Phantom Sailing Bay of Islands
Overview
We only take 10 guests and offer a unique personal experience with 20 years taking guests on our beautiful live-aboard yacht and we still love it!! Private tours are also available on request.
We share our passion for what we do and love meeting people from all over the world and sharing stories from our travels and lifestyle.
We have sailed to many countries on many different boats, so come along and hear the tales of adventures far and wide.
We raised our son on the boat while sailing from the Caribbean and throughout the South Pacific and New Zealand for many years.
Twenty three years of loving and enjoying sailing with new friends from all over the globe!
