The opportunity to tick off a bucket list item is being offered as part of the Whitsundays Clipper Race Carnival in January.
As part of the two-week carnival, which is being held to celebrate the arrival of the Clipper Round the World Yacht Race, just 24 lucky people will have the opportunity to take part in a race around the Whitsunday Islands on a specialist ocean-racing yacht from the Clipper Race fleet.
The Clipper Round the World Yacht Race is a unique event that pairs experienced skippers with novice crew on an epic 40,000 nautical mile voyage around the world.
The Clipper Race Day, on Friday, January 19, is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to do something that many people spend their whole lives dreaming about.
So if you have ever wondered what it's like to be on board one of the 70-foot ocean-going yachts in the Clipper Round the World Yacht Race, now's your chance!
You can participate as crew on board a magnificent 70-foot ocean racing yacht, or sit back, relax, and enjoy the exhilaration of the experience.
With plenty of refreshments on board, it promises to be a once-in-a-lifetime event for 24 lucky people.
