Quick Walkthrough
Boarding from the rear deck, you step straight into the lounge area, with the kitchen and dining area off to the side.
The loungeroom provides quite a lot of space and a separate area if friends decide to stay overnight – using the double sofa bed.
The master bed at the front at the front of Wavebreak is walk-around making it easy to sneak out of bed for a midnight fishing session, or perhaps to prepare a breakfast surprise.
This bed is prepared with sheets and pillows ready for you to use. Doona is provided during the winter and blankets over the warmer months. Don’t forget your towels!
There is a set of single bunks near the console if you decide to bring the family, or the bunks fold down as another lounge if you would like to relax in this area of the boat. You will need to bring (or hire from us) linen for the extra beds if you need to use these beds.
A generously sized bathroom for the size of the vessel. Plenty of room to clean up after your dip in the river.
Great upper deck with a solid roof and clears for weather protection – perfect to enjoy a meal straight from the Weber BBQ with a cool drink from the esky.
