Watermark Sailing

Set sail from Hervey Bay aboard Watermark, an exceptional 17.5m Grainger-designed sailing catamaran that transforms the Fraser Coast's extraordinary waterways into your private playground. Whether you're dreaming of a sunset cruise over Hervey Bay's world-renowned amber skies, a day exploring the pristine protected waters adjacent to UNESCO World Heritage-listed K'gari (formerly Fraser Island), or a multi-day expedition south to Lady Musgrave and Lady Elliot Islands on the Southern Great Barrier Reef, Watermark Sailing crafts bespoke experiences around you.

Designed by esteemed Australian yacht designer Tony Grainger, Watermark measures 17.5m long and 9m wide — a high-performance vessel capable of achieving windspeed sailing while delivering the inherent stability that makes guests feel genuinely at ease on the water. Her minimalist yet supremely comfortable design is best described as an impressive juxtaposition of engineering and art.

Every charter is private and fully skippered. Your experienced Master and crew handle all sailing and navigation, leaving you free to let go of everyday life and simply soak up every moment on the water. Aboard, four spacious double guest cabins each feature private amenities, overhead hatches for stargazing, quality linen, and reading lights. A full-size chef's galley, a deck shower, and generous open spaces mean you'll never feel cramped, whether you're out for an afternoon or several nights at sea.

Charter options range from Hervey Bay sunset cruises — where the bay's famously vivid sunsets unfold across the water around you — to day sails through the Great Sandy Marine Park, to longer expeditions reaching the coral cays of Lady Musgrave and Lady Elliot Islands. Arrive at these remarkable reef destinations under sail, and the satisfaction of that arrival stays with you long after you return to shore.

Watermark Sailing is based at Urangan, Hervey Bay, placing you minutes from the Great Sandy Strait Biosphere and the gateway to K'gari. Contact the team to discuss availability, talk through what to expect, and shape a sailing adventure that fits your group — whether that's a romantic escape, a family reconnection, a honeymoon expedition, or simply the thrill of sailing a performance catamaran across some of Queensland's most spectacular waters.
