About Kirralee

Step aboard Kirralee for a Sydney Harbour experience that balances comfort with genuine versatility. At 33 feet (10.5 metres) long, this catamaran gives your group plenty of room to move, whether you're gathered in the large enclosed cabin out of the weather or stretched out on the front bow nets catching some sun. Kirralee comes fitted out with everything a group needs to enjoy the day their way. Play your own playlist through the iPod dock with AUX connectivity, feeding both the interior and exterior speakers, and make use of the well-equipped galley and onboard gas BBQ to keep everyone fed. Two large eskies keep drinks cold, with ice supplied, and there's an onboard toilet plus a swimming ladder for anyone keen to jump in for a swim during the charter. Whether you're planning a birthday, a bucks party, a corporate outing or just a casual cruise with friends, Kirralee's mix of shaded and open-air spaces, practical facilities and easygoing atmosphere makes it a solid choice for a Sydney Harbour charter.

Pricing

Charters on Kirralee start from $425 per hour with a minimum booking of 3 hours. If you'd like to decorate or set up before your charter officially begins, a Pre-Access Surcharge of $250 applies for 30 to 60 minutes of early access ahead of your start time, subject to availability, and this covers decorating, set-up and DJ bump-in only (it doesn't cover inspections or catering drop-offs). Only up to 4 people are permitted onboard during this pre-access window.

Food

Kirralee gives you plenty of flexibility when it comes to food. You can choose from a banquet or buffet menu, a canape or platter menu, or make the most of the onboard gas BBQ with a dedicated BBQ menu. Table dining is available onboard, and if you'd rather organise your own catering, BYO food is welcome, with plates, cutlery and cups provided.

Bringing an external commercial chef or caterer onboard is possible but only on application, as the vessel's facilities are limited.

Beverages

BYO alcohol is allowed on Kirralee, with ice provided to keep everything cold in the two large onboard eskies. Self-catered charters need to bring a substantial amount of food alongside any drinks. If you'd prefer not to BYO, a non-alcoholic drinks package is available for $5 per person per hour, though beverage selections may vary depending on availability, and special requests can be quoted individually.

Note that a 20% surcharge applies on public holidays and special events, and BYO food and beverages carry a $180 charge per charter.

Wharfs & Availability

Kirralee is available for charter every day, though it's worth checking our real-time calendar or enquiring directly to confirm your date. Charters run for a minimum of 3 hours, with preferred slots of 11am-2pm, 12pm-3pm, 3.30pm-6.30pm, 4pm-7pm or 7pm-10pm, while 4-hour charters typically run 11am-3pm, 12pm-4pm, 1pm-5pm, 5pm-9pm or 6pm-10pm.

These times can shift depending on availability for your chosen date. Bucks parties are capped at 3 hours, a maximum of 29 passengers, and must start no later than 1pm.

Popular pickup points include King St Wharf in the CBD, which is the most requested option, along with Eastern Pontoon at Circular Quay, Lavender Bay, Rose Bay and Mosman Bay. All wharves depend on availability, and other locations can be arranged on request, sometimes with additional fees. Charters departing from locations west of Gladesville Bridge, as well as Manly and Balmoral, incur an extra hour's charge.

Meet the Team

Frank & Ann – Your Hosts

Frank and Ann went into business together in 2015, when they bought the catamaran Kirralee, and have since added Fleetwing II and Heaven to run three boats on Sydney Harbour. Kirralee is the boat where it all started for them. Frank skippers the cruises and looks after the operations side, and guests tend to remember his warm, easy-going welcome. Ann runs sales, events and marketing, and her eye for detail keeps each booking smooth from the first enquiry to the end of the day.
