The R. Tucker Thompson has a special place in the hearts of the Northland community. We love to host events that enable locals to get on board their ship.
Ahoy young sailors! Let your inner pirate go wild on a 2-hour sail adventure in Whangārei Harbour on board the iconic R. Tucker Thompson. Youngsters (and their parents) get to dress up as pirates and enjoy a special pirate sailing on board Northland’s own tall ship.
All children must be accompanied by an adult. Any profits from this event support our youth programme.
In the morning we be pirates…but come afternoon it’s time to take a breath and relax for a Mothering Sunday sail in Whangārei Harbour.
Bring your whānau for an afternoon on the water. Climb the rigging, set the sails or sit back and relax.
Cash bar available to ensure refreshment for all. Any profits from this event support our youth programme.
Join us for a late autumn daysail – a surprise one-off to coincide with the final cruise ship of the season. All the usual daysail offerings, with swimming for the brave!
Only 15 spaces available to public, so book early.
Cash bar available to ensure refreshment for all.
