About GoBoat

GoBoat makes the water accessible to everyone, in eco-friendly, easy-to-drive style.

GoBoat started in Copenhagen in 2014, and launched in Australia in 2017. GoBoat Australia is proudly Australian owned, and we’ve welcomed more than 350,000 guests aboard in our first few years. We offer urban planners, governments and property developers the opportunity to revitalise under-utilised waterways with a safe, family-friendly, instagrammable experience!

ABOUT THE VESSEL

Every one of our Danish-designed picnic boats is constructed in Australia from fibreglass which uses recycled PET bottles instead of virgin glass and is powered by a state-of-the-art electric motor direct from Germany.

How To Drive a GoBoat

The GoBoat is a state-of-the-art, Australian made vessel.
Stable, robust and great-looking, the GoBoat gives you the best possible user experience where the senses of freedom, wellbeing and togetherness can be enjoyed. Designed in Europe and made right here in Australia, our boats are state-of-the-art and use recycled materials in their construction. They set the standard for marine design, including their low-wash characteristics so they don’t disturb the environment. Characterised by fine lines and rounded edges, the design enhances social gatherings and allows for interaction with the stunning surroundings. The silent engines ensure a calm atmosphere, with the stage set for an undisturbed experience.
FLOAT YOUR SOCIAL BOAT
When you rent a GoBoat, you get a unique opportunity for togetherness in diverse and beautiful surroundings. The picnic table is placed centrally with enough seating for 8 people, encouraging joyful moments with good food, drink and conversations, while the shores slowly drift by.
