\\ TSMV Tiakina Our group of around 15 enjoyed a casual Sunday cruise, down to Quarantine Island and back, lasting around 1.5 hours. Chef Jared Gee of G cuisine @ Cilantro created an amazing Paella Mixta while we relaxed and enjoyed the wine and the delicious coffee the boys from Strictly Coffee were making. By the time we reached our turning point, lunch was served. The Tiakina crew cater to anyone and everyone interested in chartering the boat for an event, corporate occasion or just for a casual cruise like us. With set packages to choose from as a starting point, you can then work with Lindon and Paula to create a trip all of your own. From three hour peninsula cruises with cocktails and canapés, to overnight trips to Moeraki, stopping to catch your dinner on the way which is then cooked at the world famous Fleur’s Seafood Restaurant, to Fiordland and Marlborough Sounds charters for those wanting a bit more time away from reality, the Tiakina does it all. The Tiakina can play host to up to fifty people for functions. With many years of experience managing events of all sorts, Lindon and Paula take great pride in going beyond client expectations. The combination of superb comfort, beautiful food, supreme service and Otago’s lovely harbour make a day or evening aboard an unforgettable one. Intimate weddings, corporate or private photo shoots, bridal packages, casino nights, themed evenings, masquerade balls or graduation charters. You are only limited by your imagination! Our little group left the Tiakina buzzing with ideas of a 25th birthday party cruise to be planned, and of an upcoming on-board engagement party plan that now needed to be discussed with the unknowing fiancé. A stunning vessel, an amazing team, and endless options for luxury on the water. What more could you ask for? Call Paula on 027 257 6543 or go to www.tiakina.com for more information on planning your cruise. A huge thank you to Lindon & Paula, Lesley and the team at Strictly Coffee, and Jared Gee of G cuisine for our outing! www.edinburghrealty.co.nz 7
