Cheeky Monkey is a 12-metre Noosa Cat catamaran. She's stable and safe for groups of all ages, and fitted out for a party. You get wide open decks, a jungle-themed fit-out with ivy and canopy lighting that syncs to your music, and a nightclub-grade PA with Bluetooth. Bring your DJ decks and the speakers are already on board. Captain and crew are included, so you just turn up and enjoy the harbour.

Good to know: Charters run 4 to 6 hours, any time between 9am and 1am, all year round.

Why choose Sea Monkey Sailing

Built for a Full Summer Setup

Step onboard and you’re in the jungle. Cheeky Monkey is kitted out for a complete summer celebration, with a full grass floor underfoot, a tropical canopy stretching across the whole ceiling, lush plants, and wicker seating for the whole crew. It’s the kind of space that makes guests want to stay all afternoon.

Sound That Gets the Party Moving

Six speakers wrapped around the boat, backed by a subwoofer, bring the dance floor to life. Plug in your playlist or bring your DJ decks, and the whole harbour can hear the party.

Water Toys for the Whole Group

Head off the back onto the 6-metre Lilypad floating platform, or grab the stand-up paddleboard for a few quiet laps of the harbour. It’s the perfect break between dancing and drinks.

Crew That Looks After You

Our crew are there to make the day effortless, from the moment you board to the last wave goodbye. They know the harbour, they know how to host, and they’re there to keep your group safe and happy.

Ready for Sydney’s Weather

Sydney summers can change fast, so we plan every charter around it. Our boats are prepared for changing conditions, and we’ll keep you informed if anything affects your booking.

The boat was absolutely amazing, perfect for our hens party! It came decorated with vines and cushions so we didn’t need to do much to add to the vibe. Speakers were fantastic and the crew were welcoming and lovely. Couldn’t have asked for a better day
