
Entertaining Clients
This is particularly popular for overseas clients that have come to visit. We have a range of high and very high quality vessels suitable for impressing clients.
We have included BYO options as clients often like to have stopoffs at Manly, Darling Harbour or Watsons Bay and we can sometimes offer shorter cruises for corporate events if required.
Team Building and Staff Incentives
This can range from sailing races to Harbour treasure hunts or simply a luxury boat charter as a reward for good team performance.
Product Launches
Product launches require luxurious boats in perfect condition, with top customer service and lots of open space.
Typically they will have good spaces to place popup banners, plenty of tables, wireless microphones and large or multiple screens for showing presentations etc.
Light but high quality cocktail food is normally required with a nice bar area with consumption based bar packages since volume consumed is generally lower.
And The Winner Is...Aqua
Aqua is one of the most well known boats on the Harbour - you may have seen it whilst walking along Darling Harbour where it lives. The boat gets regular updates to ensure it keeps at the forefront of the market with stylish interior design, great open air top deck and the famous floor to ceiling glass windows.
