Overview
Explore Australia’s East Coast aboard Shore Thing, a 35-metre Lloyds-built superyacht created for private celebrations, corporate entertaining and relaxed escapes at sea. Originally launched in Australia and extensively refitted in 2025, she combines classic character with refreshed interiors, modern technology and generous spaces across three entertaining decks.
Her layout moves easily between open air dining, informal lounging and elegant indoor entertaining. Guests can gather in the main saloon, enjoy meals in one of two alfresco dining areas, relax in the forward-deck jacuzzi or spend the afternoon by the inflatable Ocean Beach Club. A fully equipped galley, sundeck BBQ, Starlink internet, audiovisual system and zero-speed stabilisers support a comfortable experience throughout the charter.
Shore Thing welcomes up to 70 guests for events in smooth waters and up to 41 guests when cruising in partially smooth waters. For overnight escapes, eight guests are accommodated across four private ensuite cabins, supported by a professional crew and personalised onboard service.
Her seasonal program follows Australia’s coastline from Sydney Harbour, Pittwater and the Hawkesbury River to Brisbane, the Gold Coast, the Whitsundays, Cairns, Port Douglas, Lizard Island and the Great Barrier Reef. Each charter can be tailored around the destination, group size, catering preferences and occasion.
