MV Salute

MV Salute cruises Sydney Harbour with style and room for your crew to kick back easy. This 32-foot sports cruiser welcomes up to 12 guests into a spacious open cockpit and comfy rear deck, where seats hug the breeze and views sparkle. Step inside the fully enclosed cabin for all-weather chats, complete with a practical galley, fridge, two hidden eskies, coffee machine, and microwave to keep drinks cold and snacks hot. A separate bathroom stays handy, while the marlin board and swim ladder invite quick dips in cool coves.

Bluetooth stereo and speakers connect to your phone for tunes that match any mood, from chill sunset vibes to lively beats. The removable drinks table sets up fast in the cockpit for group toasts, and USB chargers keep devices buzzing. At 9.7 meters long with a 3.4-meter beam, it glides steady past icons like the Opera House and Harbour Bridge, handling light chop so steps stay sure. Crew picks up from wharfs like Darling Harbour or Rose Bay, anchoring where you want. For fancier rides, peek at our yacht hire Sydney page.

Every spot fits the day—cockpit for open-air hangs, cabin for cozy breaks, rear deck for panoramas. Three-hour charters start the fun, stretching longer for full adventures, weekdays easier on the wallet. No heels onboard keeps decks safe, and BYO food pairs perfect with the galley's setup. MV Salute blends comfort, sounds, and harbour magic for outings that feel just right.
