Curious George is a 12-metre Cougar Cat with a 5.5-metre beam, so she’s very spacious. Her wide-open deck has a tropical feel, with artificial grass flooring, green furnishings, ivy and a large rain cover for showery days. Two 12-inch powered PA speakers deliver great sound for a DJ or your own playlist. The rear deck has a BBQ for sizzling the snags, two XL eskies, and plates, cups, cutlery, bowls and platters for your group. Inside, a galley has a fridge and sink, and there’s a toilet. Huge rear swim steps give you easy water access, and an XL Lilypad is included. She fits up to 33 guests, and your captain and crew handle the details, so you just turn up and enjoy the harbour.

Good to know: Charters run 4 to 6 hours, any time between 9am and 1am, all year round.

Why choose Sea Monkey Sailing

Built for a Full Summer Setup

Step onboard and you’re in the tropics. Curious George has artificial grass underfoot, green furnishings and ivy, and a 5.5-metre beam with a wide-open deck that gives you room to dance, lounge and spread out the BBQ without feeling crowded.

Sound That Gets the Party Moving

Mixer amplifier, 6 3 way speakers, 15" powered subwoofer, suit a DJ set or a playlist from your phone. Bring your DJ decks at no extra charge, and the speakers are already on board.

Water Toys for the Whole Group

Huge rear swim steps make it easy to get in and out of the water, and the 6m Bullfrog XL Lilypad and SUP are included. It’s the perfect break between dancing and drinks.

Crew That Looks After You

Our crew are there to make the day effortless, from the moment you board to the last wave goodbye. They know the harbour, they know how to host, and they’re there to keep your group safe and happy.

Ready for Sydney’s Weather

Sydney summers can change fast, so we plan every charter around it. A large rain cover over the open deck keeps the party going on showery days, and we’ll keep you informed if anything affects your booking.

Bigger groups, bigger party. For larger celebrations, Curious George can be booked alongside our other boats. Ask us about combined charters.
