Vessel Name: | Aussie Blue |
Vessel Make/Model: | Hartley Queenslander 35 Ferro |
Hailing Port: | Port Pirie, South Australia |
Crew: | Geoff, Julie, Karen, Leighton |
About: | Geoff, Skipper and only experienced sailor. Julie, his long suffering wife of twenty years. Leighton, their son. Karen, Friend and darts player. |
Extra: | We bought her yesterday (subject to inspection) and she's a bit too big to ship home (well, maybe not, but it would cost as much as the boat did) so we will sail her home. We expect to leave mid September and be home by the end of the month. |
