Humans have enjoyed a fruitful association with non-motor powered watercraft ever since Noah skippered his ark to safety back in Biblical times. Now you can put on your captain’s cap and sail away with today’s Cudo from Portland Roads in the Whitsundays!

Explore all 74 glorious islands on board ‘Portland Roads’, a luxury yacht that sleeps up to eight people! You and up to seven of your nearest and dearest (adults or children) can climb aboard for two nights’ sailing around the stunning Whitsunday Islands for just $960! This ultimate family holiday adventure would usually set you back $3600, but today you can cast off for 70% less, thanks to the awesome team from Portland Roads. Sailing experience and a boat licence is preferred, but not compulsory. And that means everyone can get involved!

It is important that you read the accompanying Terms & Conditions PDF before purchasing this offer:

‘Portland Roads’ is a hybrid catamaran, which means you can sail OR motor your way around the islands (please note: no fuel is included in the offer). Step on boardand take your pick from the three gorgeous queen size cabins with ensuites. All linen is supplied and it features a self-contained kitchen, flat screen TV, DVD player and a comprehensive DVD and book library for you to peruse at leisure. You can BYO food and drinks or Portland Roads can help you organise a spread for your luxury journey.

You’ll depart from the Abel Point Marina at Airlie Beach but before you head towards the horizon, you’ll have a thorough briefing session including charter, navigation, sailing, boat handling, ropes and amenities.

On board, you’ll have a copy of ‘100 Magic Miles’ - your road map to the beautiful Whitsundays. This can be cross referenced with your on board sat nav. And you’ll be in radio contact with your land base twice a day to make sure the holiday’s running smooth and to inform you of any weather changes. All safety equipment is included and you’ll have 24 hour mobile or satellite contact too, PLUS a motorised run-about boat so you can moor the catamaran and head to the shore whenever you like!

Airlie Beach is less than an hour and a half flying time from Brisbane – not far at all for the holiday of a lifetime! Grab today’s Cudo and discover the pristine waters of far north Queensland in a way you never thought possible, with two nights’ on board ‘Portland Roads’ for you and up to seven of your favourite people. It's just $960! You’d be lucky to get a ticket on the ark for that!
