Held onboard the luxurious Blue Room, a stylish 85-foot glass vessel, guests donned their wigs, flares and 70s disco-chic gear to set sail for a trip around Sydney Harbour.
Hosted by Greg Newham, general manager for distribution itX, and Paul Sadler marketing manager itX, party-goers were treated to a four-hour cruise which started and finished at Star City Casino Wharf in Pyrmont last Friday.
“A hundred and seventy-nine people braved the thunderstorms to join us on the cruise this year,” said Sadler.
“As always, we have a theme for the night and this year’s theme was Disco/Funk.
"Resellers came dressed up in their funkiest outfits. Everyone who boarded the boat picked their choice of wig and grooved the night away with the 70’s/funk band ‘Boogie Fever’.
“We gave out prizes for the best dressed reseller, itX staff member and vendor and we held a dance-off competition too,” he added.
