About this charter

Refitted in Picton in 2014, Tarquin is a 20-metre custom motor yacht designed for intimate journeys through the Marlborough Sounds and Abel Tasman National Park. With a crew of three catering to just six guests, the experience focuses on relaxed comfort, local gastronomy, and unhurried coastal discovery. Living spaces span a light-filled main deck saloon, a foredeck observation platform, and an elevated flybridge tailored for alfresco dining against sound-side vistas. Below deck, three en-suite cabins provide serene accommodations, including a full-beam master stateroom set aft. Itineraries balance quiet anchorages with shore excursions, from walking sections of the Queen Charlotte Track to visiting remote coastal lodges like Furneaux Lodge and Bay of Many Coves. Charters include lodge-style dining featuring fresh local seafood, regional wines, and direct access to swimming, fishing, and kayaking.
