The Yacht Broomstick was built in South Africa to win the Cape Town to Rio Yacht Race. From there she went on to compete in many of the world's most famous blue water events including the Sydney to Hobart. As a true Maxi, she is big, comfortable and very fast. She finished racing in 2000 and was converted to charter in 2001 - but beware, her racing spirit still remains!

The Cruise: Broomstick and her multi award winning crew will take you on an unforgettable 2 day 2 night sailing adventure throughout the Whitsunday Islands. You can participate in all activities such as diving, snorkelling, bushwalking and helping to sail a true Maxi or simply sit back and just take it all in - the choice is yours.
