Im Planning to buy a 28 ft Wharram catamaran in a few weeks in Cairns
with some friends $15000. There may be a 1/4 share for $4000
available ( can sell share at any
time) My plan is for it to be a whale and dolphin campaign boat + have
lots of fun on her. Sail her back to Brunswick for summer and GBR and
whales in winter. Anyone interested?

Im using face book and twitter a lot more to share info so if you want
more, become a friend. Leave a comment about whales to ensure your
