Old racing yachts never die, they simply sail off into a tropical sunset. Just such a fate was awaiting Alan Bond's former America's Cup training vessel, "Apollo III", when she finished her racing career.
"Apollo III" is a 55ft ocean racing that has campaigned in most of the major yacht races around the world . Catering for a maximum of only 12 guests her flat decks and full headroom throughout offers comfort with the excitement of fast sailing. You too can become part of the crew of this performance racing yacht. Set the sails, grind the winches or take a turn at the helm.
Note: There is no bar on-board. Guests should bring their own drinks.

Child prices cover 4 to 14 year olds. Younger children maybe accepted to travel on Reef Odyssey by arrangement.
For families travelling with Kids, Coral Trekker has a Tarzan Swing for them to play on and the crew get kids to help with the sails and sailing. So while there are no specific Kid programs, children are very much included in the day to day activities.
Reef Odyssey has a glass bottom boat so children who dont swim well or snorkel can still enjoy the sights of the reef.
