Sydney Harbour Cruise on a historic steam yacht - Ena
Join us for a cruise around Sydney Harbour on our restored Edwardian steam yacht Ena.
Join us for a leisurely two-hour cruise on Sydney Harbour on our beautifully restored Edwardian steam yacht Ena.
SY Ena was designed by Sydney naval architect Walter Reeks and built by WM Ford Boatbuilders in 1900, just across from the museum in Berrys Bay, North Sydney. Originally built for local banker and yacht racing enthusiast Thomas Dibbs, it was named after his wife Tryphena, it was used on Sydney Harbour for government functions, and weekend entertaining. Shipwright Nick Masterman fully restored the Ena in 1987 as close as possible to the yacht’s original specifications as a pleasure yacht. In 2017 the Ena was generously donated to the museum by John and Jacqui Mullen.
Includes light refreshments.
This special cruise is for 20 people only.
Price: $70 Museum Members / $100 Non Members
