THE VESSEL
Watermark is a 17.5m Tony Grainger designed custom high performance sailing catamaran, designed and built in Adelaide to work the challenging waters off South Australia. Watermark is an efficient sailing vessel, easily driven and achieves windspeed sailing in light airs. As the wind builds, she will comfortably maintain her speed under reefed sails and enjoys the benefits of her 9m beam.
Watermark has 4 guest cabins with amenities including the popular deck shower to make your charter a breeze! Continually upgraded over the past 2 years, including paintwork, rigging, and electrical upgrades, Watermark is luxury at its best on the pristine waters off Hervey Bay and beyond.
