The call is out to the Whitsunday community to enter the raffle for a four-night, self-skippered ‘bareboat’ charter, and help keep the Great Barrier Reef Festival afloat.
For the price of just $25 a ticket and with all proceeds donated to the event – ensuring it remains free, fun, and accessible for all – one lucky winner and up to nine shipmates will get to set sail on the trip of a lifetime around the Whitsunday Islands, aboard the luxe Leopard 40 Catamaran, Regina Whitsundays.
Valued at over $5,000, and with the boat far from being ‘bare’, the prize includes not only the four-day, four-night private charter itself, but additional snorkelling gear, stand-up paddle boards, Starlink WIFI, and all safety and navigation equipment supplied.
As an incentive to buy more than one raffle ticket, three will be discounted to $60, with five available for $100.
The raffle will be drawn on Sunday, August 3, at the 2025 Great Barrier Reef Festival closing event.
