⚓ SKIPPERS WANTED—TAKE THE HELM OF HISTORY! ⚓
The Original Tea Gardens Ferry is entering an exciting new chapter—and we’re looking for experienced skippers to help us write it.
With the historic Tamboi Queen now back home on the Bay, the future is looking incredibly exciting: more private charters, more dedicated cruises and those wonderfully lazy Sunday afternoons spent cruising the magnificent waters of Port Stephens.
This is more than simply taking the helm. It’s an opportunity to work aboard our much-loved historic vessels, welcome passengers from near and far, share the stories of our waterways and help create experiences they’ll remember long after they step ashore.
We’re looking for professional skippers who:
⚓ Hold Master 24 and MED 3 qualifications
⚓ Have at least five years’ experience
⚓ Provide excellent customer service
⚓ Are confident delivering engaging commentary
⚓ Have strong teamwork skills
⚓ Are reliable, professional and reasonably available over the coming months
If you’re ready to become part of our crew—and part of the next chapter in Port Stephens’ maritime history—we’d love to hear from you.
📧 Email your CV, contact details and availability to Kerrie Jeffreys at:

Come aboard. Be part of the history. Help us create what comes next. ⚓
