Hey Hello Daniel !
Mate where do we start!!!!!
Hi Daniel
We all had an absolute amazing time on the cruise- the boat was perfect for our group- very luxurious, we loved the fact we were all together on the one floor, and the indoor/outdoor aspect with large deck was great. The staff and Captain were all so welcoming and accommodating- please pass on our big thanks to them. The food was also devine. All in all, everything was great and we all had a blast!
Thanks for your help with organising this and ensuring all went smoothly.
Kind regards

Where do I begin, I would like to extend my thanks and appreciation for all your help in organising THE BEST EVENT we’ve had. Our Christmas party was incredible & unforgettable!!!!!
The Captain was extremely accommodating and not to mention his 6 star staff with their hospitality on the night. Please extend a massive thankyou to Anne-Marie, Rosie, Ken and the staff- They were superb in every way. Their service was flawless and impeccable. The Chefs canapes were delicious and made to perfection, their presentation was on point- everyone loved them!
We cannot wait to have another event with you and we will definitely be requesting the same crew (only the best).
Thank You again Daniel!
Have a wonderful day
Thanks so much for this Daniel.
The event was a great success and everyone had such a lovely time. The catering and boat were amazing and the staff were such a pleasure to deal with. Captain Glenn even dropped a customer bag left onboard to our office the next morning, which was so lovely of him.
Thanks for making it such a pleasure to arrange too.
Warm regards

Wanderlust – NYE December 2021
“Hi Daniel,
We had an excellent day, could not fault a single thing!
I have to say the crew were outstanding, the captain Sam was very accommodating to all our requests, food and drink service was super high quality. Everyone was so appreciative of their great service. Our clients that we had onboard are ‘wined and dined’ very often, and many have said it was the best event they’ve attended.
Please pass on my gratitude to Sam and all of his team for a wonderful day, and thank you to you for handling all of my questions beforehand.
Hopefully we can find a reason to hold a similar event next year so we can return ? will certainly be recommending you guys to others in our business for future memorable events.

Hi Daniel,
Happy 2021!! I would like to just say thank you so much for the past few months, with the smooth process and the constant clarifications until the last day.
The Night was magical, to say the least for everyone and it really came down to your planning and the adjustments you kept making for us.
Thank you so much for the service that you have provided and hopefully, we can keep in touch if we needed another charter!!

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
Daniel,
It has been a pretty bloody awful year in terms of COVID with our team having to work remotely from home, so the harbour cruise on Oscar II was totally awesome giving us a chance to reconnect and bond. A wonderful evening with an amazing crew going above and beyond to provide top notch service and gourmet catering to tantalise the taste buds. Oh and the boat was breath taking. A real treat. Thank you, Daniel, for this memorable experience we will cherish.
Kind Regards

We were extremely happy with the boat, service and staff. All our group are still raving about what a great and day and night we had especially the ‘boat’.
The boat is a terrific size and fitted out in a very pleasant fit out/decor. The staff and owner were accommodating to our music, journey and took photos for us all.
We would do all it again. The catering was also very good and everyone was impressed.
Thanks again for all the correspondence prior as well it was an ease in booking etc

We had a blast on Friday! The Ariston and her crew were absolutely amazing – they were a very big contributor to our fun atmosphere. Everything was perfect from begin to end, staff were so friendly and professional. The food was delicious, and the beverage selection was spot on.

Dear Rai,
Just wanted to extend my gratitude to you for coordinating the Sydney Harbour cruise for our investor event a few weeks back (and apologies for the late note!) Everything went seamlessly; it couldn’t have been better!! I am particularly grateful that you were able to help source sound equipment for the performers, which I recognize is not something you typically do. Thanks so much for going above and beyond!
I look forward to staying in touch and will of course reach out should we be holding a similar event in the future.
Thanks again!

Enigma – November 2017
Dear Daniel,
Thanks very much and we had a fantastic time.
The quality of the vessel was excellent and very enjoyable for all on board. I must add that the Captain and his support crew were very accommodating and were attentive with serving and making sure we had a great time.
Most of my guests were from interstate so the experience was memorable.
Please pass on my thanks to the crew and will definitely come back to you when I next need to be on the water.

Obsession – October 2017
Hi Daniel,
We all had a great time, the day ran smoothly and even the weather turned out to be nice!
The staff on the day were all amazing, all food was brought out in a timely manner and communication throughout the day was excellent between all the crew. Claudia was so lovely, she asked for my confirmation first before any decisions were made (when to dock, what time for speeches etc).
Thank you for all your assistance throughout the planning process, you remained in contact and ensured all our needs were accommodated to. There was talk of another cruise once we hit 200 stores so I will be in touch then!
Thank you again.

Just wanted to say a huge thank you for all your fantastic organisational skills. From the water taxi pick up to arriving in time for our seaplane flight. Lunch was absolutely sensational and then our limo back home. Everything worked perfectly, except that we were back a little late, not that we minded.
My husband had an absolutely wonderful day. He’s put it right up there in his favourite things we’ve done.
Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou.

Birchgrove – December 2016
“We all agree that Australia is amazing but we think the highlight of the trip was the boat cruise. The crew was the best, two great guys. We’re talking about coming back with all of our children. The last trip was just me & my sons. The girls are jealous now. I cannot tell you how great & how much fun the boat tour was. We will hope to do it again with all of us. Dave & Frank were the best. Thanks again”

waterways I chose to hire Seduced a 50ft cruiser, we found the day was well
organised very informative and the food was great I found Daniel from Sydney
Harbour Specialists was so helpful and went out of his way to make this
special day for my husband very memorable indeed, I also got Daniel to
arrange a second day showing us all the hidden secrets of the northern beach
areas of Sydney which also was arranged very well had lunch at Burnt Orange
which was recommend by Daniel, what a glorious location and wonderful meal
we had, our driver showed us many interesting locations and it was very
evident he enjoyed his work as he made for a second memorable day I would
not hesitate to recommend Sydney Harbour Specialist and hope we will be

Daniel for a job well done.”

Seaduced – December 2015
“The cruise was absolutely fantastic and we were blessed with the weather. I thought for a moment we were a little unlucky as the clouds rolled over, and then the sunshine came back out. My sister said she couldn’t have imagined her day any different. Patrick and Archie were amazing and made all the guests feel extremely comfortable and which only added to the pleasure of the day.
One of the girls on board has also decided for her birthday she wants to do exactly what we have done (sail around the harbour) so I will pass your details on to her.
Everyone had a fantastic time and I have received nothing but compliments which must be passed onto Patrick and Archie.
I will not hesitate to recommend your company and in particular the OzCat for anyone thinking of doing a similar thing to what we did over the weekend.
Thank you again for all that you have done for me over the past few months your company has definitely made this a memorable experience for not only the guests on board but my sister. All I wanted was a perfect day for her and it appears I have achieved this so thank you.
Kind regards,
Alicia”

“Yes, thank you the boat was magnificent and the cruise in all was fantastic. Even though the weather could have been better, Adrian made the day for us. He was just fabulous. I think if we did it again, I would search out what boat he was on so we could have him as skipper again.
Thanks again for a great afternoon.

“This is just a short note to let you know that our group had a fantastic time on Coast last Friday night.
We have received a lot of great feedback on the experience and the evening.
People really enjoyed the boat, the food and hospitality. (I wish that I could have stayed for the entire evening!)
Team members have commented to me that Kate and the crew were very warm and welcoming, and made people feel right at home (including a birthday girl!). The food received great reviews (prawn and chorizo skewers a big hit), and I understand that the amount of food was perfect and well-paced (right down to the curry at the end). It sounds like the beverage package also worked out well!
People were also very appreciative of the 2nd pick up at 7pm.
So thanks very much again for hosting a great night for us. There isn’t anything which we would have done differently for that evening.”
