A Real Tournament, Not a Themed Party
We run genuine tournament poker: blind structures calibrated by experienced directors, certified dealers in full uniform, RFID chip sets and digital clock displays. Guests who have only played kitchen-table Hold'em leave feeling like they have sat a final table in Monte Carlo — because the production standard is identical.
Your charter sails from Station Pier into Port Phillip Bay, timed so the bubble bursts against a Melbourne sunset. Between levels, guests step onto open decks for champagne service while our floor team re-seats tables and updates the prize pool in real time.
Everything the Final Table Deserves
Every booking is engineered end-to-end by our Melbourne production team — no third-party handoffs, no compromise on detail.
Championship Tables
Casino-weight speed cloth, padded rails and dedicated dealers on every table — shipped aboard, levelled and felt-checked before doors open.
Tournament Direction
A dedicated tournament director runs blind levels, breaks, colour-ups and the prize pool on broadcast-grade timing software.
Custom Prize Pools
Trophies, engraved bracelets, travel vouchers or branded merchandise — we structure the pool to suit your crowd and budget.
Tableside Hospitality
Roving waiters, a dedicated cocktail list and canapés served between hands so the action never pauses.
Media Coverage
A roving photographer and optional live-stream rig capture every all-in, every bad beat and the final hand.
Player Concierge
Registration desk, seating draws, bounty chips and personalised player cards handled entirely by our crew.
Choose Your Structure
One buy-in, one life. The purest format — deep 25,000-chip stacks, 30-minute levels and a trophy that actually means something. Ideal for serious players and corporate groups who want genuine competition across a five-hour afternoon sail.
Fifteen-minute levels and cash bounties on every head keep the room loud and the felt flying. Perfect for celebration crowds where the social energy matters as much as the cards — most tables finish inside three hours.
Win your table to advance. Our team format pairs colleagues or friends into squads racing for combined chips — the format that turns a mixed-skill guest list into genuine theatre at the final table.

From Brief to Final Hand
Consultation
A 20-minute call with a senior producer to lock your date, headcount, format and the liner that fits your crowd.
Structure Design
We draft blind levels, prize pool and run-sheet, then send a single-page plan you can approve in one read.
Boarding Day
Our crew builds the card room in three hours while guests board to a welcome drink at Station Pier.
Final Table
The tournament plays out under lights on open water. We strike the room overnight — you keep only the trophy photos.
I have played the Aussie Millions. The structure, dealers and production on that boat were every bit as serious — and the view was better.

Tournament Questions
Do guests need poker experience?
No. Roughly a third of our players are complete beginners. Dealers give a ten-minute rules briefing before cards go in the air, and our staff coach discreetly through the first level. Experienced players can request a separate high-visibility table.
Is gambling for money legal on the charter?
Our events run as social tournaments — prizes are trophies, merchandise and vouchers, never cash stakes, which keeps every event compliant with Victorian gaming regulations. Guests enjoy the full competitive theatre without real-money wagering.
What happens in bad weather?
Port Phillip Bay is sheltered, and our card rooms sit inside climate-controlled salons regardless of conditions. In the rare case of a marine safety warning we reschedule at no charge — every booking carries a weather guarantee.
Can we brand the tables and chips?
Yes — custom felts, branded chip faces, dealer shirts and trophy engraving are all available. Most corporate clients add their logo to the felt and the final-table backdrop for photography.
