About this Event
Boxing Day marks one of the highlights of the sailing calendar – the start of the Sydney-Hobart yacht race. It's becoming somewhat of a tradition for some not making the voyage south to see the start from the deck of Tall Ship James Craig.
This year marks the 77th anniversary of the annual Sydney to Hobart yacht race! Tall Ship, 1874 Barque James Craig, will proceed to sea off Sydney Heads prior to the race start to take up the best vantage point possible, (subject to conditions) to watch the yachts sail by down the coast. After the race fleet has passed, James Craig will continue her normal day sail at sea, time permitting.
Your ticket includes morning tea with platters of banana bread and friand. Lunch consists of a lunch box of grilled chicken, fresh herb mayo lettuce/leg ham, tomato & rocket; Dijon mustard roll, corn cake with tomato relish, Mediterranean Rossini pasta salad, Chocolate fudge slice, and grapes (special diets catered for on request). Afternoon tea will be cheese crackers, crudités dip, and mixed nuts. Tea/coffee are available throughout the day and there is a licensed bar on board.
