About this space

A historic 158-foot tall ship defined by towering masts and expansive open wooden decks that deliver an authentic sailing-ship character.

Design: The wood-planked decks, varnished railings and dense rigging create an authentic 19th-century sailing appearance. The deck plan is long and narrow, with benches and low-profile cabins that keep sightlines open and daylight abundant.

Features: An onboard bar provides drinks service while a professional crew handles navigation, safety and ship operations. Wi‑Fi, step-free boarding, wheelchair-accessible routes and accessible toilets are provided for practical accessibility and connectivity. A compact sheltered cabin area offers covered standing space and storage for equipment.

Ideal for: Groups looking for an informal, mobile social gathering on the water where guests can move around, mingle and enjoy relaxed standing or bench-seated socialising.

What sets it apart: Hands-on sailing: guests are invited to take part in raising the sails for a truly interactive, authentic tall-ship experience.

What guests say: The space has a roomy, well-maintained deck and an unhurried, cinematic quality at sunset. The atmosphere is interactive and welcoming.
