About Pirate Ship Mandurah

Pirate Ship Mandurah is a hand-built, pirate-styled vessel that sails from the Eastern Foreshore Jetty, opposite 9 Mandurah Terrace. Alongside its public cruises, the ship can be hired outright, so your group has it to itself with a captain and a crew who stay in pirate character for the whole trip. Private hire suits birthdays, work functions, hens parties and farewells. Most groups book two hours, which allows a full loop of the Port Mandurah canals and the estuary with time to sit down and eat. The crew adjust the tone to the group, and dolphins are a regular sight on the water. There is no bar or liquor licence aboard, so guests bring their own food and drinks, carried on at the start and taken off at the end. BYO is limited to the last hire of the day, and anything more than light nibbles also needs that final slot. An esky of ice can be added on longer late hires, and two small tables are set up for catering on hires longer than an hour. The ship carries up to 50 guests, with 40 suggested when food is served. Kids parties are catered for too, from joining a public sailing to booking the whole ship midweek at a fixed price, and the crew sing happy birthday and handing out flags and lollipops.

Pricing

Private charter is priced at $34 per person per hour with a 20-guest minimum, so $680 per hour at the minimum, capped at $1,020 per hour for a full boat of 50 (two hours is $68 per person, three hours $102). Midweek outside school holidays, a 45-minute whole-boat hire is $680 flat for up to 50.

An ice-filled esky is $25 on late hires of two hours or more. Hourly rates exclude public holidays, special event dates and the Christmas period, and every hire is quoted individually.

Food

There is no catering on board. Groups bring their own food, loaded at the start and taken away at the end, and anything more than light nibbles requires the last hire of the day. Two small oval tables are provided for BYO catering on hires longer than one hour.

Beverages

The ship has no bar and no liquor licence, so drinks are BYO and are only allowed on the last hire of the day. An 85-litre esky packed with ice costs $25 extra when the final hire of the day runs two hours or more.

Wharfs & Availability

All charters board at the Eastern Foreshore Jetty in Mandurah, opposite 9 Mandurah Terrace, and cruise the Port Mandurah canals and the estuary. Standard departures are 12pm to 4pm, with off-peak midweek slots and other times possible on a two-hour minimum.
