THE END OF AN ERA… AND THE START OF SOMETHING BIGGER.

Five years. Thousands of kilometres. Countless adventures.

Our original pontoon boat The Black Pearl has been a big part of Salty Life 1770, and this Sunday she’ll finish her final day of service before she heads down to the Murray River to live out her days in the fresh water with another company.

But while one chapter closes…

The next one has already arrived.

⚓ THE BLACK PEARL II ⚓

Longer. Wider. Accessible.
Big front and rear decks.
Extra-plush seating.
12-person capacity.
Triple hulls for extra buoyancy.

And don’t worry — the things you love about Salty Life aren’t changing.
Same great service. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Same catering.
Same extras.
Same price
Just more room to enjoy the 1770 on the water. 🌴🌊

Next week we’ll be busy fitting her out and getting everything ready for her launch next weekend.

Pontoon hire will be paused next week while we get The BP2 ready — but our Runabout 'Felix' hire continues as normal, and bookings for Black Pearl 2 are now open.

And that leaves just one question…

WHO’S GOING TO BE THE FIRST? 👀

First onboard.
First adventure.
First Fish.
First family day out.

Your next Salty Life adventure is about to get a whole lot bigger. 🌊

The Black Pearl II is nearly finished and will be ready to sail in September.

At Salty Life 1770 boat hire, every adventure is different. Some days it's dolphins, turtles and secluded beaches... and some days Mother Nature delivers a spectacular double rainbow. 🌈🌈
This incredible photo was captured yesterday by one of our guests aboard our runabout Felix. Thanks for sharing such a special moment with us!
