Catch the breeze and set sail for the day on board the unique tall ship "R. Tucker Thompson", built in the tradition of 100 year old schooners by local Northlanders. She has sailed the world but today will explore the somewhat calmer seas of the Bay of Islands with you on board.

Help set the sails, take the helm or just lie back on deck and relax. Hear tales of the ship's exploits from the crew. Enjoy the Devonshire tea freshly baked and brewed in the galley each morning.

At lunchtime the vessel anchors in a secluded bay. Step ashore, take a swim or try swinging from the yardarm. With all this sea air and activity you'll have a hearty appetite - taken care of by a tasty barbecue lunch cooked on board.

Note: The R Tucker Thompson returns to the Bay of Islands from an overseas voyage to Korea and the U.S in early December. Sailing will commence on the 10th December 2002, meanwhile we are using a replacement sailing vessel - 'Windborne' until December 9th.

A barbecue lunch is included. The vessel is licensed for you to enjoy a drink on board.

Features:
  • Plenty of time to sunbathe and swim.
  • Secluded island and beach excursion.
  • A relaxing day with a small group on a unique vessel.
  • Wet weather gear supplied if required.
  • Morning tea and lunch included.
  • This vessel is owned and operated by the 'Harris Family Patnership'.
