About
Come sailing aboard the 62 foot luxury Sydney to Hobart Maxi, Helsal IV. Experience what it is like to sail one of these magnificent crafts; even take the wheel if you like! Come for just a few hours on the Derwent or plunge right into the adventure and sail away with us on a yacht charter to places unimagined. Whether you choose to play on the Derwent, escape to the wilderness, or something in between, you'll never look to the sea in quite the same way again.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We had so much fun with Mark and Phil. Very chill. We are sailors visiting from the US and had a blast. They even put up the huge spinnaker for us! So fun and the wine/cheese was a great touch. Highly recommended for experienced sailors or casual sailing for fun

This was a truly awesome experience. The crew looked after the passengers exceptionally well, and nothing was too difficult to ensure that everyone enjoyed the sailing afternoon.
Everything was just perfect. I highly recommend this sailing trip.

Mark and Jimmy were great hosts onboard their 62 foot yacht. We were greet with freshly made scones and tea and finished off with cheese and wine. And the sailing in-between in some inclement weather was excellent. Mark was full of general knowledge around the area so we got a bit of a history lesson for free.

What an experience. Mark and his crew made us feel part of the team for a race in the harbour with about 40-50 other yachts. Incredible views, exhilarating flying along sideways in the water and some awesome banter with competing yachts. Absolutely loved it and would recommend to everyone. Awesome way to spend the evening. Thanks for having us Mark.

5-Star Experience on the Derwent River with Helsal IV

Embarking on the Helsal IV, we were immediately welcomed by the grandeur of the 62-foot Sydney to Hobart Maxi yacht. The craftsmanship and design were evident as its sails billowed, propelling us along the tranquil waters of the Derwent River with elegance and grace.

Mark and Christina, our gracious hosts, ensured our comfort throughout the journey, offering a selection of warm or chilled beverages. The morning was made even more delightful with freshly baked scones, lavishly topped with Tasmanian jam and cream, alongside a meticulously curated Tasmanian cheese board.

Steering such an impressive vessel was an unforgettable experience, providing a mix of thrill and relaxation. For those seeking an adventure that also offers a touch of indulgence, a sail on the Helsal IV is a top recommendation. It’s a magnificent way to appreciate Tasmania’s natural charm. Highly recommended!

Loved this experience. Have watched the Sydney to Hobart so many times and now I too have sailed into Constitution Dock (the easy way LOL). The crew were awesome. You should do this!

On a blustery cold day in late October we headed to the Wharf to meet with Mark and his crew for our sailing experience on Helsal 1V. Once rugged up, thanks for the blankets, the sails set and we were flying down the Derwent.
We were served delicious home cooked scones and fresh fruit by Christina.
Mark and the crew expertly maneuvered the yacht for our levels of comfort.
I would definitely recommend this experience.

Spring can be pretty unpredictable but Helsal IV can cope with anything. Glad you enjoyed yourself : )

A great afternoon sailing for us
novices . All we expected and more.
Mark kept us informed and
entertained with his local knowledge.
We did little bits to steer, navigate and
manage sails. Perfect thanks
