Vessel

Apollo has had a long and rich racing history! Having competed in regattas worldwide, winning the Sydney Hobart race and the South China Sea Series, Apollo has become one of the most well-known maxi yachts in Australia! Combining her accomplished racing history and lasting popularity, Apollo is set to impress as she cruises through the Whitsunday waters at top speeds!

The accommodation on board 67 foot maxi, Apollo is shared, with both single and double bunks located throughout the vessel. There’s plenty of space for guests to roam around the saloon, sun bake on the spacious decks, or dive off the sides into the deep blue below. Apollo is designed to be an action-filled home away from home. She was constructed originally in 1980 as a racing boat then underwent a refit in 1999 where she was converted into a comfortable charter boat, which is what she is today! Apollo has since been chartering guests around the Whitsundays, offering an authentic and adventurous sailing experience!
