Kawana Way

Driving under the Kawana Way for the first time. I've driven over it many times in a car, but first time under it in a boat.

Bell's Creek

Launching the boat from Bell's Creek on a quiet Sunday morning.

Noosa Done Right

Noosa and her National Park from the ocean. A new way to get to Noosa National Park and avoid the trafic is by sea, it helps to have a boat capable of doing that job of course and this was my first journey on my new Waverider aluminium boat. And, luckily I got home just in time to find out that a lockdown was about to begin, so I got very lucky today with the weather and the timing.

Sea Legs

An amphibious Sea Legs boat at the Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show.

Transom On

The transom in on the boat. It is almost ready to float.

Stern

The stern of my new boat is coming together nicely. The reverse chine makes for a very soft ride in a light aluminium boat. The hull is becoming a boat.

Hull Takes Shape

The unmistakeable shape of a hull begins to form among the skeleton of aluminium bulkheads.

Favourite Boat

My favourite boat of the Sanctuary Cove boat show. The Axopar 28 Pilothouse runabout, a practical and functional boat that would be much fun to own if one could afford it.

Boat

A close up shot of the boat from yesterday's post as it nears the rock wall at Mooloolaba.

Afternoon Reflection

A large displacement boat approaches Mooloolah River in the afternoon glare of a watery reflection.

Lights On Boats

One of the brightly lit boats at the Mooloolaba Christmas Lights Boat Parade last night.

Wakeboarder

A popular activity at the lake is wakeboarding.  This boat is all set to go.

Boat Ride

I was lucky enough to get a ride on the lake in a great little alloy fishing boat.  Of course I had to take my camera with me, I was not going to miss showing you all the lake from a new perspective.

Queenstown

Picturesque Queenstown is a wonderful place to visit.

Ketch
