Weathersfield is a classic ocean sailing yacht, an outstanding example of timeless quality. A custom-built 60′ ketch, her hull is triple diagonal planked handcrafted from the finest New Zealand ‘Kauri’ timber. She boasts of old-world charm, with lineage tracing back to the 1890s. Our Weathersfield is a namesake and a descendant of an English barque and has inherited a few artefacts from the original ship.
Weathersfield’s bespoke equipages make her the perfect charter vessel to customise your experience on the breathtaking Sydney Harbour. Her spacious deck is great for entertaining up to 30 people with an aft deck canopy and on-board barbeque for a laid-back cruise.
The elegantly appointed interior is finished in English Mahogany where you can host an intimate silver service dinner for up to 8 people.
Weathersfield has 3 guest cabins. The main stateroom is fitted with a luxurious double bed and has an ensuite. The V berth sleeps 3 people with the 3rd cabin accommodating two bunk beds with a toilet and bath to share.
