About Luxury Crewed Motor Yacht PRINCESS ILUKA

Princess Iluka is a Ray Kemp motor yacht built in 1979 and comprehensively restored to exacting standards, completing a nine-year restoration in 2009. A 2023 refit ensures she remains the benchmark for crewed charters across Australia's coastline. Her hull, crafted from 750-year-old Huon Pine timber harvested from Tasmanian forests over three decades ago, combines heritage craftsmanship with contemporary comfort. Interiors feature hand-made Australian timberwork throughout the cabins and saloon, creating warmth and understated opulence.

The yacht accommodates 10 guests across 5 cabins, each with ensuite facilities. The master stateroom spans the full beam and features a spa bath, lounge, king bed, and generous sea-view windows. The VIP stateroom, guest double, twin, and children's bunk cabin offer flexible configuration for families and groups seeking intimate, bespoke service.

A five-strong crew led by Captain Mark delivers refined hospitality throughout your charter. The onboard chef prepares à la carte dining from a galley equipped for five-star menus, served in the formal dining room or alfresco on the upper aft deck. Three generous decks including a top sun deck with generous seating provide multiple spaces for relaxation and entertaining.

The Charter Experience

Charter Princess Iluka through Sydney, Hamilton Island, and the Whitsundays with a dedicated professional crew attending to every detail. Days unfold between protected anchorages, pristine reef systems, and hidden islands. The yacht's comprehensive water sports collection—including jet skis, SUPs, kayaks, towables, and fishing equipment—enables seamless transition between days of exploration and poolside repose. Wellness amenities including yoga mats, TRX equipment, and golf driving setup cater to active guests. Evenings feature fine dining prepared fresh to your preference, whether formal or casual, paired with selected wines and spirits. Australia's remote island anchorages become your private retreat.

Suggested Itinerary

A week-long itinerary typically begins in Sydney or Hamilton Island, progressing through the Great Barrier Reef's sheltered anchorages and the Whitsundays' white-sand beaches. Mornings may include snorkelling at pristine reefs equipped with stinger suits and reef walkers, afternoon jet-skiing or wakeboarding, and evenings anchored in secluded bays with chef-prepared dining under the stars. Flexibility allows for fishing expeditions, golf outings from the yacht's practice tee, or leisurely days devoted entirely to spa treatments and wellness pursuits onboard.
