The Floating Bear is perfect for you if you're a keen sailor. She's a well-balanced boat and handles beautifully whether under sail or power.

She has two wheels so when you're at the helm you can stay on the windward side and enjoy great visibility under sail.

And there's even the added bonus of an electric winch for the main halyard and sheet.

If you're more interested in sitting back while others take charge you'll love spacious cockpit.

There's enough room for the whole family to relax underway and enjoy the stunning Pittwater views.

On Deck

Beneteau Oceanis 40,yacht charter

The Floating Bear is a Beneteau Oceanis 40 built in 2010.

She's 12.2m long, with a beam of 3.95m and she draws 1.95m.

Your skipper will appreciate the easy to read wind and depth instruments and GPS and the electric windlass makes anchoring a breeze.

The 2 steering wheels give you a great Pittwater sailing experience and the curved teak foot-wells mean you can balance easily and stay in control when the Bear heels.

And with no centre wheel, the cockpit is open and spacious to walk through when you are at anchor. The long swim ladder makes getting back on board after a dip a breeze.

And of course there's the added luxury of a hot and cold deck shower.

Bear's cockpit is a large, bright and spacious area.

To protect you from the strong Australian sun there's a spray dodger, link cloth and bimini.

This means you can have the whole area fully shaded while you are under sail or anchor. Or you can remove link cloth and catch a few rays.

When you stop sailing you can open out the large table. It's perfect for lunches at anchor or pre-dinner drinks and snacks. The gas fired barbeque is 48cm x 28cm - plenty big enough to cook for the whole family.

Our Beneteau Oceanis 40 comes with a rigid Walker Bay tender with oars and outboard motor - perfect for exploring Pittwater's beautiful bays and beaches.

'Thank you Smart Boating for a wonderful yacht charter experience.

We had a fantastic time and everything worked so well from the airport transfer, your support, the yacht and of course the weather!

All in all a great week and we look forward to coming back some time in the future.

We were very satisfied and everything on the yacht worked so well - it is a credit to the owners and to your management service.
