Constellation is the 400-guest catamaran NYE option at the value end of the large-capacity tier — King Street Wharf departure, mid-pricing for the scale, BYO welcomed. The boat for big corporate or community NYE events that need scale without the premium-tier price.
Constellation NYE 2026/27
Constellation operates in the same 400-guest capacity bracket as Seadeck and Cadman but at a different price point — it’s the value play for large NYE functions that need room without the flagship-tier outlay. King Street Wharf departure gives you the prime fireworks-viewing precinct from boarding. Catamaran format means wraparound 360 deck access — at 400 guests, that matters more than on smaller boats because nobody wants to be the people who couldn’t see the midnight show. BYO welcomed at 400-guest scale is genuinely unusual; most operators at this capacity lock you into a catering package.
