Sailing charter company
About
Family-run private charters on the sailing catamaran Summer Breeze from the Royal SA Yacht Squadron at Outer Harbor, cruising the Port River or Adelaide's northern beaches.
Service area: Port River and Adelaide's northern beaches, Gulf St Vincent
Viking Yacht Charters is a family business that has operated for more than 20 years from its own berth at the Royal SA Yacht Squadron at Outer Harbor. Private charters head either along Adelaide's northern beaches, weather permitting, or into the calm waters of the Port River, which the operator describes as its most popular route.
All trips are aboard Summer Breeze, a sailing catamaran whose twin hulls keep her level and stable. Charters are tailored for birthdays, hens nights, sunset cruises, romantic cruises for two, memorial services, corporate team building and dolphin cruises, with catering platters available or BYO food and drinks for a fee.
Up to 12 guests plus crew can head to the northern beaches and up to 20 on the Port River. Rates vary between high, mid and low seasons, parking at the Squadron is free, and deposits aren't refunded within 30 days of the cruise, so read the cancellation terms first.

The area suits sheltered day sailing, weekend cruising and short coastal passages; it’s appropriate for trailer sailors, small cruisers and a

Late spring to summer is usually the best time for beginners to start learning to sail in Tasmania because the weather is generally warmer, days are longer and conditions are often more settled. Expect lighter to moderate winds with regular afternoon sea breees in summer, while spring and autumn bring more changeable and sometimes stronger conditions; winter is colder, wetter and typically windier with more fronts and swell.

Treat a southerly buster as a rapid-onset windshift with a strong increase in wind and sea state; prepare the boat and crew by reducing sail area early, securing loose gear, briefing crew on roles, and identifying shelter or an upwind recovery plan. Respond quickly but deliberately — keep boat controllable, avoid last-minute heavy-handed moves, and prioritise mainsail and crew safety over speed.
