About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- kevinkK4775HR0 contributionsAristocat and Moreton Bay were awesomeWe had a wonderful time sailing Moreton Bay on Aristocat. The bay is well protected by the barrier islands so the water is not too rough but the wind is good for some great sailing days. The boat easily fit our crew of 7 with ensuite heads in each of the 4 staterooms. The galley, dinette and cockpit were spacious and comfortable to enjoy the great times out on the water. The boat is setup with all the toys/ etc you need to enjoy the area, paddleboards, snorkel gear, dingy etc. Getting on and off was simply and easy and the Cleveland area is a great starting point to sail around the bay. Our family lived on a 46 foot catamaran in the Caribbean for 2 years so we know what to expect and Aristocat lived up to all of our expectations. When we are back in Australia we would definitely charter againWritten 7 January 2025
- debbiejZ6205MW0 contributionsEnjoyable experience!We booked Brisbane Yacht Charters for our Christmas Party and we were not disappointed. Everyone loved it, it was relaxed, the crew were fantastic. It is well worth the experience. Thank you, guys! RSGxWritten 17 December 2024
- kimcE432QE0 contributionsGreat Bareboat Experience on Moreton BayWe rented Aristocat a few weeks ago and had a truly wonderful 4 days on board. Aristocat was presented very well, with everything clean and ship shape to start our bareboat charter. I have chartered Aristocat a few times in the past but not for several years and it was great to be back on board with a good group of friends, 4 couples in total enjoying some great sailing and protected overnight anchorages around northern Moreton Bay. Snorkelling the wrecks and seeing the abundant fishes at Tangalooma was a highlight for everyone. Thank you, Darren, for making this an easy, pleasant boating experience, which I am sure we will do again.Written 30 November 2024

- scottsL7068DR0 contributionsFamily fun on the bay!!!What a perfect day. My beautiful Wife and daughters bought this for me as a father's day present. Darren and Max made us feel very welcome aboard. Even though the water was a bit choppy the sailing trip was very comfortable. We just sat back and enjoyed the wonderful scenery the bay has to offer. We had lovely fresh lunch on the way to our destination. Once we'd arrived, Max took us ashore to Peel island for a bit of beach time and exploring. On return to the boat there was cups of tea, coffee, water and biscuits on hand. We also took our own drinks which were in esky's provided. The trip back to the Marina was sensational with the sun setting as we returned. It was definitely an experience I won't forget and one we will definitely do again in the near future. Thank you Darren and Max for a great day. Cheers ScottWritten 31 May 2022
- phoebesscubagrandma0 contributionsA wonderful day outYesterday, my husband and I took a group of 8 Intellectually Disabled Adults on a cruise on the Aristocat. It was a fabulous day, and we all had a wonderful time. Darren and Max always had the time to chat with us and looked after us like VIP's, even posing for a photo with us once we'd arrived home. The boat has plenty of places to sit, in and out of the sun, and the lunch was plentiful and tasty, with our gluten free and lactose free dietary requirements well provided for. The aqua mat was so much fun and we could also have taken the zodiac over to the island. We will definitely be booking again.Written 29 May 2022
- Grace T0 contributionsBeautiful time and great staff.We had a fantastic day on the yacht. It was super roomy as we had 24 people in our group and you wouldn't even know that there is actually that many people aboard. Plenty of room to have your own little space and was great to stretch out on the net. The cruise was beautiful and relaxing. The buffet was lovely, all the food was so fresh and the staff are super accommodating. I would recommend to anyone looking to do an outdoors activity. I came home after yesterday and felt like I had been at the spa.Written 29 May 2022

Darren and his crew did a fabulous job putting this cruise together! He even contacted us prior to the day since the weather did not look favourable in the afternoon - we ended up switching to the morning and it was such a wonderful time. There were 8 of us booked on the tour and we all enjoyed it in our own way! My husband, Greg, had the best time being assistant to Darren.
The boat was wonderful, clean, spacious and very stable. The antipasto platter was devoured very quickly and the coffee and tea were such a great personal touch.
Thank you so much to Darren and team for having us, such a great tour to do when you're all the way from Canada!

A fabulous afternoon on the Aristocrat with Darren and Lyn. The mood was so calm and relaxing. The group was made up of families, couples and some older guests. There was something for every age group. We motored over to Peel Island and anchored in Horeshoe Bay. You had many choices once we arrived. Stand up paddle boarding, swimming off the back of the boat, Quabed play or relax or take the Zodiac to the shore for beach activities or a bush walk.
We were treated to an amazing feast whilst we sailed back to Cleveland.
A great afternoon and a wonderful experience.

We had the most amazing afternoon sailing trip to Peel Island with Darren! His calming energy and warm smile set the tone for an unforgettable experience. Between the stunning views, the peaceful vibe, and Darren’s genuine charm, it was hard not to feel completely swept away. If you’re looking for a relaxing escape with a host who knows how to make you feel special, Darren’s your man!

Had an amazing half day sailing moreton bay. Darren and Linney are great captain and crew. Antipasto and fruit platter yummy and plenty to go around. Anchored near Peel and the floating matt and paddle boards where heaps of fun. Got to see a bit of wildlife.

This is our second trip out with our business. We take Intellectually Disabled adults out on day trips etc., and the crew from Brisbane Yacht Charters have always made our cheerful group very comfortable. I have also bought a gift voucher for our son for Christmas. I would definitely recommend them.

We took a group of Intellectually Disabled adults on the Aristocat, and as always, we had a lovely time. Our crew made us feel very welcome and our favourite activity was the floating mat.
We do this tour around once a year, and will continue to enjoy the Aristocat and beautiful Moreton Bay.
