Jump on our twin-deck red-rocket catamarans (red one's go faster) and BYO. Pack your drinks, bring your lunch but leave the big eskies behind as we cannot accept them onboard. Carry-all cooler bags are the way to go. They are lighter, always on hand when you need a drink or snack, and won't be left on the wharf when we depart on our Sydney to Hobart cruise.
