SV RHONA H
Experience tall ship SV Rhona H, a historic 1942 ketch-rigged vessel. Enjoy freshly-prepared Tasmanian refreshments as you see Hobart from the decks of part of Tasmanian maritime history. Sails are always set; you’re welcome to assist the crew or sit back and relax. In summer, set sail for Bedlam Walls Caves and Shag Bay, where you can see these amazing rock formations from the boat. Or visit the D’Entrecasteaux Channel and hear some of the history of the area. All trips sail under the Tasman Bridge – watch the depth sounder spike as you cross the shipwrecked Lake Illawarra, which sank in 1975, taking a span of the bridge with it!

YUKON TOURS
Ever imagined setting sail on a traditional ketch, bound for the remote south-west of Tasmania? The Yukon offers multi- day trips to Port Davey, a sailing holiday including calm anchorages, walks ashore and freshly-prepared meals out of the busy galley. Owners and operators for 20 years David and Ea rescued, rebuilt and sailed Yukon 40,000 nautical miles, including a sea voyage from Denmark to Tasmania, where they have settled in Franklin. From here, they offer calm river cruises on the Huon River, but also voyages to the west coast for up to eight guests.
