Organising your events with family-friendly boat hire to create memorable water experiences with personal service in Adelaide.
The Popeye business started in 1935, opened by Gordon Watts and has sailed along the Torrens River ever since. Sightseeing day cruises have long been a part of the business but under new management the product offerings have expanded, partly through the help of being fully licensed vessels. The Popeye has three vessels available to hire and a range of options to suit a variety of needs.

The Popeye is a family-owned business located in Adelaide, providing a unique and relaxing experience on the water. As a small operation, we take pride in our personal touch and flexibility, ensuring that every customer feels welcomed and well taken care of. Whether you're looking to explore the river at your own pace or celebrate a special occasion, we offer a variety of boats for hire to suit your needs. Our team is committed to making your outing enjoyable, no matter the time of day or night.

Operating from sunrise until well after sundown, we give you the freedom to enjoy the beauty of the water at any time. Whether you’re an early riser or someone who loves a sunset paddle, we are here to accommodate your schedule. Our fleet includes several different boats, each offering a comfortable and fun way to experience the river. Whether you prefer a more intimate ride on a small paddleboat or something bigger to share with friends, there’s a boat for everyone. We strive to cater to all preferences, ensuring that every outing is memorable.

At The Popeye, we aim to offer more than just a boat ride; we provide an experience that lets you unwind, enjoy the surroundings, and connect with nature. We understand that each guest has their own idea of the perfect day on the water, which is why we are flexible and accommodating. Our family-run business ensures that your time with us will be relaxed, enjoyable, and tailored to your needs. From casual outings to special events, we’re here to create an experience that exceeds your expectations.
