About Eastcoast Sailing
For over two decades, Eastcoast Sailing has been helping people celebrate life’s best moments on the most beautiful harbour in the world. From romantic private cruises to corporate events and iconic Sydney celebrations, we specialise in boat hire, private boat charters, catamaran hire, and luxury yacht experiences that are seamless, safe, and truly memorable.
Founded in 2003, Eastcoast Sailing grew from a simple love of the water into one of Sydney’s most trusted and long-standing charter operators. Every cruise we design reflects years of experience, genuine passion for boating, and a deep knowledge of Sydney Harbour’s hidden gems.
Our Story – Built on Experience
and Passion
Kylie Noble, our Sailing Director and CEO, connection to boating began long before Eastcoast Sailing. With over 20 years of hands-on boating and event management experience, she combines her background in education and event organisation with a lifelong enthusiasm for the sea.
Over the years, she has owned and skippered a range of vessels — from a classic 1959 timber flybridge cruiser to a modern sailing catamaran where her family enjoys weekends moored at quiet harbour beaches. This first-hand knowledge gives her an intimate understanding of what makes a Sydney Harbour cruise truly exceptional.
Kylie leads a small, dedicated team of qualified skippers, licensed crew, and experienced event coordinators who share her mission: to deliver personalised, safe, and enjoyable experiences on the water.


More Than Just Boat Hire
At Eastcoast Sailing, we understand that every event is unique. Whether you’re planning a corporate function, a birthday celebration, or a romantic harbour escape, our team handles every detail — from catering and music to itinerary and safety so you can relax and enjoy the day.
We comply with all NSW Maritime Safety and Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) standards. Every vessel we charter is fully insured, regularly maintained, and skippered by experienced, licensed professionals who know Sydney Harbour like locals — because they are.
Our expertise doesn’t stop at the waterline. We’re also trusted by Sydney businesses, event planners, and visitors for our reliability, clear communication, and genuine hospitality — values that have earned us over 185 positive Google reviews and a loyal community of repeat clients.
