1927 Sinclair and Morrison

LOCATION | VIC

Here is your chance to own a piece of Australia’s boating History.

Oomoobah – built by Sinclair and Morrison in Port Jackson in 1927 – this incredible 60foot timber cruiser pays homage to a by-gone era – but has been restored magnificently and is ready for its next phase of ownership.

Originally built for the Arnott’s family of Arnott’s biscuits fame – this boat is a collector’s item – with rare surprises at every turn.

Step on-board and you will feel like you are entering another world – where every piece of furniture, every lamp, every item feels like it’s been hand-picked – to give this boat a majestic feel. The history runs deep.

Sit down for dinner with 12 friends – at the table where General MacArthur dined in Papua New Guinea and discussed his next war strategy, or retire to the incredible Queen aft berth with an amazing large shower and all the comforts of a luxurious home.

The styling on Oomoobah is unparalleled. Relax and read a book in the expansive lounge area, make a coffee for yourself and sit out on the back deck and watch the world go by. Alternatively head to the upper deck, stretch out and fire the BBQ up and take in the view. After you’ve done that head to the bow and take in the sun.

Oomoobah has recently been Surveyed(July 23, 2020) – please see the attached. The results show a magnificently restored piece of Australia’s Maritime History – ready to step on board and enjoy.

This boat is being offered up for only the fifth time in its rich history. It is also being offered on an “as is” basis – fully furnished and ready to go.

So grab the keys, pack your bags and come aboard into a rare world that gives you a real insight into Australia’s iconic maritime history. She even comes with Oomoobah caps, polo shirts and rugby tops – they are all part of the package.
