La Bohème is a beautifully presented Seawind 1000 sailing catamaran, and La Bohème boat hire offers a boutique, owner-operated way to enjoy Sydney Harbour with up to 20 guests. She is run by Bohemia Sailing, an all-female owned and operated charter company with more than 13 years’ experience on the harbour, and combines the stability and generous entertaining space of a catamaran with warm, personal service from your first enquiry to the moment you step aboard.
La Bohème Boat Hire Features
La Bohème offers both indoor and outdoor entertaining areas, with a comfortable saloon lounge and dining table, an onboard galley, a bathroom and a cabin, plus open deck space for soaking up the harbour views. Guests can move easily around the vessel, and the onboard BBQ makes her ideal for relaxed harbour lunches and grazing-style feasts. She is kept exceptionally clean and thoughtfully styled, with quality glassware, serving ware and reusable cups and cutlery for a higher-end, environmentally conscious feel.
Celebrations, Couples and Corporate Groups
La Bohème is well suited to birthdays, couples, family gatherings, hens parties, private groups and corporate guests looking for a relaxed yet polished day on the water. Choose from flexible catering options, from grazing platters and BBQ packages to the all-inclusive BBQ grazing package and custom menus, or bring your own.
