Pizzazz in Brisbane

So Pizzazz sailed into Brisbane on the 19th July, after an uncomfortable ride, again bits of no wind...bits of lots of wind, the worst stage of the trip. But Pizzazz got here safe and sound.
As soon as the boat got to the jetty at Rivergate Marina, the Quarantine guy's were there, shortly after that the Customs were there as well. They were all very friendly, Customs were on and off, but the quarantine guy's hung around. After 2-3 hours they were all gone. Pizzazz stayed over at Rivergate Marina until the Saturday, until we could sail/motor her down to her mooring in Southport. We were very disappointed with the condition we received Pizzazz in, after expecting the delivery crew to honour their "ten commandments", it was a poor show. We also read through the log and afterwards, realised that we were not told about everything that was broken, lost or given away. We had to wash and tidy Pizzazz after her trip, which is what the crew were supposed to do before handover.
