Description | Features
Originally launched in 2001 as a commercial dive boat operating in Queensland, Rum Runner enjoyed several
successful seasons in Cape Tribulation before relocating to Sydney Harbour in 2011. Since then, she has been
operating continuously in the thriving Sydney charter industry, catering to private functions, corporate events,
and harbour cruises.
Operating under AMSA Survey Class 1D (Passenger Vessel – Partially Smooth Waters), Rum Runner is licensed to carry 47 passengers plus 3 crew, making her an ideal platform for a wide range of commercial charter
operations.
The business benefits from an established online presence through www.rumrunner.com.au and receives regular bookings via numerous charter brokerage and consolidator businesses. A significant advantage for the
new owner is an existing long-term contract that guarantees bookings every Saturday from 10:30 am to 4:00 pm throughout the summer season (1 November to 30 March) for the next two years. This provides a reliable
and predictable revenue stream before any additional marketing or charter bookings.
Comprehensive financial records are available to genuinely interested and appropriately qualified purchasers. Rum Runner is currently berthed in Annandale, with the marina operator open to continuing the existing
berthing arrangement for the new owner.
Offered for sale by her original owner after 25 years, this represents a rare opportunity to acquire a wellestablished commercial charter vessel together with a proven, profitable business operating in one of
Australia’s premier boating destinations.

“Many thanks to Jason Brosnahan at Multihull Central in Opua New Zealand. Because of Covid lockdowns I pretty much had to purchase Emocean sight unseen in New Zealand and then have her transported to Australia. Jason made what could have been a very stressful experience a whole lot easier by putting me in touch with the right people and by providing many hours of honest, professional and enthusiastic support.
A big thanks as well to Chris Henry at Multihull Central in Australia who assisted us in getting both into and out of Brisbane Harbour. My only regret is that I was unable to share with Jason the bottle of French Champagne that I found in the fridge. Regards Andrew Bateman”

I recently took delivery of my beautiful new Seawind 1260 “Pirate Pete” in Brisbane before sailing it up to the Whitsundays for charter. I couldn’t have done it without the help of the incomparable sail master “Brett Hodder” from Multihull Central who guided us through the passage and taught us the ropes (I mean sheets). The boat itself sailed effortlessly through the ocean day and night with its crew in total comfort. I couldn’t be happier with the boat and service from Multihull Central and would recommend a Seawind 1260 to anyone wanting a true sailing boat that doesn’t compromise on comfort or sailability, combining these 2 key elements in the ultimate package. “Pirate Pete” is now available for bareboat charter in the Whitsundays through “Cumberland Charter Yachts” if you’d like to “try before you buy” and will also be available on Sydney Harbour from December to March through “Charterboat Central”. Thanks again and big thumbs up to Multihull Central.

In July 2016 I received my new Seawind 1160 Lite. The team at Multihull Central did an impressive job in preparing the catamaran for the handover. It was in all parts ready to set sail and beautifully prepared for us. The introduction was extremely competent and the handing over was very enjoyable and a great experience. The few minor issues that emerged were immediately resolved as they became visible. The professional and highly experienced handing over contributed greatly to the pleasure we have been getting from sailing our new Seawind catamaran.

Seawind 1160 Resort: First in Sydney Harbour! After some initial challenges with the delivery date of our Seawind 1160 Resort, we finally received delivery on November 21st 2016. The commissioning team at Multihull Central couldn’t have worked harder for us to make sure we made our charter deadlines for December 1st. Considering the boat only arrived at Multihull Central on November 23rd, it was amazing to have it up and running for charter on December 2nd 2016. Thank you Brent, Christine & John for all your help!

To Brent and the team, I wanted to thank you for your assistance with selling my Outremer 51. I’m glad we had you as a trusted agent to work with. I was shocked at how quickly we sold and delighted with the result, in fact I struggle to imagine a better outcome.
