IMPULSIVE I

Bella vista, weathersfield, what our clients have to say:.

“Now for the 7th year running, we have been so fortunate to have joined the Nova Entertainment team on the annual Christmas Cruise aboard AQA. The experience on AQA is unrivalled – from the welcome as you board, to the service provided by the wonderfully skilled and friendly staff. The refreshments and food provided is always of the highest quality and the environment of being on Sydney’s spectacular harbour in an equally spectacular superyacht is one the highlights of our year. Thankyou Sydney Harbour Yacht Charter for providing the luxury and the experience.” Rosy Sullivan, CEO, Australian College of Professionals

“We recently experienced a business Christmas function aboard AQA. We have been lucky enough to have experienced this luxury cruise a few times. We again had a great time. Staff were welcoming and made us feel very special, even with the ongoing COVID restrictions. The food was top shelf and bar service was easy and always available. They also had clay pigeon shooting which was a lot of fun. I would highly recommend anyone thinking of chartering a luxury boat on Sydney Harbour, to go no further. This team have it all….One of our best experiences. “ John Hall, Nobby Kitchens
