The Australia National Maritime Museum is offering visitors the opportunity to climb on board Wild Oats XI as it visits the museum this Australia Day weekend.
From 26 – 28 January visitors can discover what life on a high-seas racer is like by speaking to representatives of Wild Oats XI who will be conducting tours of the vessel.
Guided tours will run from 10am – 12pm and 1 – 4pm. Numbers will be limited to 10 people on board at a time and for safety Wild Oats XI will only be open to visitors 10 years old and above.
Entry is included with the museum’s Big Ticket which allows unlimited access to everything the museum has open on the day including the magnificent HMB Endeavour replica, RAN Destroyer Vampire and interactive family exhibition Arctic Voices. Tickets are $32 adults, $20 child/concession or $79 families (2 adults + 3 children).
The Australian National Maritime Museum, in Darling Harbour, is open from 9.30am to 6pm daily in the summer period.
