CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

What other's had to say about seven star.

Great Call! On short notice, the day prior, our leadership team were doing a 2-day business planning session in the offices and while looking through the window at the glorious Sydney harbour on a stunning day, it was suggested we should be out there. We made the call to All Occasion Cruises, and the next day we were on an evening cruise on the Seven Star with dinner and drinks. What a spectacular cruise of Sydney Harbour. They even catered for some very specific dietary requirements. Superb service, beautiful luxury boat, and amazing food. We felt like celebrities living the high life. What a great experience!

Thank you, All Occasion Cruises.

I booked All Occasion Cruises for the third time to host my company Christmas party! My guests absolutely love going on board The Seven Star - the team are so easy to deal with and very accommodating to all of my requests. I'll definitely continue to rebook!

Hi Rosie The day was a great success and everyone thoroughly enjoyed it thanks! The staff were excellent and so helpful, the food was lovely and plentiful, DJ excellent, Charlie the barman was fantastic also!! Thanks so much to you and Emily for all your help.

We took the 3 hour tour and saw soooo many sites. We would have easily paid a lot more for this tour for the exceptional service and experience we received.

I had a fantastic afternoon with Ellie and Zain. They gave a us lovely personalised tour. The highlight was being able to step of the boat onto a secluded beach that was only accessible by boat, for a while we were the only ones on the beach. The tea and cake provided was extra nice touch too.

My husband and I and our two daughters, ages 10 and 12, really enjoyed our afternoon tour of Sydney Harbor with SHBT! It was a great introduction to all of the Sydney Harbor sights, a tour of some of the bays (homes of the rich and famous and a naval base), and a few beach stops at beautiful national park beaches.

We had a great 3 hour boat trip with the brand new Axopar boat named Spectre. A beautiful, fast and very comfortable boat. Perfect for 8 people. The crew was very professional and serviceminded. Great service also from the office. I highly recommend this company.

The best time i’ve ever had in Sydney. I got a chance to learn more about the Australian history. Overall my experience was phenomenal

Yachts & Boats For Hire in Sydney Harbour

We offer a wide range of handpicked luxury charter yachts and boats readily available for hire in Sydney. Sydney Harbour is an aquatic playground for Sydneysiders and is home to one of the world’s most beautiful and natural harbours. It’s best known for its harbour-front Sydney Opera House, the iconic Harbour Bridge, Darling Harbour and the Circular Quay port. Chapman is the most experienced and premier yacht charter company Sydney, Australia has to offer in this dream destination.

With an array of secluded hidden beaches and bushland, the crystal-clear waters of Sydney are a huge attraction to tourists and locals alike. And what better way to take in all the harbour has to offer than onboard a luxury boat.

People from all over the world flock to Sydney harbour to experience world-class restaurants, designer boutiques and indulgent spas— but most of all to enjoy the Harbour, which seems to have it all. Many choose to spend a day onboard a yacht to enjoy swimming, the sun, and the array of water activities before anchoring up by Taronga Zoo in Athol Bay for stunning views back across Sydney, the Opera House, and Harbour Bridge. If you are looking for an extended experience, one of our superyachts can welcome you and your family onboard for a 5 day adventure.

Your itinerary will include cruising the iconic waterways of Sydney all the way up to Palm Beach and the Pittwater region, where you can discover some of the best anchorages on the east coast. It’s the most dreamlike yachting experience Sydney has to offer— and it can be yours with Chapman by your side.

From Sea to Land,

Once ashore, discover more about the area on one of the various walks that take in stunning Sydney landmarks. One of the world’s best city walks is from Woolloomooloo to Barangaroo, stopping at Mrs Macquaries Chair for a perfect postcard picture.

Each New Year’s Eve, Sydney Harbour puts on a magical display as hundreds of fireworks soar off the Sydney Harbour Bridge. The celebratory atmosphere makes it the perfect way to ring in the new year. Seeing the fireworks from a yacht will ensure you get up close and personal and have the best view in the city.

When it comes to weather, Sydney is quite predictable. The warmer months are commonly from November to February which is when the Harbour is most alive and buzzing with activity.

The cooler months are March to August. Even if you are visiting in the cooler months, make sure to pack swimwear, as it is common to enjoy warm, sunny days during winter.

Video shows moments before superyacht went down in storm off Sicily

Newly released video captures a luxury superyacht being battered by a violent storm before it suddenly sank off Sicily with 22 people aboard Monday.

The grainy images obtained by NBC News and other outlets were recorded on closed-circuit television not far from where the Bayesian was anchored, about a half-mile from the port of Porticello, on Sicily’s northern coast .

The yacht's 250-foot mast, illuminated with lights and lashed by the storm, appears to bend to one side before it finally disappears and is replaced by darkness.

The speed with which a yacht built to handle the roughest seas capsized stunned maritime experts.  

“I can’t remember the last time I read about a vessel going down quickly like that, you know, completely capsizing and going down that quickly, a vessel of that nature, a yacht of that size,” said Stephen Richter of SAR Marine Consulting.

British tech tycoon Mike Lynch and five of the 22 other people who were aboard the 184-foot vessel remain unaccounted for and are believed to be trapped in the Bayesian’s hull, nearly 170 feet underwater.

Officials confirmed Monday that at least one person, the ship’s cook, had died.  

Superyachts like the Bayesian, which had been available for charters at a rate of $215,000 a week, are designed to stay afloat even as they are taking on water to give the people aboard a chance to escape, Richter said. 

“Boats of this size, they’re taking passengers on an excursion or a holiday,” Richter said. “They are not going to put them in situations where it may be dangerous or it may be uncomfortable, so this storm that popped up was obviously an anomaly. These vessels that carry passengers, they’re typically very well-maintained, very well-appointed.”

Built by Italian shipbuilder Perini Navi in 2008, the U.K.-registered Bayesian could carry 12 guests and a crew of up to 10, according to online specialist yacht sites. Its nearly 250-foot mast is the tallest aluminum sailing mast in the world, according to CharterWorld Luxury Yacht Charters. 

On Tuesday, Italian rescue workers resumed the search for Lynch and the five other passengers still missing: Lynch’s 18-year-old daughter, Hannah; Morgan Stanley International Chairman Jonathan Bloomer and his wife; and Clifford Chance lawyer Chris Morvillo and his wife.

“The fear is that the bodies got trapped inside the vessel,” Salvatore Cocina, the head of civil protection in Sicily, told Reuters .

The Bayesian is owned by a firm linked to Lynch’s wife, Angela Bacares, who was one of the 15 people rescued Monday after it capsized.

“It’s extremely rare for a boat of this size to sink,” Richter said.

What’s not rare is the kind of storm that sank it , said Simon Boxall, senior lecturer in oceanography at Britain’s University of Southampton.

“People assume the Mediterranean is this rather calm and passive place that never gets storms and always blue skies,” Boxall said. “In fact, you get some quite horrendous storms that are not uncommon at this time of year.”

The president of Italy’s meteorological society has said Monday’s violent storm may have involved a waterspout, essentially a tornado over water, or a downburst, which occurs more frequently but doesn’t involve the rotation of the air.

Luca Mercalli, president of the Italian Meteorology Society, also said recent temperatures may have been a factor. 

“The sea surface temperature around Sicily was around 30 degrees Celsius [86 Fahrenheit], which is almost 3 degrees more than normal,” Mercalli told Reuters. “This creates an enormous source of energy that contributes to these storms.”

The Mediterranean sailing vacation was designed to be a celebration for Lynch, who two months ago was acquitted by a San Francisco jury of fraud charges stemming from the 2011 sale of his software company Autonomy to Hewlett-Packard for $11 billion.

Prosecutors alleged that Lynch, dubbed “Britain’s Bill Gates,” and Autonomy’s vice president for finance, Stephen Chamberlain, had padded the firm’s finances ahead of the sale. Lynch’s lawyers argued that HP was so eager to acquire Autonomy that it failed to adequately check the books .

Lynch had taken Morvill, who was one of his defense attorneys, on the luxury trip. 

Chamberlain was not on the Bayesian.

In what appears to be a tragic coincidence, a car struck and killed Chamberlain on Saturday as he was jogging in a village about 68 miles north of London, local police said.

“Steve fought successfully to clear his good name at trial earlier this year, and his good name now lives on through his wonderful family,” Chamberlain’s lawyer, Gary Lincenberg, said in a statement .

Though Robert dived head first, he ended up hitting the water on his back.

“He’s so crazy. Oh my God. Oh my God. Are you alright?” Drena, 56, asked her father once he resurfaced in the water.

The dad of seven replied, “I’m OK.”

Drena then told Robert he was “sick” and “crazy” for the epic leap.

The actress asked a yacht employee how many feet her father jumped from, to which they responded, “36 feet.”

Drena’s comments section was flooded with birthday wishes for the legendary actor.

“HBD to 1 of 1, New York’s finest.🏛️🥂,” wrote one user.

“Happy Birthday To The Best Actor In The World❤️,” added another.

“A Happy Birthday to the best actor of all Time, for his 81st Birthday. And many more. From a very big fan ❤️❤️❤️❤️,” said as third person.

“Happy birthday to the OG!!!!! May we all look this good at this age! Godless,” said a fourth fan.

In the Instagram carousel, Drena, whom Robert adopted during his marriage to Diahnne Abbott, shared a throwback photo of her late son, Leandro, and the “Irishman” star.

In July 2023, Drena announced that her son, whom she shared with graffiti artist Carlos Rodriguez, had died at age 19.

Leandro passed away from a “toxic” combination of illicit drugs , the New York City Medical Examiner told Page Six last August.

Following the news of his grandson’s death, Robert released a statement , saying he was “deeply distressed.”
