Our Boat

Meet ‘Ground Control’, our purpose built, 7.3m Zodiac Rigid Hull Inflatable Boat. By purpose built, we mean that our boat is the ultimate freediving, snorkelling and island exploration vessel. With self-draining bungs, high stability and the ability for the boat to still float and motor forward even after it has been swamped by water, it's no wonder many commercial, rescue and military operations use the Zodiac RIB boats.

Our boat can take up to 8 passengers and 2 crew (10 persons in total) making it the perfect size for freediving/snorkelling trips, small groups and private charters.

Our vessel has a beach loading ladder and stairs at the front, making it very safe and easy to load/unload passengers and their gear on any protected beaches or island coves around Port Stephens. This means our vessel is not confined to pick passengers up at a marina (and passengers do not have to pay for marina parking).
