Escape the hectic life and enjoy your sailing experience on our classical sailing yacht Fearless for timeless charm and authentic sailing.
Explore the Māori Rock Carvings, one of the most extraordinary contemporary carvings in the world. Only view-able from the water, the likeness of Ngātoroirangi towers 14-meters above Lake Taupō.
Powered by the wind, this eco-friendly experience lets you explore nature in its purest form - quiet, clean, and unforgettable.
And when the wind picks up and the yacht heels gracefully into the breeze, guests feel that exhilarating surge of adrenaline - a moment of pure connection as they face fearless, the raw power of the water.
Relax on the large deck space, listen to our experienced skippers and learn about the history of the lake. Give the crew a hand hoisting the sails and take a turn on the wheel or just snuggle in under some blankets.
Take a dip and swim in the crystal-clear waters of the largest freshwater lake in Australasia (weather dependent)

An amazing trip out. We were blessed with sunshine and had a great time. The carvings are stunning but the swim stop was the highlight. Jump off the roof if you're feeling brave
