Age Recommendations and Rules
Q. At what age is it safe to take children on a catamaran?
A. 5 years of age is the youngest age we will allow children on the catamarans. If you wish to take young children on a catamaran, we suggest that you discuss this with us on the day. Factors such as sailing experience of the person in charge of the catamaran and the conditions on the day very much influence the advice we give to hirers.
Someone 16 or over MUST be present on each boat in your hire. If you do not have a 16-year-old or older present, unfortunately your booking will be forfeit.
Booking Notes
We are delighted you have decided to spend some time with us an enjoy our beautiful Swan River! To help ensure a great day out we ask you and your guests and family to please be mindful of the following:
Everyone sailing needs to be prepared to get wet! Even in light winds water will sweep across the decks, so you will likely be wet from, at least the waist down. Also be aware that it is always cooler on the water, so wearing a spray jacket or warm top on the catamarans isn't such a bad idea. It's also a good idea to bring a change of clothes, if you are planning on staying at the river after your sail
In the past we have had some issues with theft from cars in the car park behind Funcats, so we strongly recommend you do not leave valuable is your car. If you have nobody ashore to look after your valuables, we would be happy to do so for you.
Please keep it in mind that we often see back-to-back bookings with our catamarans, so we do ask that you and your guests and family are ready to head out on the water at least 15-20 minutes prior to your booked time. This gives us enough time to be able to kit everyone out with life jackets and take you through a lesson (if required) and safety briefing.
We want you to be able to enjoy the full hour, or two, you have booked and this is the best way to ensure this happens.
Thanks for booking with Funcats, we will do all we can to ensure everyone has a wonderful day!
